LYRICS:
Situation dire
Dead souls on the horizon
But still soldier on
Dogs of war
Sold to die cause…
They come back for what?
Bombing for peace that’s back to front
Ministry of offence - are you catching on?
Another prime minister moving sinister
Think we’re gonna listen ta?
What you gonna say about the war in Syria
Countries left with sore interior
We think the refugees have had enough
And we know the death tolls only gonna tally up
I pick the mic and I bally up
And start looking for an escape plan like Dillinger
We’re gonna break down barriers
Our brothers are migrating in handcuffs
...It’s horrendous, a chemical attack on a civilian
Young children already militant
Every day we bury the innocent
A vigilante got to stay vigilant
Turn a blind eye to ya skin pigment
We lead the way we won’t follow religion
Situation dire
Dead souls on the horizon
But still soldier on
Dogs of war
Sold to die cause…
They come back for what?
Bombing for peace that’s back to front
Ministry of offence - are you catching on?
Yeah you better start catching on!
We pay tax so illegal attacks worldwide keep battling on!
Won’t stop ‘til we BOMB THEM ALL!
DOGS OF WAR...
Broken future the truth is nearer
Prophecy of Akira
I wanna Tetsuo on this wretched world
My furious energies never felt clearer
Back with a blunt and a beer
I can’t go sober it’s over the world’s grown colder
Covered in soldiers
The ’powers that be’ are screwing us over HARD!
We could rap about money & cars
But that’d be another disaster
Yeah just keep distracting the people
From the bleakest actions of evil
I’ma come through with stunner kung-fu
Bash a foot soldier - cut another few
If you’re part of the 1% we will find you
And put a pump action to your cerebral!
Situation dire
Dead souls on the horizon
But still soldier on
Dogs of war
Sold to die cause…
They come back for what?
Bombing for peace that’s back to front
Ministry of offence - are you catching on?
Are you catching on?
Yeah you better start catching on!
We pay tax so illegal attacks worldwide keep battling on!
Won’t stop ‘til we BOMB THEM ALL!
DOGS OF WAR...
There’s a war in the middle east and it’s getting deep
Cause the all they do is cheat
With the money that they launder and fleece
And export with police
Oil and the guns aren’t coming in cheap
Borders we breach documents will leak
How we gonna learn if nobody’s gonna teach
Kicking off doors if we ain’t got keys
There’s a war in the alleyways and in the streets
Some of them are sheep - Some of them are gonna speak up
Cause I know they wanna sweep
This turmoil under the carpet
But I don’t want hear another Donald Trump speech
Got love for America but I just want peace
Blood on my hands only if I bleed
...Fuck the whole regime
To God up there ask him what is this gonna achieve?
Situation dire
Dead souls on the horizon
But still soldier on
Dogs of war
Sold to die cause…
They come back for what?
Bombing for peace that’s back to front
Ministry of offence - are you catching on?
Are you catching on?
Yeah you better start catching on!
We pay tax so illegal attacks worldwide keep battling on!
Won’t stop ‘til we BOMB THEM ALL!
DOGS OF WAR...
