lyrics

I love you because you don't judge me
Because your judgement hurts us both
I hate you because you judge me
Because your judgement hurts us both
I envy you because you can close your eyes
You can choose

You always determine the rules of the game
It's you who writes history, not us
Your judgement is everywhere
We don't have a choice
It's not you who grants freedom
Freedom is our right, too for a just cause

I throw my life on my earth
You have two faces and that hurts us both

I envy you because you can close your eyes
You can choose

احبك
احبك لان لا تحكم علي
لا لان حكمك علي ياذينا
اكرهك لان تحكم علي
لا لان حكمك علي ياذينا
احسدك تكدر تغمض عيونك وانت اختار

احبك لان لا تحكم علي
لان حكمك علي ياذينا
احسدك تكدر تغمض عيونك وانت اختار

انت بكيفك تحدد قواعد اللعبة
وانت الي تكتب التاريخ مو احنا
حكمك بكل مكان ما عدنا اختيار

احسدك وانت اختار
اكرهك وانت اختار

مو انت اللي تعطي الحرية
الحرية حقنا بقضية مشروعة

اذب عمري على ارضي
وجهين عندك وهذا يأذينيا
احسدك لان تكدر تغمض عيونك وانت اختار

about

Use Knife Belgium

Use Knife is the raw synergy between Iraqi vocalist/percussionist Saif Al-Qaissy and Belgian musicians Kwinten Mordijck and Stef Heeren. They tell a necessary tale of freedom, responsibility and the gulf between the Eastern and Western mindset. Even the instrumentation itself reflects this friction; intuitively muddling distorted industrial textures and jerky EBM pulses with brittle Iraqi rhythms. ... more
