Lyrics
This mornin I woke up, and I thought of your face
then thought of the pain I'd feel if I never saw it again
I had a dream you got deported. I saw you boardin a plane
I woke up in the night, cryin, sweating, calling your name
You looked for love but found lonelyness. "Only if." is all we could say
Only if there weren't a wall in the way
Only if I formed a plan so we all could escape
Or dug an underground tunnel with a fork and a spade
You could crawl through the cave, and meet me at the other side
I'd be there with two tickets. Me and you, another life
????
Bustin jokes, smokin po. Livin free under the sunny sky
But in reality, I know my brother stuck inside
My body gets the shivers every time I hear my brotha cry
I'm having madd visions every time I go to shut my eyes
See my brotha die in prison. Can't begin to wonder why...
I'll be at the gates when they free you
Keep yourself to yourself and do what you need to
I feel you for real, cause I know what you've been through
I miss you. I wish you were here.
I think it's sickenin. They say you're not a British citizen
When you been living in Britain ever since you was a little'in
Cause your religioun, they wanna treat you like an idiot
But they the silly pricks. They don't know what being civil is
My brother fell victim to the system that we're livin in
They're turning??? into a prison for the immigrants
I saw the bluprints in the paper and it was hideous
What's the outcome? Guilty or innocent?
