تکست آهنگ I Predict A Riot

Recent events been hard to swallow but try to follow this/
Let’s take it up back to Tottenham and start right at the top of this/
Police shot this kid, Yeah he had a gun on him but he hadn’t even popped a clip/
It was hidden in his sock and shit/
I ain’t saying he was a saint, he could have been the opposite/
The facts remains the same, it’s not the Coppers prerogative/
They said he fired first, that he shot and hit.../
..A police radio, but the bullet lodged in it wasn’t his/
He shouldn’t have been slain by them officers/
Witnesses said that they held him down while Coppers shot at him/
His family needed to be set straight about the events of the day/
So they went to the Fed station thought they could explain/
But they’re still waiting for explanations the next day/
While local estates filled with revenge,resent and hate/
They held a peaceful protest to try and pressure the Jakes /
Never thought it would have escalated and ended this way /
Police hit a girl with a baton in the face /
And any trace of peace there was vanished and erased /
Police panicked and acted in an arrogant way /
And any fear people had left for them vanished that day

CHORUS:
I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That’s what the people say )

The fire started in North but soon spread literally/
Newsreports, all you saw was kids filling the streets/
2011 and life’s just messy/
That’s what I thought watching London burn live on telly/
I heard they started looting Hugo Boss in Sloane Square/
So if you a boss named Hugo you advised not to go there/
Certain man went in on this smashing and grabbing ting hard/
A guy got a bottle through his window while he sat in his yard/
How many youths are really in this to make a difference?/
And how many youths looting just ‘cos they opportunistic?/
They smashed glass doors and wrecked stores in/
But Cameron didn’t make it back ‘till 11 the next morning/
it’s spreading, wherever you bop there’s mad pressure/
Not just London but Birmingham, Notts and Manchester/
Shit, I’m hearing Liverpool and Bristol too/
Lord knows what will happen when these youths bring their pistols through/

CHORUS:
I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That’s what the people say )

Let me tell you something bout this system we’re living in/
Where do you think these loots learnt pillaging?/
Crooked politician with a wicked grin/
Sanctified villains in positions of influence/
The police have acted like a gang for years/
Now youths bang on them like they bang on their peers/
What’s changed is the lack of their fear/
Let me slow it down so the facts can become clear/
They marginalized the youth, its happened for years/
So no surprise they reacted like savage animals here/
What happens next? Well that’s anybody’s guess/
Utter lawlessness, get no response if you call the feds?/
Don’t nobody see this is exactly what they want/
To give police justification to come and hunt us with guns/
So before all that we need to all fall back/
UK fall back ,UK FALL BACK!/
I can hear helicopters, I can hear sirens/
I can see fires, I can see violence/
So before all that, we need to all fall back/
UK FALL BACK, UK FALL BACK!/

CHORUS:

I predict a riot, I predict a riot ( That’s what the people say )
