If the government refuse to develop the region
And continue the marginalization and injustice
The youth, that's what coming after us
And it will be more brutal than what we have done
If the government refuse to develop the region
And continue the marginalization and injustice
The youth, that's what coming after us
And it will be more brutal than what we have done
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Calling me a monster, calling us fake
No way, no way, no way
Calling me a monster just 'cause we said
[Verse 1: Burna Boy]
We're from the block where it rains
Where we create barricades
Keep opposition away
That's why we strapped with AK's
Don't get kidnapped from your place
Cause it could happen today
Not knowing how to behave
That is a sign that you may
Just lose your life, what a waste
Your body found in a lake
You fucked around and the fisherman
Found you drowning for days
You know we come from a place
Where people smile, but it's fake
How could they smile?
If you look around, they surrounded by pain
I've seen the sky turn to grey
It took the light from the day
It's like the heads of the state
Ain't comprehending the hate
That the oppressed generate
When they've been working like slaves
To get some minimum wage
You turn around and you blame
Them for their anger and rage
Put them in shackles and chains
Because of what they became
We are the monsters you made
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Calling me a monster, calling us fake
You make the Minotaur, the dinosaur wake
Calling me a monster just 'cause we said
No way, no way, no way
Calling me a monster, make no mistake
That there's only so much that you can take
La-di-da-da-do-di-da-da-do-day
We are the monsters you made
[Verse 2: Burna Boy]
I bet they thought it was cool
Probably thought we was fools
When we would break all the rules
And skip them classes in school
Because the teacher dem teaching
What the white man dem teaching
Dem European teachings in my African school
So fuck the classes in school
Fuck Mungo Park and the fool
That said they found river Niger
They've been lying to you
Ain't no denying the truth
See what I'm tryin' to do
Is draw the line for the mothers crying
We're dying as youths
Come walk a mile in my shoes
See if you smile at the truth
See if you digest your food
That's when you might have a clue
Of what the fuck we go through
You're fucking lucky if you
Live through the day, better pray
That God always staying with you
Ain't fuckin' safe, any day
The reaper'll be coming for you
We need a change and it ain't no way I'ma take an excuse
My niggas findin' a way
Or fuckin' smile in the grave
This is the price that you pay
We are the monsters you made
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Calling me a monster, calling us fake
You make the Minotaur, the dinosaur wake
Calling me a monster just 'cause we said
No way, no way, no way
Calling me a monster, make no mistake
That there's only so much that you can take
La-di-da-da-do-di-da-da-do-day
We are the monsters you made
[Outro: Ama Ata Aidoo]
Since we met your people five hundred years ago
Look at us, we have given everything
You are still taking
In exchange for that, we have got nothing
Nothing
And you know it
But don't you think that this is over now?
Over where?
Is it over?
Ako vlada odbije da se razvije u regiji
I nastaviti marginalizacije i nepravda
Mlade, to je ono što dolazi poslije nas
I to će biti brutalniji od onoga što smo uradili
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Pozivanje me čudovište, nazivajući nas lažni
Nema šanse, nema šanse, nema šanse
Pozivanje me čudovište, samo zato što smo rekli
[Verse 1: Burna Boy]
Mi smo iz bloka gdje pada kiša
Gdje smo stvoriti barikade
Držite opozicija dalje
Zato smo vezali s AK
Nemojte se otet iz svoje mesto
Zato što bi se moglo dogoditi danas
Ne znajući kako da se ponašaju
To je znak da ste možda
Samo izgubiti svoj život, kakav otpad
Vaše telo pronađeno u jezeru
Jebala si se i ribara
Našli ste se davi danima
Znaš da dolazi iz mjesta
Gdje ljudi smile, ali to je lažna
Kako su mogli da smile?
Ako pogledate oko, oni su okruženi bol
Vidio sam nebo red da sivo
To je svetlost dana
To je kao šefovi države
Ne sagleda mržnje
To potlačenih generirati
Kada su radili kao robovi
Da biste dobili neke minimalne zarade
Okreneš i krivim
Im na ljutnju i bijes
Stavite ih u okove i lance
Zbog onoga što su postali
Mi smo čudovišta ste napravili
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Pozivanje me čudovište, nazivajući nas lažni
Možete napraviti Minotaur, dinosaura Wake
Pozivanje me čudovište, samo zato što smo rekli
Nema šanse, nema šanse, nema šanse
Pozivanje me čudovište, da ne bude zabune
Da postoji samo toliko da možete uzeti
La-di-da-da-do-di-da-da-do-dan
Mi smo čudovišta ste napravili
[Verse 2: Burna Boy]
Kladim se da su mislili da je to cool
Vjerojatno smo mislili da je budale
Kada bismo razbiti sva pravila
I preskočite ih nastavu u školi
Budući da je nastava nastavnik DEM
Ono što belci DEM nastave
Dem evropskih učenja u mojoj afričke škole
Dakle, jebeš nastavu u školi
Jebi ga Mungo Park i budala
Piše da pronađena rijeke Niger
Oni su laže
Nije Ne može se poreći istinu
Vidjeti ono što ja pokušavam učiniti
Se podvuče crta za majke plače
Umiremo kao mladića
Dođite hodati kilometar u mojim cipelama
Vidi da li osmijeh na istinu
Vidi da li probaviti hranu
To je kada možete imati pojma
Onoga koji kurac idemo kroz
Ti si jebeno sretan ako
Live kroz dan, bolje moli
Da je Bog uvijek kod tebe
Nije jebeno sigurno, bilo koji dan
U reaper'll doći za tebe
Treba nam promjena i nije ni na koji način I'ma uzeti izgovor
Moje crnje findin 'način
Ili jebeni osmijeh u grobu
To je cijena koju morate platiti
Mi smo čudovišta ste napravili
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
Pozivanje me čudovište, nazivajući nas lažni
Možete napraviti Minotaur, dinosaura Wake
Pozivanje me čudovište, samo zato što smo rekli
Nema šanse, nema šanse, nema šanse
Pozivanje me čudovište, da ne bude zabune
Da postoji samo toliko da možete uzeti
La-di-da-da-do-di-da-da-do-dan
Mi smo čudovišta ste napravili
[Outro: Ama Ata Aidoo]
Pošto smo se upoznali vaši ljudi prije pet stotina godina
Pogledaj nas, dali smo sve
Ste i dalje uzima
U zamjenu za to, mi nemamo ništa
ništa
I ti to znaš
Ali zar ne mislite da je to gotovo?
Tamo gde?
Je li gotovo?
