{Chorus: Mai Khalil}

They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me?

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

My intentions are clear to see

{Verse 1: Crazy Haze}

First of all, allow my client Kareem Dennis in

Simplify his messages and dissect the evidence

That placed him on the terror list, spread the lies of television

My client is standing accused of encouraging terrorism

He's promoting peace, far from violent encouragement

I believe it's unjust that this court has summoned him

How can one man rapping, lead to terrorist actions?

This misunderstanding merits a retraction

Accused of calling for attacks on military facilities

You can't equate violence with criticism politically

Where's the freedom of speech?

He's just another young musician who is seeking a dream

My client is accused of inciting racial tension

He's half-Arab, half-English, did I fail to mention?

The media rendered his reputation ruined

Think about how many youngsters he has influenced

To quit a life of crime and do the opposite

Most of the man's tracks are completely devoid of politics

The evidence is unseen, the verdict is a done deed

How can you compare a song to invading a country?

My client isn't hungry for the blood of the people

Since when has making a rap song ever been illegal

Or murderous? The only thing that drives this person is love

I rest my case to the jury and the merciful judge

{Chorus: Mai Khalil}

They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me?

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

My intentions are clear to see

[Verse 2: Crazy Haze & Lowkey]

Sir, can you confirm you're the artist that's known as Lowkey?

I can

Are you aware the state has been building this case since 03?

I am

You claim that you're all about love and you promote peace

I'm here to prove that your hot speeches lead to cold deeds

Your lyrics are a virus infecting all the youths

You say whatever it takes to get a mention on the news

You're an insult to the people and offend the soldiers too

Objection, your Honour

Objection overruled

Do you denounce the monarchy and hope for a republic?

Monarchy is inequality, systemic injustice

While you strangle Afghanistan and tangle with Taliban

Our taxes have to pay for David Cameron's cameraman

How can you compare spreading anarchy to spreading democracy?

Like you compare resistance to extension of colonies

Did you really refer to the U.S. as an abomination?

No, I posed a question in reference to its domination

I scrutinise governments, you scrutinise songs

Did you compare predator drones to suicide bombs?

Yes and I question where such brutalised youth would rise from

It's true, I choose to write songs but you can write wrongs

But what if your questions equate to the spreading of hate?

Is it true you labeled Israel a terrorist state?

Yes, 'cause it's based on the threat to erase an indigenous population you could never replace

{Chorus: Mai Khalil}

They calling me a terrorist, we know who the terror is

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

They calling me a terrorist, it is time to settle this

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

I'm all about love and peace, why you wanna trouble me?

Tell them that I'm not (guilty)

My intentions are clear to see

{Verse 3: Lowkey}

Please allow me to state the most relevant of facts

I'm charged with section 1 of 06's Terrorism Act

It is alleged the music I'm publishing for exhibition

All amounts to the encouragement of terrorism

My face was placed up on the news as a wanted person

'Cause it caused controversy when they saw my songs emerging

If I was commercial would I have to ride all these hurdles?

Raided my home, take my phone, put some spies in my circle?

Not on it, no comment, I will never change my position

Not in jail, but they gave me these stale bail conditions

And this is the part where the plot just gets sinister

They banned from the City of London and Westminster

I do this for the rebels that do this without the medals

For Smiley Culture, Jody McIntyre and Alfie Meadows

Before you throw it at me, have a look at your backwards book

Definition of terrorism, Columbus and Captain Cook

I can't lie, it's getting deep, our lives are very cheap

And one person dies in police custody every week

They're editing my tracks 'cause I'm telling them the facts

You're more likely to die like that than from a terrorist attack

When you try to fight a war, they will say you defy the law

Can't quiet me, this is R.I.P. for Brian Haw

We know the truth, no matter what you tell 'em on the television

IMF, World Bank, economic terrorism

I refuse to produce chart nonsense

Not a servant to the Zionist lobby like Mark Thompson

The BBC want me making music to impress crooks

Or doing shows on military bases like Tim Westwood

Murdoch might have the news, but me, I have the tunes

Your cameras move onto celebrities to distract the youth

Remember this fact is true

When you point your finger at me there is three fingers pointing back at you
