You know - like where you really from The question seems simple but the answer’s kinda long I could tell ‘em Wembley But I don’t think that’s what they want & I don’t wanna tell em more Cos anything i say is wrong Britain’s where I’m born And I love a cuppa tea & that But tea ain’t from Britain it’s from where my DNA is at And where my genes are from That’s where they make my jeans and that Then send them over to NYC where I stack my ps and that Skinheads meant I never really liked the British flag & I just got the shits when I went back to pak My ancestors Indian but India was not for us But my people built the West - we even gave the skinheads swastikas Now everybody everywhere want their country back If you want me back to where I’m from I need a map Or if everyone just gets their stuff back that’s bless for us You only made a piece of this place, leave the rest for us maybe I’m from everywhere or nowhere No man’s land, between trenches, no one goes there But it’s Fertilised by the brown bodies who fought for Britain in the wars So when I spit A poppy grows there I make my own space In this business or Britishness Your questions just limiting It’s based on appearances Stop trying find a box for us I’ll make my own and break your whole poxy concept of us Very few fit these labels So I’m repping for the rest of us Who know that there’s no place like home and that stretches us We code switch so don’t piss me off With cricket tests for us Or question us about our loyalties Our blood and sweats enough born under a sun That you made too hot for us Kidnapped by empire And diaspora fostered us Raised by garage And halal southern fried chicken shops A junglist a jungli and I’m mowgli from the jungle books I’m John Barnes in the box I blaze hard after mosque I bend words like Brown or West Until they just spell what My tribe is a quest to a land that was lost to us And it's name is dignity So where I’m from is not your problem bruv --- Riz Ahmed: https://thelonggoodbye.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/rizahmed https://twitter.com/rizwanahmed https://www.facebook.com/RizAhmed/ [ub4jPZzSBe0] |
