I'm from a little place called |

Great Britain, |

But I dunno if |

I love or hate |

Britain, These words upon my page written, |

Britain. See, |

|
Britain, These words upon my page written, |
|
Are the things that make and break |
|
Britain. One inch, to the left, to the left, |
|
Could of been the difference between life and death, |
|
Knife wound to the heart to the side of the chest, |
|
Could of been one statistic less. |
|
See sometimes great |
|
Britain ain't that great, |
|
Kids getting stabbed at an alarming rate, |
|
Press with a passion to exaggerate, |
|
Increasingly clueless heads of state. |
|
You see, knife crime, knife crime ain't about knifes, |
|
It's about young |
|
Britain and their ways of lives, |
|
You don't solve knife crime by taking knifes to hand, |
|
You solve it by instilling new hopes and plans, |
|
It's got positives though, |
|
I swear its true, |
|
North, South, |
|
East, West to the midlands too. |
|
God damn 'versity, that shines right through. |
|
Who's makes the best music in the world? |

Britain. In a 2008/2009 government report, |
|
Violent crime was not listed to increase, |
|
Or decrease, it was instead listed as stable. |
|
Now what I ask you is, is stable really acceptable? |
|
You see between 2003 and 2008, the number of children admitted into |
|
NHS hospitals |
|
With knife wounds saw a rise of one hundred and twenty percent. |
|
So in my eyes, 2008/2009's stability, just marks our cards as desensitised. |
|
But statistics can be twisted, and our contexts aren't realistic, |
|
And while this might seem over simplistic, we need to fight this and resist it. |
