Focuses on the main problem in Belfast, think you have to be from here to understand it but maybe if you're in the same situation somewhere else you'll understand it too - beat by HipHopCrib - "In The Ghetto"

Lyrics
Take Back
Verse 1:
In our society we’re ruled by politicians who could
Be employed as actors and convince Hollywood
The Peace Process just a script for tragedy
20 years still goin now they’ve made into comedy
But it’s really just a mockery of democracy
I live in a split city I refuse to let it kill me
This is history, fundamentally, we’re reliving it
Our hate does not belong in the 21st century
My generation didn’t fight the troubles
Paint the murals, feel the bombs shake buildings to rubble
Still yet we act like we were born
With the bitterness in our blood
Spose the parents are to blame
Things int ever gonna change
Bridge:
What’s it gonna take to make you see?
Arrogance’ll be the death of you (x2)
Chorus:
Take Back (Your memories I don’t need em)
Take Back (Your words don’t need to hear em)
Take Back (Your fighting over grass + mud)
Take Back (Your hate don’t belong in my blood) (x2)
Verse 2:
Throw away your Kit-Kat wrapper
The break is over
Allowed ample time to assess the situation
If you’re not capable
Don’t attempt to rule a nation
Where people can’t civilly address their problems
Without someone getting shot in attempt to solve em
The brits government are fools but stormonts hardly any better
We’re a terminal lost cause who refuses to get better
And there’s innocent people played in this mix too
Progress to certain bigots is impossible to do
So then we’ve got stale mate, inciting religious hatred
Rioting n back to square one, on n sling your hook
We want this done
Bridge
Chorus
Verse 3:
I know this songs been done before me
Doubt this’ll be the last
Tell me how it helps
Daily reliving your past
If you’ve no choice fair play
But don’t try n make things worse
Getting involved in paramilitaries you’ll end up in a hurst
Each moments a new chance to try n change the state
Voice your feelings know 90 odd % will relate
It isn’t rocket science to focus on the future
Do you really want these feuds to go to the grave with you?
I’m not here to rant I’m here to be obvious
Think it’s pretty safe to say we’ve all had enough
I’m all for world peace but what bout peace on our own streets
Can’t help others if we can’t stand on our own two feet
Bridge
Chorus
Keep up your work :) Nice track
