Read up your history and then you'll reach your destination
Teach up the youth and then you'll find the solution Education is the key Will be for eternity Come focus upon dis and then you will see We've come so far so fast from what they call the past Laying down foundations and we know they're gonna last Present and the future we will never fall Realise united we stand and divided we fall This is the wall of community sound We're comin to get you comin to track you down No escapin from this militant scientist Suffer no defeat is upon top of the list Hope and glory the myth of the Labour Tories We're comin down and tellin you a different story Any time when we come positive and confident And them coulda never escape this ya judgement |

Truth hides under fallen rocks and stones
At the end of a disconnected phone (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides buried deep beneath your feet At the end of an unmarked street (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides with the people written out of history Black leaders and inventors whose names remain a mystery Great women recorded on ripped out pages Obliterated wisdom, covered up faces Truth is lost in the mists of eMpTy Vision, And found in the notebooks of those wrongfully imprisoned, and in the evidence that was never brought to trial, but not in the void behind the newsreaders' smile. Truth hides under fallen rocks and stones At the end of a disconnected phone (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides at the end of an unmarked street Stored (?) deep beneath your feet (that's where the truth hides) Chorus (x2): Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Down an unmarked street Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Truth hides whenever we lose our focus Slips out the back, quickly replaced by the bogus, fleeing soundbites disguised as facts That reappear in the small print on every contract Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror In countless documents sent straight to the shredder That might finally give us the whole of the picture But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper We know that truth will hide Under fallen rocks and stones At the end of a disconnected phone Down an unmarked street And buried deep beneath your feet Chorus (x5): Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Down an unmarked street Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line...... |

Brothers and sisters of the soul unite
We are one indivisible and strong They may try to break us but they dare not under estimate us They know our memories are long A mass of sleeping villages That's how they're pitching it At least that's what they try to pretend But check out our history So rich and revolutionary A prophecy that we will rise again Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Deep in the forest High up in the mountains To the future we will take an oath Like springing tigers we encircle the cities Our home is the undergrowth Because I am just a naxalite warrior Fighting for survival and equality Police man beating up me, my brother and my father My mother crying can't believe this reality Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Jump into the future dub zone Roots rockers And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours Because I am just a naxalite warrior Fighting for survival and equality Police man beating up me, my brother and my father My mother crying can't believe this reality Iron like a Lion from Zion This one going all the youth, man and woman Orginal Master D upon the microphone stand Cater for no skeptical man- me no give a damn 'Cos me a naxalite warrior |

For the consciousness of the nation
The sounds of the Asian Dub Foundation: The music we make It cuts across borders We never make music to someone else's orders Plenty of issues on the agenda if you want to lend a helping hand You're always told to shut up and dance But you have to change this-take a chance Turn the tables, We know you're able Don't just consume Make your own tune. The music, we use it We're making a stand I wouldn't call this a green and pleasant land A conscious response is what we demand Challenge the system and those in command Express your opinion It's your domain If you fail to do this You are partly to blame My heart is beating No retreat The battle continues We'll suffer no defeat This war you've been waging It's time we were raging In our minds And on the streets Sample this It's an education The sounds of the Asian Dub Foundation Look around you, yeah Open your mind Check it out, tell me what you find Here to document a situation The sounds of the Asian Dub Foundation Hope and glory A myth of the tories We're here to tell you a different story Here to readress the situation The sounds of the Asian Dub Foundation A rapper i may be But packaged I'm not I'll slip through the noose before you tie the knot This work in progress not slick but rough Breaking all records Twelve inches ain't enough Sample this It's an education The sounds of the original, the original .... We ain't ethnic, exotic or eclectic The only 'e' we use is electric An Asian background that's what's reflected But this millitant vibe ain't what you expected With your liberal minds You patronise our culture Scanning the surface like vultures With your tourist mentality we're still the natives You multicultural but we're anti-racist We ain't ethnic, exotic or eclectic The only 'e' we use is electric And we cry Them coulda never escape Disya judgement ...... |

