Elon Musk recently referred to the UK as a Prison Island and he probably wasn’t too wide of the mark given the UK Government’s latest policy announcements so how ironic that T.A.C.’s first track of the year drops with the aptly named title of Prison Island Blues!
Lyrics included as always - enjoy!
Yeah, here we go now, here we go
here we go, here we go, here we go
New year, new year, fresh start, but we still don’t know
New year, new hope, but the government’s shady
Left or right, tell me, who really gonna save me?
Promises broken, they ain’t worth the sniff
Got us all divided, like we some kinda myth
Crime on the rise, while cash flow slips
Society slippin’, man, it’s feelin’ like a trip
They push their agenda, keep us in the blind
With the media spinning tales that they’re forced to unwind
Censoring speech, that’s the game they play
Arresting all the memes, making jokes fade away
Living on Prison Island, like we under a spell
If you ain’t with the program, better not raise hell
Here we go, here we go, wisdom from the street
New year, new lies still feelin’ the heat
Who to trust when the truth’s on layaway
Dreams deferred, man I wish we could sway
Here we go, here we go, wisdom from the street
New year, new lies still feelin’ the heat
Who to trust when the truth’s on layaway
Dreams deferred, man I wish we could sway
Ain’t no way, no how I’m lettin’ this slide
Talkin’ revolution, you can see it in my eyes
Every kid on the corner gunning for a cause
While the rich take the money, we’re left with the flaws
So tell me who to vote for, can’t break this chain
They twist the narrative livin’ life in main
Echo chambers loud, gotta shout where it hurts
But they silenced the voices wearing invisible shirts
Can we rise from the ashes, make a real change?
Or we just puppets, locked up in this game?
Lost in the shuffle, still fighting this crime
Social media clowns, we all dance for a dime
Here we go, here we go, wisdom from the street
New year, new lies still feelin’ the heat
Who to trust when the truth’s on layaway
Dreams deferred, man I wish we could sway
Here we go, here we go
Here we go, here we go
So here we go, time to take a stand
New year, fresh horizons, let’s all lend a hand
In this Prison Island, we’ll break the mold
With voices united, we’re gonna be bold
Yeah, here we go, here we go, yeah
Takin’ it higher, this fire won’t slow
Here we go, here we go, yeah here we go
Yeah here we go, here we go, here we go
