CONTRAVENE LYRICS

"Man Made Borders, Man Made Lies"

Another racist law, another restriction 
The explanations that they cling to are purely contradiction 
If you've something to offer they may let you in 
Especially if they approve of the color of your skin. 
We have to fight back against this racist jurisdiction 
We have to fight back and show our opposition 
The number of laws are growing everyday 
The borders they recognize shouldn't be there anyway. 
They say immigration's causing the US to overpopulate 
Causing us to become unemployed at an alarming rate 
But the bastards don't think twice about the lower rate of pay 
They're dishing out to some poor child in a 3rd world country. 
So they'll build another wall up to keep "those people" out 
And hire more armed guards to ensure that there's no doubt 
Of the people ever gaining power and taking back their lives 
Or of tearing down these man-made borders that perpetuate their lies. 
We have to fight back and oppose their hate 
We have to fight back before it's too late 
We can't sit back and let them win 
We have to fight back against this racist system. 
And it's our legislation with another law to pass 
That only serves the interest of the fucking ruling class 
The same legislation that gives INS the right 
To rape, murder and torture anyone who isn't white.
