Текст песни Double Standards (feat. Sampha) - Ghetts , Sampha

Check the foundations
Structural imbalance
Calling Double Standards
I fell on my face

Hands in the rubble
People walking over me
I was one of them and kept walking away
I kept walking away
Away
Away
Away
Away
I kept walking away
Away
Away
Away
I kept walking away

Look around the world all I see is Double Standards
A mum naming her son Mohammed is a madness
Jacks in the airport with drugs in his baggage
And security are troubling Mohammed bout a sandwich
I was on the phone with a pal of mine
They asked me why their helping Ukraine and not Palestine
And I've replied brown skin we was so whitewashed
Laughing at names we had problems pronouncing
Kwam said that his name is Jerome
And he's from the Caribbean just so people leave him alone
And I remember it was fufu and voodoo jokes
Until he found the same ting that gave the zulu hope
Sarah's dad hates blacks but her babies mixed race
And all he's thinking is she may have been raped
Imagine being light skin and grandads racist
And every time your there you hear an African statement
Look around the world, all I see is Double Standards
Even Mark Zuckerberg covers up his cameras
Steve Jobs never let his kids use an iPad
And my thinks that I'm bad "MAD"
Nye had no TV until she was a grown up
I used to think what the fuck when she told us
The government have got us in a chokehold
A hero if I kill for my country
And a villain if I kill for my postcode
Only fighting for my freedom if it comes to it
You gotta use your brain before you put a gun to his
I had to loose my way before I understood the trip
The good die young the cemetery's full of shoulda been
There's days I'm doing more and saying less
What's war wars rich white men playing chess
What for well it's all about the land they finesse
God mad man and then man made a mess

Check the foundations
Structural imbalance
Calling double standards
I fell on my face

Hands in the rubble
People walking over me
I was one of them and kept walking away
I kept walking away
Away
Away
Away
Away
Away
Away

They giving brothers life sentences for drugs
When a paedophile will probably get less than 20 months
In the same day same court same judge
We only break the law cus the laws try to break us
So how am I meant to be corrected
When they put my name and address in the papers
But a child molesters identities protected
Is anyone addressing these failures
I just spoke to my mum ahh man
She said police just killed another unarmed man
Everyone complains
But nobody wan go back home it come like we don't love our land
Everyone's in Ghana in December
Come back home and start complaining about the weather
Raheem could score a hundred goals
When he miss a penalty it's monkey jokes whoa
And they got everybody clapping for the NHS
But they don't wanna put no cash into the NHS
Soon it's gunna be what happened to the NHS
Politicians getting paid more than teachers
Satan getting prays more than Jesus
Most bad bitches ain't artists
But they still paid for their features
It's the realest coming through the speakers
Yeezys the only reason we wore Adidas
And I don't wear Balenciaga anymore
And now I've said it fashion week probably won't have me seated
Deep it here's a little insight
Peep it there goes my invite
I preed it no one's speaking that's why I'm a outsider on the inside
I got beef with the HMRC
The tax man jacks man takes half my p
I'm looking at the total blue can't you see
Every time I pay tax it's hard to breathe
I don't know if I'm parro man
But I can talk about killings and drug dealings
But Black Rose is my only tune that's shadow banned
