Lyrics
Honor Killings
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Culture of honor, culture of shame
Imprisoned by the burqa
Her innocence to blame
Sharia law and the almighty allah
Rule with the whip in hand
Divine decree alliance against women
Throughout the holy land
Buried alive, burned, mutilated
Dragged through the streets
Decapitated, decapitated, decapitated
Beg for mercy with no avail
Muslim teachings must prevail
Judge and jury with zero degree of moral culpability
Death by lapidation
The law of islam nation
Father slays daughter
A husband his wife
A mother is killed by her son
Cut from the womb
Bastard infant is strangled
A page from the holy quran
Honor killers, moral vigilantes
Wipe away the stain of shame
To protect the family honor
And restore the family name
Heed obey! Get on your knees and pray
Heed obey! Five times a day
Heed obey! Get on your knees and pray
Heed obey! Five times a day
We put thee on the path, so follow it
And follow not the whims of those who know not
Heed obey! Get on your knees and pray
Heed obey! A tortured body on display
Segregation discrimination female genital mutilation
Subordination banned from education
Actions and sayings of the first three generations
Forced into marriage against her own will
Dowry and bride price to seal the deal
Left to rot in solitude
Suicide is the only substitute
Buried alive burned mutilated
Dragged through the streets
Decapitated
Beaten tortured ostracized accused
Of being westernized
