Refugee response
People movin xthe globe
With no final destination
No not a movie
Pure Dehumanization
Future's upon them now
Homes. The road
cardboard n plastic
Far cry from fantastic
Europeans crying out loud
We dont need em
They looking for life n freedom
Promised land
Garden of Eden
Countries counting quotas
Cherry pickin
Apealing to the voters
Kids crying n hungry
Bodys tired n bleeding
Facin carrying day horrors
The growing number
Of deaths mountin
Suffocation n drowning
mercy were r u now
People from many different nation's
Washin up on beaches
On u holiday destinations
World leaders short of answers
No imaginations
Mercy were r u now
Borders n barriers
Death walks fenced in with
Barbed wire
Have u got room round u table
Would you hold out a hand
If u was able
Theres millons on the move
Dont believes the papers
Typed up by well paid
University educated haters
World problem
Human kind need answers
Weve seen it on our plasmas
Wave of desperation
Looking for
The milk of human kindness
In the land of milk n honey
But there not getting in
Charity wearin thin
So desperate times
Desperate measures
Locked in airtight lorries
Contorted faces
Packed in with decaying bodies and
Human fecies
Theres a price to pay
For watchin human suffering
From a distance
Leaders fighting over quotas
Pasifying voters
there havin banquits at. there summits
Paid for by our taxes
Its really something
When human life
Ammounts to nothing
After trade deals with the
European union
Ment theres agreed
No borders integration
Accepting countless eastern Europeans
They have a pigmintation right
To be here
Something about this picture
Just aint right
There not given aid
inside cages
Human rights
Advanced nations tearing up the pages
Eventually we will accept them
With there trauma n persistence
Will u put up a resistance
Would you
Walk that far for life
Sometimes life aint so good
Ain't all about what u been earnin
Some wont piss on others who are burning
Would it be headline
On the news
Looked at from a slightly
Different angle
If
Thousands of uk citizens drowned
escaping persicution in the english channel
Mercy were r u now
Please dont turn your backs