I the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed no longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor no longer rings in battle Hear my warcry! I'm hear to teach you a lesson I'm hear to torture your soul I'm the itch in your side That's got out of control 'Gonna prey on your conscience You'll be praying for forgiveness Seen all the evidence No longer need a witness So take my word man Here's my sentence One hundred thousand years of repentance. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken It's my burning ambition to burn down your empire Man I'll be building you a funeral pyre The fire in my eyes If looks coulda kill I won't be satisfied until I've had my fill. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken Ami Bidrohi! I the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed no longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor no longer rings in battle Hear my warcry! Repetitive beats beating against your skull I'll be striking you down to the sounds of the wardrum The doum! The doum of the dhol taking its toll Null and void is what you've become An underground army with my brothers and sisters Hand to hand fighting building up a resistance Repetitive beats beating against your skull Null and void is what you've become Ami Bidrohi! I the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed no longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor no longer rings in battle Hear my warcry! Null and void is what you've become Take the long train to Bombay Dark ask the tombs came Your christmas set You won the freedom to forget Feeling good,vibration Which need to another nation Taking hurray taking hurray |

Take the long train to Bombay
Duck as the tunnels came Tune in your crystal set You've won the freedom to forget You've won the freedom to forget Feeling good migrations Tuned in to the mother nation Taking her aim Changing your name Now we're nomads That stay in one place Not a country Not a face Standing out but still like ghosts Long-term guests Ungracious hosts Re-written history A sleepy slavery Those sweet sweet sweet machines Senfling, selling Good migrations Tuned in to the mother nation Taking her aim Rearranging the chains .... The nine year old boy who had wanted to be white Set out on the journey from loneliness to pride Hostile environments along the way A slowly changing landscape But a steady stream of consciousness rising A steady stream of consciousness rising This is the journey from loneliness to pride No longer any need to hide .... Struggle to live And we cry struggle to survive Struggla, struggla, struggla, struggla Just to stay alive In the jungle you either do or you die You got to be aware You got to have the jungle eye .... |

Mohammed Singh Azad, No apologies
Not a shot in the dark, This is a warning The sleeping awakes each and every morning The time is now right to burst the imperial bubble And my act of revenge is just a part of he struggle A bullet to his head won't bring back the dead But it would lift the spirits of my people We'll keep on fighting we've been a nation abused You stiff upper lip will bleed and your pride will be bruised No apologies, not a shot in the dark This is a Warning The sleeping tiger awakes each and every morning The time is now right to burst the imperial bubble And my act of revenge is just a part of he struggle Synchronized time, vengeance will be mine As they cross the curzon line into his mind Into his home, I will burn the trophies he owns Symbols of a future postponed Mohammed Singh Azad, Sinbad A bullet to his head won't bring back the dead But it would lift the spirits of my people A bullet to his head won't bring back the dead But it would lift the spirits of my people I'll shake hands with the hang man, I'll wear the noose with pride For like the British I've no crimes to justify Pentonville will be my last place on earth And then death will return to me to the land of my birth |

G and d here has united
Black and white here to show you how we've been delighted The new generation since the mid nineties Showing you how it's done if you think you are a smartie Telling you the truth since we spotted each other We'd like to big up our elder sister and brother Cos they are the legend and they are like no other Trained by the greater legend - mother and father. Now we think jump up lyrics are alright But we'd like to broadcast a subject we know is not right Look at us - but don't look at us in disgust You know the reality and it's time to adjust Think to yourself, don't be foolish about it Fix up your brain or you'll be the target A black man and a white woman living together Face the facts all fascist perpetrators. And as the world is getting smaller ans smaller We can only be getting closer and closer Building this community of sound Celebrating the unity we've found And we know this is the model to follow For all the dub children of tomorrow As they grow under shifting skies We'll see every nation in their eyes Black and white here has united We're here to show you how we've been delighted Black and white here has united Building this community of sound. |

Better fix up your brains because you are the biggest fakers Come in the place better know who you are Self defence is no offence The scales of justice are weighed down on one side Freemasons on the case you know you're gonna get a rough ride Hold tight even if you know your rights It's just a piece of paper unless you're prepared to fight For ten years one hell of a long time To rot in a cell when you've committed no crime Another innocent man forced to carry the can Free Satpal Ram Free Satpal Ram Another innocent man Whose word against who ?

