Sleeping Dogs
Urban waste, urban noise-
You look the other way
The youth has got no other choice-
(Still) you look the other way
Violence, death and HIV
Crack, cocaine and LSD
You let em rot, just let em be
Let em rot, just let em be
But one day
Sleeping dogs will wake!
That day
Is closer than you think!
Full of angst, no place to go-
You look the other way
No love, no dreams, but just skid row-
(Still) you look the other way
Violence, death and HIV
Crack, cocaine and LSD
You let em rot, just let em be
Let em rot, just let em be
But one day
Sleeping dogs will wake!
That day
Is closer than you think!
Is closer than you think
Is closer than you think
Is closer than you..think!!

We live in a world in which the top three
executives at Microsoft have more money
then all people and governments of Africa
combined! We live in a world in which the
richest 358 people have more money than
45% of the world's population (2.5 billion
people!!).
Poverty and wealth inequality does not
need to exist on our planet! Urban ghetto's
don't need to exist, hunger doesn't need to
exist. All that is lacking is the political and
the economical will to do something about it.
Our system is breeding countries and ghetto's
filled with rage, anger and hatred. It's just a
matter of time before they'll explode, and
that day is closer than you think…
