Plan B - It's A War Lyrics






When they take away your right
To stand up for what you believe or say what's on your mind
Try to break you inside
Try to take what's yours and make it theirs and act like that's alright, no…

Oh yeah it's a war, it's a war they are waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
Oh yeah it's a war, it's a war that they're waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
I swear look over there it's amazing
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
How they get away with all the liberties they're taking

When you speak up for the oppressed
Or anyone that you can see suffering prejudice
Stand your ground no matter who you upset
The way you go about it no care for the consequence, no…

Oh yeah, it's a war, it's a war you are waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
Oh yeah it's a war, it's a war that you're waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
I swear look over there it's amazing
(They just keep on hating)
They don't like the way that you are behaving

(They just keep on hating, hating, hating)
Oh yeah oh yeah
(Hating, hating)
It's a war, it's a war, it's a war, oh yeah, oh yeah
(They just keep on hating, hating, hating)
It's a war, it's a war, it's war, oh yeah, oh yeah
(They just keep on hating and hating and hating and keep on hating ya)

When you protest and you picket
Man you waging war on the wicked
They ain't gonna have you out here trying to expose them, no…
And the bad man are winning
They've been waging war on you from the beginning
And you just ain't gon' have it when they try and control things, so…

Oh yeah, it's a war, it's a war you are waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
Oh yeah it's a war, it's a war they are waging
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
I swear look over there it's amazing
(It's a war, it's a war yeah)
How they get away with all the liberties they're taking

(It's a war yeah)

  1. K.... K....

    Lol....""pLegan Begee"" Angel Sent!! USTRYY..getmalingo?? Alien?? K888KX 😁

  2. P.... ....

    TL;DR - I liked this; a lot.


    This album reminds me of London Calling (by The Clash) in a lot of ways; as a reflection of the struggles facing an entirely new generation, and - by extension - the desire of people for a measure of real justice, not just for themselves, but for others as well.


    While this kind of music isn't really my jam, I like to listen to Ben's work, because the lyrical context tends to be pretty deep, and I like that he takes risks in the musical arrangement and style, while maintaining a consistency across the entire album.

  3. N.... ....

    Relatively simple and inexpensive but effective video

  4. R.... J....

    This song is some real ass ish....well done Plan B

    Still havn't heard a bad tune from Plan B. Love the diversity of your sound, and the message in all your music. Jools holland performance of Guess again was incredible. First song I heard from you and listened to in my car on repeat for months was She said and I have been hooked ever since, I know you had music out before that but that was when I first heard of you. Had to watch the Ill Manors movie on line when it came out because I couldn't find anywhere showing it in Ireland. Hope to continue supporting your music long into the future.

  33. W.... D....

    Plan b is a beast of an artist anything he throws his hands to in genre or acting. Love the way his music actually has meaning not like the crap 85% of the time in radio or this day an age

  34. t.... ....

    Try to Break

  35. C.... S....

    Who's watching trying to recognize some of the comments?

  36. S.... E....

    Banging

    Go on Ben! Wake them up!

  38. a.... m....

    Great work! I see plan b as the, talented, English version of drake..🤩🤩🤩

  39. p.... p....

    F@CK Plan B! Left Wing Sympathiser Scum. DISLIKE.

  40. C.... M....

    Glad to see you read the comments Plan B, since you have included mine under the name of Vicky Smith lol. I've been a fan of yours since "who needs actions when you've got words", and regardless of what you think of me and my views, keep making good music and speaking your mind but don't forget to look into the other side of the story. You might be surprised at what you learn.. It's A War.

  41. B.... ....

    It's just an eventuality, this life's a fucking travesty, these police with no concience soul or morality, it's like a disease, decay and spreading fallacy. They fill your mind with phony delusions like your living in a fantasy.

    The earth that we stand on is dying a slow death, the fuel of our country: crack smack an meth. Like the darkness of an endless pit deep below the depths, a world that sucks you dry of every ounce of respect.

    So we're begging for scraps while the rich get richer, choking our economy like strangled and constrictor, see the world through my eyes let me paint the picture, I'm not a scholar but tonight I'm weighting scripture.

  42. A.... ....

    *Nice one, mate!*

  43. S.... G....

    Fuck Politics, Fuck Religion - all this has caused me to be an atheist even though I was born a Christian.

    S.... G....

    👏👏👏

  44. k.... ....

    haha at "plan buk"...how stupid that guy has to be...nevermind. just another great song PLAN B UK. keep it up!

  45. F.... M....

    I'm lovin' all the new stuff. Keep it up!!!

  46. M.... B....

    Great to hear some more inspiring sounds from Plan B, I do enjoy a video that makes you think about your input into today's society. Superb, hahaha I just got the joke, what is Planbuk? Classic bants.

  47. D.... ....

    what is plan buk

    D.... ....

    Daniel plan B UK

    D.... ....

    Oh jesus fucking christ

  48. d.... i....

    That was really well done

  49. p.... p....

    List your top Plan B tracks here (mine are):
    - Suzanne
    - Charmaine
    - Couldn't get along

    p.... p....

    pleasant phucker Good choices

    p.... p....

    Writing on the wall has to be up there.

  50. p.... p....

    Anyone ranting about the responses and "the other side" have to understand this is the nature of politics regardless of position right now. If Plan B took any position to the right, he'd attract a whole nother crowd.

  51. p.... p....

    So content creators can see all down votes?

  52. H.... ....

    Not quite on the same level of his old stuff 🤔

    H.... ....

    Hood just think it’s different he’s always had mad range I like it anyway

    H.... ....

    Just heard the new album and I unfortunately agree. Seems a bit... too basic ? I feel like I've already heard these songs before by other artists.

    H.... ....

    If you dont feel it your to comfortable.

  53. C.... S....

    I'd like those comments could be mine!!!
    Clever Ben.

  54. z.... ....