Satpal attacked in a restaurant by racists Now the brother's been locked up on a life time basis Convicted of murder but what's never mentioned Self defence was his only intention ADF once again taking to the stand Witness the jailing of an innocent man Kicking up a fuss because it could happen to us Time to join in the fight back Because enough is enough And it's back way to all the trouble makers Better fix up your brains because you're the biggest fakers Come in the place better know who you are FREE SATPAL RAM. |

A scream a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor Curtains colouring the windows Never see behind closed doors A silent siege behind politeness Domestic harmony for show Lost in the mirage of a marriage Outside a world she'll never know And as I see through the real you I'm falling straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Loving her children with a passion Protecting them at any cost Taking the only course of action There's no more bridges left to cross Who are the ones that are the guilty? Who are the ones that bear the scar? We must not leave our sisters bleeding We sing this song for Tsoora Shah And as I see through the real you I'm falling Straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time |

Babylon is really burning this time coming home to roost on a Soviet landmine Climbing out the subway burning eyes spinning head Walking through the. station breaking into a cold sweat Is the ticking time bomb in my head or your bag Have you been snorting white lines with President Gas Crawling from the wreckage of my tumblin' tower block Someone else had to finish the job It was the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy He's a friend Til he's the enemy again Starin' out the window at 50 000 feet At the mercy of the skies there's no escape velocity And as your eyes meet my skin see the terror on your face Do You want it to stop put yourself in their place Where what your life is worth depends on where you live Too many generations down the line to forgive If all you knew was total war from every side You'd have to decide Who's the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy Who's the enemy of the enemy He's a friend til he's the enemy again Choose the enemy Know the enemy Love the enemy Feed the enemy Sleep with the enemy Arm the enemy Sell the enemy Bomb the enemy Keep your friends close Keep your enemies closer |

Keep bangin on the walls OF FORTRESS EUROPE! 2022 -A new European order Robot guards patrolling the border Cybernetic dogs are getting closer and closer Armoured cars and immigration officers A burning village in Kosovo You bombed it out now you're telling us go home Machine guns strut on the cliffs of Dover Heads down people look out! we're going over Burnin up! can we survive re-entry Past the mines and the cybernetic sentries Safe european homes built on wars You don't like the effect don't produce the cause The chip is in your head not on my shoulder Total control just around the corner Open up the floodgates Time's nearly up Keep bangin on the walls of Fortress Europe Keep bangin Keep bangin on the walls of Fortress Europe We got a right, know the situation We're the children of globalisation No borders only true connection Light the fuse of the insurrection This generation has no nation Grass roots pressure the only solution We're sitting tight Cos assylum is a right Put an end to this confusion Dis is a 21st century Exodus Dis is a 21st century Exodus Burnin' up can we survive re-entry Past the landmines and cybernetic sentries Plane, train, car , ferry boat or bus The future is bleeding coming back at us The chip is in your head not on my shoulder Total control around the corner Open up the floodgates Time's nearly up Keep bangin on the walls of Fortress Europe Keep bangin Keep bangin on the walls of Fortress Europe This is a 21st century Exodus This is a 21st century Exodus They got a right - listen not to the scaremonger Who doesn't run when they're feel the hunger From where to what to when to here to there People caught up in red tape nightmare Break out of the detention centres Cut the wires and tear up the vouchers People get ready it's time to wake up Tear down the walls of Fortress Europe |

