about

'I Wanna be Like Gandhi' is a hymn to reaction.
Fast rhythm rock, unconcealed hardcore attitude and conflicting words that form a sole oxymoron.
These ingredients mix up and wildly spin in a melting pot to explode against every kind of apathy and acceptance of the injustices of the system that we live in.
To be like Gandhi and to carry on a non-violent revolution or react destroying everything? The only thing that matters is not to get used.

lyrics

I wanna be like Gandhi
Develop a great patience
I wanna be like Gandhi
And hear the voice of reason, yeah
Always try to speak my mind
Always gentle and polite
But the system puts me to the test

How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air
How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air


I wanna be like Gandhi
But it’s not relaxing
I wanna be like Gandhi
But some hate is rising
Industry and market rules
Made to exploit and abuse
I don’t really think that slaving for them is a fuckin’ privilege

How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air
How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air

Forgiving nothing, nothing, no!
Forgiving no-thing!
Forgiving nothing, nothing, no!
Forgiving no-thing!

I wanna be myself
I’m a purebred bastard
I wanna be myself
I don’t have any mercy for you
All you rich that are in charge
All you leaders, start to cry
I can’t wait to eat you alive

How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air
How much I tried
To be non-violent but I failed
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air
How much I tried
How much I tried
Now blood is on the walls
And tables in the air
