|
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 ...... |