Somewhere in the ghetto where morality died
It's A rapid response and all the hand s are tied Ask the questions later raise the 45 Press it against his head watch him beg for his life Now you're the judge,the jury and the executioner sealin' his fate Now you're the judge,the jury and the executioner sealing his fate You're feeling the hate You never asked why it's two eyes for one eye Act on on instinct you know the truth from a lie And you spit at the man behind the video lens In his crazy theme park where the means are the ends Hate breeds hate and a beat makes a beat Can this bitter revenge can ever be so sweet? So you're the judge,the jury and the executioner , sealing his fate You're feeling the hate You're so close to the edge can you pull back in time There's a voice in your head and a voice from behind Appealing to reason helping you to make sense Of the mess that's around you Are you a spanner in the works or part of the plan Are you shaking or biting the invisible hand Is revenge the the only way that you can make a stand Its not how you fall -it's how you land IT'S HOW YOU LAND! Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner sealing his fate You're feeling the hate |

A scream a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor Curtains colouring the windows Never see behind closed doors A silent siege behind politeness Domestic harmony for show Lost in the mirage of a marriage Outside a world she'll never know And as I see through the real you I'm falling straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Loving her children with a passion Protecting them at any cost Taking the only course of action There's no more bridges left to cross Who are the ones that are the guilty? Who are the ones that bear the scar? We must not leave our sisters bleeding We sing this song for Tsoora Shah And as I see through the real you I'm falling Straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time |

I've noticed you only contact me when I've got some weed And when I'm in need to help you with something you need to do I must have been a fool cos now I see the real you You couldn't even look me in the eye I knew something was wrong you can't justify -it's all lies Telling me other's business and telling me how they be Come to think about it you could be doing it to me The pieces of the puzzle are now fitting into place I know what kind of person you are you're a disgrace I don't hold a grudge even though what you did I just can't trust you with absolutely anything If I see you it just hi and bye keep going my way Cos I've got things to do, I've got bills to pay I've had enough of your two faced company And that's the way its going to be my friend welcome to reality Remember the times it was cold outside Everyone said blurt but I said na come to mind Hours and hours of blazin', feel fine Did you think your parents would allow it at that time I didn't think so well now you know how It was growing up with ungrateful brothers about Makes me wanna scream, makes me wanna shout Ask what I did for them and their mind blacks out Day by day pushin me away others them a turn Others stayed tried to relate To make me see I was wrong no its too late Back biting, street fighting it the mess that was made Great I spent half my life with you guys Now you want to cut and rush me in front of my mothers eyes I don't know why you did it and you was high Two face people die twice no lie To all them a boy them a liar liar With their mouths on fire they say it's human nature They are playing with lives Slowly burning wire You'd better be aware cos in the end you'll suffer Two Face, two bait when it's written on your face Two fake, too straight when your out on the estate After all the lies you've gone and spread about me You put on your disguise and go on like we're sweet Who needs enenies when you've got brothers like these They be smiling when they're with you But you know it's full of cheese Oh please who else be trying to eat up our cake Your'e two, you're two, you're two face Cos they're the masters of deception They wanna bring you down Your phone keeps ringing taking you for a clown The threats keep coming make you wanna leave town Not before you find out who's behind this showdown Your best friends been makin others real mad You're tellin this dude eveything and now it's real sad He's rollin with your enemies and now they seem glad They know all they need and got their pen to the pad So why do they do what they do against you Fake arsed brothers you're life they want to screw It's true when I say all they want is attention To satisfy their needs with no consideration To all those people who've got more than one face You better be on your defense cos now were on the case The mace that you sprayed has been cleared from my eyes What comes around goes around you better realize Chorus 2 They come down your home pretend to be your mate But deep inside their souls it's just you that they hate And whenever you were hungry you placed food on their plate And any time they were in trouble You always helped them escape Indirect or direct they try to put you down Put you down, low down, way down Underground with no sound And all the bullshit that they talk They can't just even hold down With their mouth full of rubbish They try to spread around Two face two bait Two straight cos man your two fake Every time we come around you know we penetrate Every time you come around we must eliminate |

