Uneasy tension is razor sharp
Spark is lit in the dead of dark
Burning waste is rising high
Blackened smoke chokes the sky
Shots fired for crowd control
Oppression has a fatal toll
Ignite the confrontation
Burn the flames of oppression
Water and batons batter protests
Rocks pelted in great excess
Cloaked and still side by side
Economic opportunities denied
Logic clouded by the haze
Molotovs light the streets ablaze
Ignite the confrontation
Burn the flames of oppression
