TH9 Lyrics
The police a chase we, the beast can't catch me
When I see his big stick, him deal me a lick
Tower hamlets nine have to go free
Not even a fine for the tower hamlets nineYouth connection, stop this infection
Defending, defending, defending the community
Some fascists in brick lane looking for a fight
Police doing nothing, one rule for black, one rule for white
And we're about to strikeTime is getting short, elections in May
Give the fascist man a gunshot, that's the only way
There are many different languages spoken in this land
But only one language that the fascist understandWhy don't you
Kick the fuckers in the head
Kick the fuckers in the head
Why don't you?Every institution in this city, right is prejudiced against us
There's no accountability, there's no servant of the police force
Or his di or whatever, who is accountable for his attitudesOur parents had to sit tight, weren't allowed to fight back
Physically just a mental strain, restraint!
Now I think, I've found a remedy to this recurring pain
Not passive but resistantYour assumptions were wrong like coffee without milk
Too black to strong, for too many years man you've had your fun
Now it's time, now it's time for us to hit and run
'Cause we're second generation but were not second class
Now the wrath of the Asian will hit you like a blast
Now the wrath of the Asian will hit you like a blastIn this time there is no justice or peace
In this time there is no trust in the police
Quddus Ali, saw no justice or peace
Altab Ali, saw no justice or peace
Stephen Lawrence, saw no justice or peace
Too many people still waiting for release
