I am Not a Criminal Mr Politician song Lyrics

Pressure people with impunitive taxes
To fund your trips abroad and houses
When people rise up in masses
Against your tyranny, call that treasonous

Defaming your people as criminal
For venting their anger against your imperial
How can you not see they don't want you?
And they won't stop, no no
Coz the sovereign power is in the people
Don't forget

I'm not a criminal
No no, not a criminal
I gave you chance to lead me
Now you call me an enemy
Oh no

You demolished my house, and left me in cold
I pleaded for you to stop
But you were busy, busy for your people

Now you want to tax my freehold
Say you are after my payslip more
Tax here, tax there even tax my transaction
How we got here, I really don't know

I'm not a criminal
No no, not a criminal
I gave you chance to lead me
Now you call me an enemy
Oh no

Anytime a people stand for their rights
They'll brand them as men of evil
Remember, Koitalel, Mekatilili and more fought against imperialist

Remember Marcus Garvey
Remember Malcom X
What of Mr Gandhi
Oginga Odinga and the rest
Wake up from modern slavery
Neoclonialism is at its best

I gave you chance to lead me
Now you call me an enemy
Oh no

Did they fight to have us a country
That we'll suffer in the game of puppetry
The message was "Mzungu arudi ulaya
Muafrika apate uhuru na his shamba

Why many lies Mr Politician
Tell me you crony of them Western
You keep quoting from history
Of our freedom fighters' glory
How they bravely fought the west colony

Now I'm standing up for my rights too
Coz you swived to the West street
In this street, Boda Boda shall pursue you
Even Mama Mboga is unhappy to be mistreat

I'm not a criminal
No no, not a criminal
Please don't call me a criminal
I'm not a criminal
I gave you chance to lead me
Now you call me an enemy
Oh no
