War and Crime — текст песни (Lucky Dube)

Every where in the world
People are fighting for freedom
Nobody knows what is right
Nobody knows what is wrong
The black man say it` s the white man
The white man say it` s the black man
Indians say it` s the coloureds
Colourededs say it` s everyone
Your mother didn` t tell you the truth
Cause my father didn` t tell me the truth
Nobody knows what is wrong
And what is right
How long is this gonna last
Cause we` ve come so far so fast


When it started, you and I were not there so
Why don` t we
Bury down apartheid
Fight down war and crime
Racial discrimination
Tribal discrimination


You and I were not there when it started
We don` t know where it` s coming from
And where it` s going
So why don` t we


I` m not saying this
Because I` m a coward
But I` m thinking of the lives
That we lose everytime we fight
Killing innocent people
Women and children yeah
Who doesn` t know about the good
Who doesn` t know about the wars
Your mohtre didn` t tell you the truth
Cause my fathre did not tell me the truth
Yeah


Black man say it` s the white man
White man say it` s the black man
Indians say it` s the coloureds
Coloureds say it` s everyone


When it started we were not there
We know where we come from
But we don` t know where we` re going
So why don` t we


Bury down apartheid
Fight down war and crime
Racial discrimination
Tribal discrimination
