Lowkey - Terrorist? Lyrics
[Intro]So, we must ask ourselves, what is the dictionary definition of Terrorism?"The systematic use of terror, especially as a means of coercion."But what is terror?According to the dictionary I hold in my hand,"Terror is violent or destructive acts, such as bombingcommitted by groups in order to intimidate a population or government into granting their demands."So what's a terrorist?[Chorus]They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isWhen they put it on me, I tell them thisI'm all about peace and love (Peace and love)They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isInsulting my intelligenceOh how these people judge (People judge)[Verse 1]It seems like the Rag-heads and Paki's are worrying your DadBut your dad's favorite food is curry and kebabIt's funny but it's sad how they make your mummy hurry with her bagsRather read The Sun than study all the factsTell me, what's the bigger threat to human society;B.A.E Systems or home made I.E.D's?Remote controlled drones, killing off human livesOr man with home made bomb committing suicideI know you were terrified when you saw the towers fallIt's all terror but some forms are more powerfulIt seems nuts, how could there be such agony?When more Israeli's die from peanut allergiesIt's like the definition didn't ever existI guess it's all just depending who your nemesis isIrrelevant how eloquent the rhetoric peddler isThey're telling fibs, now tell us who the terrorist is[Chorus]They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isWhen they put it on me, I tell them thisI'm all about peace and love (Peace and love)They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isInsulting my intelligenceOh how these people judge (People judge)[Verse 2]Lumumba was democracyMossadegh was democracyAllende was democracyHypocrisy it bothers meCall you terrorists if you don't wanna be a colonyRefuse to bow down to a policy of robberiesIs terrorism my lyrics? (is it?)When more Vietnam vets kill themselves after the war than die in itThis is very basicOne nation in the world has over a thousand military basesThey say it's religion, when clearly it isn'tIt's not just Muslims that oppose your imperialismIs Hugo Chavez a Muslim? Nah... I didn't think soIs Castro a Muslim? Nah... I didn't think soIt's like the definition didn't ever existI guess it's all just depending who your nemesis isIrrelevant how eloquent the rhetoric peddler isThey're telling fibs, now tell us who the terrorist is[Chorus]They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isWhen they put it on me, I tell them thisI'm all about peace and love (Peace and love)They're calling me a terroristLike they don't know who the terror isInsulting my intelligenceOh how these people judge (People judge)[Outro](You think that I don't know, but I know, I know, I know...You think we don't know, but we know...)