Enemy of the Enemy is a Friend (Til he's the enemy again)
Babylon is really burning this time coming home to roost on a Soviet landmine Climbing out the subway burning eyes spinning head Walking through the. station breaking into a cold sweat Is the ticking time bomb in my head or your bag Have you been snorting white lines with President Gas Crawling from the wreckage of my tumblin' tower block Someone else had to finish the job It was the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy He's a friend Til he's the enemy again Starin' out the window at 50 000 feet At the mercy of the skies there's no escape velocity And as your eyes meet my skin see the terror on your face Do You want it to stop put yourself in their place Where what your life is worth depends on where you live Too many generations down the line to forgive If all you knew was total war from every side You'd have to decide Who's the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy Who's the enemy of the enemy He's a friend til he's the enemy again Choose the enemy Know the enemy Love the enemy Feed the enemy Sleep with the enemy Arm the enemy Sell the enemy Bomb the enemy Keep your friends close Keep your enemies closer |

Who controls the past controls the present
And who controls the present controls the future The battle for the past is for the future Must be the winners of the memory war Smash reach out and then grab the flower At the end of the day their defeat will be for sure Have you inside your memory the scene of the crime If you don't have a clue then you're running out a time Struggle continues while di sunshine Past and the truth two of them you have to combine Because books dem a burnt and documents are shredded Cover ups are covered up in the name of the law Presidents and royalty caught red handed And you won't know about it for fifty years or more Come pay attention to the re-educator The battle for the past is now the battle for the future Fire for the messengers of this fake nostalgia Soon come judgement day Who controls the past controls the present And who controls the present controls the future The history they teach is the voice of the victor You need to look again you need to have a propaganda! If truth is your price then come join the bounty hunters Because truth make you the enemy of all these liars Because books dem a burnt and documents are shredded cover ups are covered up in the name of the law Presidents and royalty caught red handed And you won't know about it for fifty years or more Come pay attention to the re-educator The battle for the past is now the battle for the future Fire for the messengers of this fake nostalgia Soon come judgement day |

is the power line is the poverty line
Racism and imperialism work in tandem And poverty is their handmaiden Those who are poor and powerless to break out of their poverty Are also those who by and large are non-white, non-western, third world Poverty and powerlessness are interwined in colour, in race Discrimination and exploitation feed into each other today Under global capitalism We are back to primitive accumulation - plunder on a world scale Only this time the pillage is accompanied by aid sustained by expert advice and underpinned by programmes and policies that perpetuate dependency The IMF, The World Bank, Structural Adjustment Programmes General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade - GATT, are just a few of the organisations, schemes, projects which under the guise of developing the third world, plunder it. Trade agreements and commodity prize-fixing patents and intellectual property rights They lock them into paralytic dependency There's no such thing as illegal immigrants, only illegal governments Black is not just the colour of our skins It's the colour of our politics There's no such thing as illegal immigrants, only illegal governments Today, the colour line is the power line / is the poverty line |

Truth hides under fallen rocks and stones
At the end of a disconnected phone (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides buried deep beneath your feet At the end of an unmarked street (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides with the people written out of history Black leaders and inventors whose names remain a mystery Great women recorded on ripped out pages Obliterated wisdom, covered up faces Truth is lost in the mists of eMpTy Vision, And found in the notebooks of those wrongfully imprisoned, and in the evidence that was never brought to trial, but not in the void behind the newsreaders' smile. Truth hides under fallen rocks and stones At the end of a disconnected phone (that's where the truth hides) Truth hides at the end of an unmarked street Stored (?) deep beneath your feet (that's where the truth hides) [Chorus (x2):] Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Down an unmarked street Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Truth hides whenever we lose our focus Slips out the back, quickly replaced by the bogus, fleeing soundbites disguised as facts That reappear in the small print on every contract Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror In countless documents sent straight to the shredder That might finally give us the whole of the picture But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper We know that truth will hide Under fallen rocks and stones At the end of a disconnected phone Down an unmarked street And buried deep beneath your feet [Chorus (x5):] Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line Down an unmarked street Truth it's a hide under rocks and stones At the end of your line... |

