There are murders that we must account for
Bloody deeds have been done in my name
Criminal acts i must pay for
And our children will shoulder the blame

I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame
I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame

As a nation we're following blindly
No one stops to question why
Our money's supporting an army
And a boy in soweto dies

I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame
I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame

Must we go on ignoring forever
The cries of an african son
There's a soldier's hand on the trigger
But it's we who are pointing the gun

I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame
I'm a british subject, not proud of it
While i carry the burden of shame
