Текст песни War and Crime - Lucky Dube

Everywhere in the world
People are fighting for freedom
(Freedom, yeah)
Nobody knows what is right
Nobody knows what is wrong
The black man say it's the white man (white man)
The white man say it's the black man (black man)
Indians say it's the coloureds
Coloureds say it's everyone
(Ooh, yeah)
Your mother didn't tell you the truth
'Cause my father didn't tell me the truth
Nobody knows what is wrong and what is right
How long is this gonna last?
'Cause we've come so far so fast

When it started, you and I were not there
Why don't we

Bury down apartheid (apartheid)
Fight down war and crime (crime)
Racial discrimination (discrimination)
Tribal discrimination
Bury down apartheid (apartheid)
Fight down war and crime (crime)
Racial discrimination (discrimination)
Tribal discrimination
(Ooh, yeah)

You and I were not there when it started
We don't know where it's coming from and where it's going
So why don't we

I am not saying this
Because I'm a coward
But I'm thinking of the lives
That we lose everytime we fight
Killing innocent people
Women and children, yeah
Who doesn't know about the government
Who doesn't know about the wars going on
Your mother didn't tell you the truth
'Cause my father did not tell me the truth, yeah
Black man say it's the white man (white man)
And white man say it's the black man (black man)
Indians say it's the coloureds
Coloureds say it's everyone

When it started, we were not there
We know where we come from but we don't know where we're going
So why don't we

Bury down apartheid (apartheid)
Fight down war and crime (crime)
Racial discrimination (discrimination)
Tribal discrimination
(Ooh, yeah)
Bury down apartheid (apartheid)
Fight down war and crime (crime)
Racial discrimination (discrimination)
Tribal discrimination
(Ooh, yeah)

Bury down apartheid (apartheid)
Fight down war and crime (crime)
Racial discrimination
