There Will Be a Reckoning - Billy Bragg[00:00:00]
[00:00:02]
Somewhere between the midnight[00:00:08]
And the cold and empty dawn[00:00:12]
I found myself out walking[00:00:17]
On the streets where I was born[00:00:20]
And I came upon a stranger[00:00:24]
Who looked me in the face[00:00:29]
And asked me what I was doing[00:00:32]
In this god forsaken place[00:00:37]
[00:00:40]
I don't need to be forgiven[00:00:41]
For something I haven't done[00:00:45]
Not for wanting my family[00:00:50]
To find their place in the sun[00:00:54]
If you keep this pressure on[00:00:59]
Just don't be surprised[00:01:03]
If I can't summon up my dignity[00:01:06]
While you're roughing up my pride[00:01:11]
[00:01:14]
There will be a reckoning[00:01:14]
For the peddlers of hate [00:01:17]
Who spread their poison all across this estate[00:01:19]
And a reckoning too for the politicians who[00:01:22]
Left us to this fate[00:01:28]
There will be a reckoning[00:01:31]
[00:01:33]
Just a few days later a man came to my door[00:01:40]
To ask me if I thought that[00:01:48]
This place was worth fighting for[00:01:52]
And though I recognize his reasons[00:01:56]
I just could not agree[00:02:01]
When they told me that my neighbor[00:02:05]
Would be my enemy[00:02:09]
[00:02:12]
I don't need to be forgiven[00:02:13]
For something I haven't done[00:02:17]
Not for wanting my family[00:02:21]
To find their place in the sun[00:02:25]
If you keep this pressure on[00:02:31]
Just don't be surprised[00:02:34]
If I can't summon up my dignity[00:02:38]
While you're roughing up my pride[00:02:42]
[00:02:46]
There will be a reckoning[00:02:47]
For the peddlers of hate [00:02:49]
Who spread their poison all across this estate[00:02:51]
And a reckoning too for the politicians who[00:02:55]
Left us to this fate[00:02:59]
There will be a reckoning[00:03:03]
There will be a reckoning[00:03:07]
There will be a reckoning[00:03:11]
There will be a reckoning[00:03:15]
