Lowkey, Kaia Laurielle - Refuse To Kill lyrics
[Lowkey, Kaia Laurielle - Refuse To Kill lyrics]
For those that shattered the infallibility of militarism
Ye that have escaped the sword, stand not still
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill
It's time we talk about banality of evil
Murderous conformity, mentality is lethal
How the powerful systemize the savagery of people
There's insanity and tragedy in fallacies they feed you
This is for the quakers that would die before they kill
Bertrand Russell in prison, he survived by force of will
Rejected by society, prefer it's all concealed
History a mystery, a version to reveal
This is the conviction Rosa Luxemburg was murdered for
This is the tradition 2003 was searching for
No time to mollycoddle, too many bodies we're sorry for
This is the feeling that stopped 'em loading SS Jolly George
80 died in jail all due to their treatment
Sacrificed their lives for the most human of reasons
Monsters on the conscience soothe delusions of freedom
The refusal to kill, a conviction you can believe in
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill
Keir Hardie's passed without a mention of parliament
Alienation targeting afterwards it was hard for them
He considered Belgium as colonizers we can't defend
Sent to kill fellow workers by a wretched class of heartless men
Still drew the borders in places that they trample
Conscription isn't physical but it remains financial
Participants in carnage but from the strangest of angles
Don't prolong the mental bondage, it's time the cage is dismantled
Women's Peace Crusade contribution can't be forgotten
Legacy still alive and was fighting at Greenham Common
These are the real heroes, not Van Damme or Rambo
They shut the city down and banned Lloyd George from Glasgow
Better to die with honor than live life feeling guilter
For all those that went against their families like Sylvia
Hope on inspiration from the legacy of Pankhurst
The next Joe Glenton can just walk away from Sandhurst
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
Ye that have escaped the sword, stand not still
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
I refuse to kill
It's time we talk about banality of evil
Murderous conformity, mentality is lethal
How the powerful systemize the savagery of people
There's insanity and tragedy in fallacies they feed you
This is for the quakers that would die before they kill
Bertrand Russell in prison, he survived by force of will
Rejected by society, prefer it's all concealed
History a mystery, a version to reveal

The refusal to kill, a conviction you can believe in
I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim

I refuse to kill, I refuse to maim
I refuse to fight, no not in my name
