And this is all you're ever gonna need to know If the world were smaller it would have died of us long ago And why have unproven faiths more respect than earth Youth riding busted boom what's tomorrows worth The poet stays with you when everyone has gone And oh prejudice your light is always on Mother nature take a bow and fill this womb I write not in ink but in perfume Beneath your fathers hat is a ten-ton curse Bass-lines are stolen and so are words And unkissed children talk the talk of lies They're starving in the city and the lowlands fear the tides And on a London tube I can feel my blood There's no other way to see it Can we say it loud enough Love your brain it will set you free Go on participate in other peoples destiny And one day you'll find out what it is you are not From a city on fire I feel the weight of God There's love in the poorhouse before dreams are dry Inventing scenarios for an argument you didn't have is an angry life The DNA of man is viral on your history's cloud There's life in Borough Market and man they turn it up loud On a London tube I can feel my blood There's no other way to see it Can we say it loud enough
