AND HERE I STAND

And here I stand, redskin fist of power Clawing at the strains of racism It turns to black, 'cos you're so credible But you keep losing track 'Cos you don't see, my color in your melting pot of love Where every fucker's brown So here I stand, knee deep in your soiled heritage (That's) so charmingly underground

So here I stand, (Stand S-T-A-N-D)(x4)

So here we stand, I'm looking at my sad eyes, sad eyes They slowly turn to rage Oh what a shame, I can't control my basic nigga-rage And lust for violence

So here we are, the cry goes out for war London's East is burning to the ground So here we stand, blackened fist of power Same old scarred-up faces we condemn
