S.o. 2011 Lyrics

The sheer ferocity of this disorder took many by surprise, no one were told could

Have predicted this level of violence. But in truth, age -old tensions between

Sections of this community and the police are still a significant issue. All that

Was needed was a spark to ignite that anger. It came last Thursday night when

Police shot dead a local man. And now even community leaders, while condemning

Saturday Night's violence, point to the continuing unanswered questions about that

Fatal shooting as a catalyst for the disorder.

Smash the window, slight crescendo. Grab Nintendo's, it's not essential.

People think we're mad, we're mental running from Selfridge to Kendals, JD Sports, 02

We'll get to.

London was the start the central I don't know if it was meant to

But it's spread like wildfire with people that light fires Get together like choirs

To acquire, they feel they deserve.

Rest of the world like they got some nerve. I hopped the curb. I saw the police.

Decided to turn.

Down the back alley, eh. Down the back alley, eh.

Getting so hot like I'm living in Cali. I need to cover my face with a bally.

Back full of clothes, Roberto Cavalli. This one guy I thought was getting to Pally.

Drawing attention, yo my intervention. Just get away without drawing attention.

My thoughts of submerging. See what's happened in Ferguson.

Police somehow they keep murdering. Poor people, they start hurtling

Objects even at the good servicemen. Institutionalise racism.

A reason why we keep blaming them. For what they do, but I'm not shaming them.

But we gon' riot.
