White Saviour Anthem Lyrics

I grew up in the slums of suburbia

Just a small acreage alone with my dad and mum

Didn't have much, though I was a gifted child

Parents had never heard of a college fund

I got a loan and after almost two terms

Lib arts degree taught me all that I could learn

I hit the streets, I was destined to educate

They need to see they're complicit in systemic hate

I took a break to the bucks for a brew

It's not fair trade, so no tip for you

Burn down the white man

Then we'll eat the rich

Hey you, white saviours

You're jerks and narcissists

My neighbours a black guy he works at a labour job

He'd be alright except he's not a marxist

When I post for justice, he don't like the pic

I've never seen him raise a fist

Could he be a racist? I'm not like celebrities who do it for the media

I don't need the limelight, those pigs make me sick

They don't understand, say "we're all on the same side

And what if we just tried

To do our bit!" But a bit's not enough

It's over that's it

If they'd listen to me it might finally hit

Burn down the white man

Then we'll eat the rich

Hey you, white saviours

You're jerks and narcissists

I don't have enough

I've been crushed by society

So I take lots of stuff

From my bourgeois tech company

Burn down the white man

Then we'll eat the rich

Hey you, white saviours

You're jerks and narcissists

Burn down the white man

Then we'll eat the rich

Hey you, white saviours

We're jerks and narcissists
