[Lowkey, Karim Mussilhy - Skit 2 Soundtrack To The Struggle 2 lyrics]
Karim Mussilhy: Right now, right this second
This is how our families are being
Remembered they're being remembered by a
Culture of neglect institutional
Inertia hiding behind
A system that has failed we want the truth
Not bureaucracy we want light to be shone on
What went wrong and who is responsible
We do not want excuses, buck passing
Fancy technical arguments or any
Legal grey areas we want an
Inquiry into the truth
The truth that people died
Because those in authority
Convinced themselves that they
Had done enough
Mr richmond: Karim, can I just - I have to be
Very careful here, and I don't
Mean to interrupt you
But some of what you're about to
Say is for the evidential hearings
I'm not going to stop you
I'm not going to stop you
Mussilhy: Sure, sure
Mr richmond: All right?
Mussilhy: I think, with all due respect
We've been censored enough
It's our time whether you like it or not
You will have to listen
Someone in the audience: Speak, brother!
