Lyrics for Doun Di Road
Heavy heavy terror on the rampage But don't you worry, it is so near Fratricide is only the first phase Yes the violence of the oppressor running wild Them picking up we youth dem fi sus How we prophesying a black, a black, a black conquest And the national front is on the rampage Making fire bombs to burn with Terror fire, terror fire reach we Such a suffering we suffering in this burning age of rage No place to run to get gun And the violence coming up inside So in the heat of the ambush you just turn You turn on your brother and you lick him and you lash him And you stab him and you kill him And the violence coming up inside How the history should take such a rough road Causing us this bitterness and pain on the way It's a room full of fuck, you can't walk out Fratricide is only the first phase With brother fighting brother stabbing brother Them just killing off them one another But when you see brother blood just flow Youth I'll fighting then you know That the first phase must come to an end And time for the second phase to show