I'll be honest with you:
I hate war in all it's forms- Physical, Psychological, Spiritual... Emotional... Environmental I hate war... And I hate having to struggle - I honestly do because I wish I had been into a world where it was unnecessary. This context of struggle and being a warrior and being a struggler has been forced on me by oppression. Otherwise I would be a sculptor, or a gardener, carpenter - you know, I would be free to be so much more... I guess part of me or a part of who I am, a part of what I do is being a warrior - a reluctant warrior, a reluctant struggler But... I do it because I'm committed to life We can't avoid it, we can't run away from it Because to do that is to be... cowardice- to do that is to be subservient... to devils, subservient to evil and so that the only way to live on this planet With any human dignity at the moment is to struggle I'll be honest with you: I hate war in all it's forms- Physical, Psychological, Spiritual...

Step Back from the Blow Back
Plans that were hatched with the strings still attached See there's always a catch When you're livin' thru a blow back You're wonderin' why you need places to hide Keep one eye to the sky when you're waiting for the blowback Sink into the mud watch out for the scud Cos oil is thicker than blood in the world of blowback From ally to madman from client to badman From Gommorah to Sadaam Starring in the blowback Invisible sins Invisible Kings The shit we're in gonna drown in the spin Permanent warfare Burning up welfare Add up add up Their share of the hardware Rights disposed of Government gloves off Flick of the wrist Summary justice Feel the kiss of the U.S. fist Hollywood, Hollywood tinsel this Fanning the flames of fanatical fervour One bad turn always deserves another Covert and subvert and secret operation Still sufferin the conequence of active inaction Tunnelling through mountains building networks of caves $40 billion dollars for 40,000 graves Collateral damage and friendly fire Talking the talk of the undercover empire (live and direct from the undercover empire) What's the rules of engagement What's the price of containment Can we come to an arrangement Make a buck off the blowback They don't know about this flow Watch the pipe line and oil show It's McWorld and fries to go Starring in the blowback One-sided triangle squarin' the circle Pentagonal diagonal Caught out in the Blowback Is it really all over Are we living in endtime Don't we know that there's no time STEP BACK FROM THE BLOWBACK Control we now have air superiority Their only plane was the one we sold them last week As leaflets, food parcels explode into nails Bush chokes on a pretzel and Clinton exhales Sayin' Cool down India cool down Pakistan Here comes your new billion dollar air squadron Laying down a pipeline through Kazakstan This ends this broadcast live from ABSURDISTAN Live and direct from London, Absurdistan |

My ears are burning, my back has started to bleed
I've noticed you only contact me when I've got some weed And when I'm in need to help you with something you need to do I must have been a fool cos now I see the real you You couldn't even look me in the eye I knew something was wrong you can't justify -it's all lies Telling me other's business and telling me how they be Come to think about it you could be doing it to me The pieces of the puzzle are now fitting into place I know what kind of person you are you're a disgrace I don't hold a grudge even though what you did I just can't trust you with absolutely anything If I see you it just hi and bye keep going my way Cos I've got things to do, I've got bills to pay I've had enough of your two faced company And that's the way its going to be my friend welcome to reality Remember the times it was cold outside Everyone said blurt but I said na come to mind Hours and hours of blazin', feel fine Did you think your parents would allow it at that time I didn't think so well now you know how It was growing up with ungrateful brothers about Makes me wanna scream, makes me wanna shout Ask what I did for them and their mind blacks out Day by day pushin me away others them a turn Others stayed tried to relate To make me see I was wrong no its too late Back biting, street fighting it the mess that was made Great I spent half my life with you guys Now you want to cut and rush me in front of my mothers eyes I don't know why you did it and you was high Two face people die twice no lie To all them a boy them a liar liar With their mouths on fire they say it's human nature They are playing with lives Slowly burning wire You'd better be aware cos in the end you'll suffer Two Face, two bait when it's written on your face Two fake, too straight when your out on the estate After all the lies you've gone and spread about me You put on your disguise and go on like we're sweet Who needs enenies when you've got brothers like these They be smiling when they're with you But you know it's full of cheese Oh please who else be trying to eat up our cake Your'e two, you're two, you're two face Cos they're the masters of deception They wanna bring you down Your phone keeps ringing taking you for a clown The threats keep coming make you wanna leave town Not before you find out who's behind this showdown Your best friends been makin others real mad You're tellin this dude eveything and now it's real sad He's rollin with your enemies and now they seem glad They know all they need and got their pen to the pad So why do they do what they do against you Fake arsed brothers you're life they want to screw It's true when I say all they want is attention To satisfy their needs with no consideration To all those people who've got more than one face You better be on your defense cos now were on the case The mace that you sprayed has been cleared from my eyes What comes around goes around you better realize Chorus 2 They come down your home pretend to be your mate But deep inside their souls it's just you that they hate And whenever you were hungry you placed food on their plate And any time they were in trouble You always helped them escape Indirect or direct they try to put you down Put you down, low down, way down Underground with no sound And all the bullshit that they talk They can't just even hold down With their mouth full of rubbish They try to spread around Two face two bait Two straight cos man your two fake Every time we come around you know we penetrate Every time you come around we must eliminate |

