[Intro] (Yeah) Teeth in the world Uh Bite back or be eaten [Chorus – Female] Babies cryin' over empty plates Leaders laughin' in a gold estate Bombs fallin' like it's autumn rain Who counts bodies when they count their gain? Teeth in the world and it chews so slow Blood in the dirt where the black seeds grow If I disappear 'cause I said this truth Remember my name I died for the youth (yeah) [Verse 1 – Male 1] Talk peace But they ship more steel Arms deal ink on a backroom deal Flags get waved Then the flesh gets peeled Mothers on the floor tryna scrub that field News say "clash" But I see mass graves Landmines planted in a child's hallway Drone cam lookin' like a video game Click one time Wipe out whole last names On shore Plates heavy with steak Off shore Kids lickin' dust for taste Same suit smile on the magazine face Shake one hand Other hand in the safe They fund both sides What a business plan Pray in the dark but they built that dam Pipeline cut through a village and a fam' If you talk too loud Then you vanish off the land (gone) [Chorus – Female] Babies cryin' over empty plates Leaders laughin' in a gold estate Bombs fallin' like it's autumn rain Who counts bodies when they count their gain? Teeth in the world and it chews so slow Blood in the dirt where the black seeds grow If I disappear 'cause I said this truth Remember my name I died for the youth (died for the youth) [Verse 2 – Male 2] I seen uncles Cousins Friends All get tagged as "ends" Wrong postcode Wrong faith Next update "case closed" on the page Targeted names on a secret list Click one text Then they cease to exist "Unknown shooter" "motive missed" Whole courtroom choke on the iron fist Food bank line like a midnight rave But the DJ's hunger and minimum wage Council flat mould in a newborn's lungs Parliament bar pour another one They sell fear Then they sell a cure We buy hope that we can't afford They build walls Then they build resorts Same old game Just a diff'rent sport [Bridge – Female] Who do we pray to When they pray on us? (pray on us) Who do we run to When they hunting us? (hunting us) If I go quiet Know they cut my voice If I'm still here We still got a choice (yeah) [Chorus – All (Female lead)] Babies cryin' over empty plates Leaders laughin' in a gold estate Bombs fallin' like it's autumn rain Who counts bodies when they count their gain? Teeth in the world and it chews so slow Blood in the dirt where the black seeds grow If I disappear 'cause I said this truth Remember my name I died for the youth (for the youth, for the youth)
