lirik lagu kev carmody - black deaths in custody
[verse 1]
there’s one black brother dead
down in the roebourne jail
one black martyr crucified
the cops drove in the nails
two hundred years of custody
we’re not allowed no bail
how do you face the mornings
when this injustice still prevails
[chorus]
i say, show me the justice
to be had here in this land
show us blacks the justice for every black human being
show us blacks the justice
in this white democracy
when you can execute us without a trial
while we held in custody
[verse 2]
well there’s one black brother gunned down
outside the moree town
the communities across this land
we mourned as they laid him down
two hundred years we’ve been forced
to stand, beg outside the door
while the system treats the symptoms
it never attacks the cause
[chorus]
i say, show me the justice
to be had here in this land
show us blacks the justice for every black human being
show us blacks the justice
in this white democracy
when you can execute us without a trial
while we held in custody
[verse 3]
well there’s a black brother k!lled
in a brewarrina prison cell
two hundred years we been beaten down
two hundred years of h~ll
clamped in chains and worked like slaves
never got a fee
how can you say it’s justice
with his k!llers runnin’ free?
[chorus]
i say, show me the justice
to be had here in this land
show us blacks the justice for every black human being
show us blacks the justice
in this white democracy
when you can execute us without a trial
while we held in custody
[verse 4]
well, there’s one black brother dead
down on too many jailhouse floors
beaten down and sacrificed
before the british law
two hundred years, you celebrate a heritage of shame
you stole the land from which we’re banned
left us walkin’ in the rain
[chorus]
i say, show me the justice
to be had here in this land
show us blacks the justice for every black human being
show us blacks the justice
in this white democracy
when you can execute us without a trial
while we held in custody