Enemy of the Enemy is a Friend (Til he's the enemy again)
Babylon is really burning this time coming home to roost on a Soviet landmine Climbing out the subway burning eyes spinning head Walking through the. station breaking into a cold sweat Is the ticking time bomb in my head or your bag Have you been snorting white lines with President Gas Crawling from the wreckage of my tumblin' tower block Someone else had to finish the job It was the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy He's a friend Til he's the enemy again Starin' out the window at 50 000 feet At the mercy of the skies there's no escape velocity And as your eyes meet my skin see the terror on your face Do You want it to stop put yourself in their place Where what your life is worth depends on where you live Too many generations down the line to forgive If all you knew was total war from every side You'd have to decide Who's the enemy of the enemy The enemy of the enemy Who's the enemy of the enemy He's a friend til he's the enemy again Choose the enemy Know the enemy Love the enemy Feed the enemy Sleep with the enemy Arm the enemy Sell the enemy Bomb the enemy Keep your friends close Keep your enemies closer |

Somewhere in the ghetto where morality died
It's A rapid response and all the hand s are tied Ask the questions later raise the 45 Press it against his head watch him beg for his life Now you're the judge,the jury and the executioner sealin' his fate Now you're the judge,the jury and the executioner sealing his fate You're feeling the hate You never asked why it's two eyes for one eye Act on on instinct you know the truth from a lie And you spit at the man behind the video lens In his crazy theme park where the means are the ends Hate breeds hate and a beat makes a beat Can this bitter revenge can ever be so sweet? So you're the judge,the jury and the executioner , sealing his fate You're feeling the hate You're so close to the edge can you pull back in time There's a voice in your head and a voice from behind Appealing to reason helping you to make sense Of the mess that's around you Are you a spanner in the works or part of the plan Are you shaking or biting the invisible hand Is revenge the the only way that you can make a stand Its not how you fall -it's how you land IT'S HOW YOU LAND! Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner Are you the judge the jury and the executioner sealing his fate You're feeling the hate |

Brothers and sisters of the soul unite
We are one indivisible and strong They may try to break us but they dare not under estimate us They know our memories are long A mass of sleeping villages That's how they're pitching it At least that's what they try to pretend But check out our history So rich and revolutionary A prophecy that we will rise again Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Deep in the forest High up in the mountains To the future we will take an oath Like springing tigers we encircle the cities Our home is the undergrowth Because I am just a naxalite warrior Fighting for survival and equality Police man beating up me, my brother and my father My mother crying can't believe this reality Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Again and again until the land is ours Again and again until we have taken the power Jump into the future dub zone Roots rockers And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours And we have taken the power And the land is ours Because I am just a naxalite warrior Fighting for survival and equality Police man beating up me, my brother and my father My mother crying can't believe this reality Iron like a Lion from Zion This one going all the youth, man and woman Orginal Master D upon the microphone stand Cater for no skeptical man- me no give a damn 'Cos me a naxalite warrior |

