Fear

'Go back to your own country,
We don't want you here,
You fucking foreigners,
Stay back, don't come near'
'We're Brits and we're proud,
Our country is dear,
So fuck off back home,
I want this country clear
Of the vermin that wander
Our streets causing fear,
Go back to your country,
You can't fucking stay here'
You do realise that this is just a piece of land?
Being born here, being born there,
Doesn't mean you have to stand
Still, still I suppose it's just your choice
I should probably allow it,
Let us all have a voice...
But you're causing fear,
Yet it's fear that your fighting,
What's foreign is scary, what's unknown is here,
And you think it's too different,
Is that right? Am I near?
I just can't get my head
Around what it is that you think,
When you bleed is it red?
When you fart does it stink?
Because I can smell dread
And I think that's the link.
'Close up the borders!
Don't let them in!
They are scum, they are vermin,
They are hatred and sin'
They're people,
They're humans,
They're animals,
They're nature,
They're love,
They're hope,
They're hopeless,
They're hate,
They're happiness,
They're sadness,
They're regret,
They're fear,
They're fearful,
They're fearless,
They're confused,
They're lost
You're people,
You're humans,
You're animals,
You're nature,
You're love,
You're hope,
You're hopeless,
You're hate,
You're happiness,
You're sadness,
You're regret,
You're fear,
You're fearful,
You're fearless,
You're confused,
You're lost.
In the end we're all scared,
We all don't know,
Let's learn together,
Let's together grow.
I know it sounds like a sermon,
Like I'm preaching blind hope,
But with understanding,
It will surely be easier to cope?
