about

This track originally appeared on the 2016 E.P. "Jakarta Punk City".

lyrics

With boots on the street,
In the tropical heat
This city’s our hope and our home
We may not fit in
(but) we take it on the chin
It’s the only home that we’ve ever known

Justice ain’t fair,
We get jailed for our hair,
We’re beaten and stripped of our pride
We stand and oppose,
But we’re no heroes,
It’s all about the right to survive

In a carbon copied state
Where everyone’s living a lie
Is a system to sedate
To oppress and repress the why
But there’s still a place to go
Where punk didn’t die!

Jakarta, punk city, ini kota kami
Jakarta, punk city, ini kota kami
Yeah!

The system’s corrupt,
But we won’t give up,
We march to our own fucking drum
We fight for reform,
We will never conform,
We refuse to live under their thumb

Punk is our voice,
It’s our life, our choice,
We live by our own set of laws
Blood may be spilled,
But ideas can’t be killed
Cuz YOU’LL be there to take up the cause