And we say back way to all the trouble makers
Better fix up your brains because you are the biggest fakers Come in the place better know who you are Self defence is no offence The scales of justice are weighed down on one side Freemasons on the case you know you're gonna get a rough ride Hold tight even if you know your rights It's just a piece of paper unless you're prepared to fight For ten years one hell of a long time To rot in a cell when you've committed no crime Another innocent man forced to carry the can Free Satpal Ram Free Satpal Ram Another innocent man Whose word against who ? Whose word against who ? The degenerate crew Out on the town thought they had something to prove Self defence - only offence - had to protect himself from all the murdering fools Cutting remarks on account of his race A plate to his chest and a glass to his face An Asian fights back can't afford to be meek With your back against the wall you can't turn the other cheek And its back way to all the trouble makers Better fix up your brain because you're the biggest fakers Come in the place better know who you are Free Satpal Ram Another innocent man Birmingham six Bridgewater four Crown prosecution totting up the score Kings Cross two Guildford four Winston Silcott - man how many more ? Satpal attacked in a restaurant by racists Now the brother's been locked up on a life time basis Convicted of murder but what's never mentioned Self defence was his only intention ADF once again taking to the stand Witness the jailing of an innocent man Kicking up a fuss because it could happen to us Time to join in the fight back Because enough is enough And it's back way to all the trouble makers Better fix up your brains because you're the biggest fakers Come in the place better know who you are FREE SATPAL RAM. |

Ami bidrohi!
I am the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! I'm here to teach you a lesson I'm here to torture your soul I'm the itch in your side that's got out of control 'Gonna prey on your conscience You'll be praying for forgiveness Seen all the evidence No longer need a witness So take my word man Here's my sentence One hundred thousand years of repentance. One hundred thousand years of repentance. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken It's my burning ambition to burn down your empire Man I'll be building you a funeral pyre The fire in my eyes If looks coulda kill I won't be satisfied until I've had my fill. Check my anger, it's real Ain't no token I'll be satisfied only when your back's been broken! Ami bidrohi! I am the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! Repetitive beats Beating against your skull I'll be striking you down to the sound of the war drum The doum! The doum of the dhol Taking its toll Null and void is what you've become An underground army with my brothers and sisters Hand to hand fighting Building up a resistance Repetitive beats Beating against your skull Null and void is what you've become Ami bidrohi! I am the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! A radical fusion Strange alliance The siren and the flute in unison 'Cos it's a part of my mission To break down division Mental compartments Psychological prisons. I'll be sowing the seeds of community Accommodating every color every need So listen to my message And heed my warning I'm telling you now how a new age is dawning Ami bidrohi! I am the Rebel Warrior I have risen alone With my head held high I will only rest when the cries of the oppressed No longer reach the sky When the sound of the sword of the oppressor No longer rings in battle Hear my war cry! Ami Bidrohi! Ami Bidrohi! Yes the unity of the Muslim and the Hindu Will end your tyranny Ami Bidrohi! Ami Bidrohi! |

A scream a shout far in the distance
Maybe the first or second floor Curtains colouring the windows Never see behind closed doors A silent siege behind politeness Domestic harmony for show Lost in the mirage of a marriage Outside a world she'll never know And as I see through the real you I'm falling straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Loving her children with a passion Protecting them at any cost Taking the only course of action There's no more bridges left to cross Who are the ones that are the guilty? Who are the ones that bear the scar? We must not leave our sisters bleeding We sing this song for Tsoora Shah And as I see through the real you I'm falling Straight into A thousand broken mirrors I can't hide And outside the bright lights Can't hide the pain inside And I've broken a thousand mirrors Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time Now it's time |
