Every Statue Must Come Down

{Verse 1]

I screamed both of my lungs out

Still couldn’t get my words out

I’m legging it up your road

I know you never check your phone

But it’s all of things we’ve been talking bout

Late night parked outside your building

Can’t you see this breath, coming out of my mouth like cloud

Can’t you see this sweat on my forehead, turn it up loud

[Chorus]

Every statue

Every statue

Every statue

Must come down

I’m telling you

These man tried to live forever

But no one lives forever

Every statue it

Must come down

I’m telling you

[Verse 2]

Been fighting since we were youts

Been fighting since primary school

Dad told me the world weren’t fair

Work ten times harder son and climb the stair

And my nose it felt so big back then

There were days I prayed to change it

But you see today we ran man out the ends

Us lot streaming out the station

[Chorus]

Every statue

Every statue

Every statue

Must come down

I’m telling you

These man tried to live forever

But no one lives forever

Every statue it

Must come down

I’m telling you

[Refrain]

I know I know it’s gonna be alright

(repeat til fade)

[Outro: Spoken]

Respect to Clive Driscoll

But unfortunately it’s still fuck the old bill from where i’m standing

You see me I was born in Whipps Cross hospital

You can’t turn up PR stunting when you never put no money in

And we still want justice for Grenfell

We still want justice for Grenfell
