I’ve Kept Singing - Tim Fite

My father explained to me
That when a fellow hit me
I couldn't hit him back
Because they would say
We were bad and savage
So I had to stand
To be knocked all around
On the other hand
I have never separated my work
As an artist from my work
As a human being
I've always put it even more strongly
That to me music is always a weapon
Music is always a weapon
Always
Always a weapon
Always a weapon
Because of my political views
Which I certainly did not expect
In a democracy
That I'd been prevented
From exercising my craft
However I've kept singing
Kept singing
Kept singing
All through the years
To me music is
Music is
Music is
