NAXALITE

Brothers and sisters of the soul unite we are one, indivisible and strong
They may try to break us but they dare not underestimate us, they know our memories are long
A mass of sleeping villages, thats how they're pitching us, at least thats what they try to pretend
But check out our history so rich and revolutionary a prophecy that we will rise again
Again and again till 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 will encircle, 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 father, my mom crying can't believe this reality
Again and again till 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
Because I am just a naxalite warrior fighting for survival and equality
policeman 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 out to all the youth, man and women
Ordinal master D upon the microphone stand cater for no skeptical man - me no give a damn
COS ME A NAXALITE WARRIOR

BUZZIN'

This is a miracle of modern creation
so we say jump, jump up cos you know we are buzzin
Get up, get up come on and do something like a fly in the sky forever
Working! I know we shock and sting every time we getup, getup
This is a miracle of modern creation,
we come out the tunnel not twisted or bitter, look to the future with a sound that is fitter
equipping our minds to deal with every situation this here's a miracle of modern creation
abandon all your first impressions, come and take a part in this conscious session
Look to the past to get inspiration, move yourself forward with a dub acceleration
Can't live my life with know rythem or rhyme, done enough chilling got to organise my time
Yo no Seh I ain't standing still, just watch me now I've got a lifetime to fill
Cos I'm Buzzin, yeah jump up, jump up cos you know we're buzzin
Anytime we come we shock and sting
We've come so far so fast laying down foundations, paying the way for the next generation
What we deal with Millennium training come jump aboard now there is enough time remaining
Been checking the roots so we know where we are going
Time we were reaping for the years that we've been sowing

BLACK WHITE

J and D here united, Black and White here to show you how we've been delighted
The new generation, since the mid nineties
Showing you how its done if you think you are a smartie
Telling the truth since we've spotted each other
We'd like to big up our elder sister and brother
Because 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 that we know is not right
Look at-us but don't look at us in discust
Because you know the reality and its time to adjust
Think to yourself - don't be foolish about it
Fix up your brain or you will be the target
Face the facts you fascist perpirtrator
And as the world is getting smaller and smaller and we can only get closer and closer
Building this community of sound, celebrating the unity we've found
And we know this is a model to follow for all the dub children of tomorrow As they grow under the shifting skies, we'll see every nation in their eyes Black and white here has united
Were here to show you how we've been delighted
Black and white here has united
Building this community of sound

ASSASSIN

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, Zindabad!
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

HYPOCRITE

We gonna get inside your mind
Hypocrites! You will pay for your crimes
Hypocrites! We're gonna bleed you dry
Your pockets will be empty but you wont know why
Redistribution is the name of the game
All the cash that you stashed man, we're going to give away
Lizard man beware this is the digital under class
Coming from places you've only seen from your car
Accountant, lawyer, financial advisor, PR consultant, journalist, advertiser
We know your game and you think that we're playing it
but when the bill comes though the door you're going to be paying it
Hypocrites! We gonna get inside your mind
Hypocrites! You will pay for your crimes
Hypocrites! We're gonna bleed you dry
Your pockets will be empty but you wont know why
ADF definitatly without a doubt have the skills to pay the bills
The word is community we shout it with impunity
It's so uncool, It's incendiary
No slogan, no sound bites, but a long term plan
Teaching the framework, building chains of command
So when the lizard man sticks out his tongue
We pull out our scissors and do a hit and run
This is the digital under class
Yes this is the digital underclass
ADF definitatly without a doubt have the skills to pay the bills

FREE SATPAL RAM

Back way to all the trouble makers, better fix up your brains because your the biggest fakers
Come in the place better know who you are, Self Defence is no Offence
The scales of justice weighed down on one side
Freemasons on the case, you know you're gonna get a rough ride
Hold tight even if you know you're rights
It's just a piece of paper unless you're prepared to fight
For twelve 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, just another innocent man
Who's word against who
The degenerate crew out on the town thought they had something to prove
Self defence is no offence
Had to protect himself from the marauding fools
Cutting remarks on account of his race, a plate to the chest and a glass in his face
An Asian fights back, can't afford to be meek
With your back up against the wall you can't be turning the other cheek
And we say back away to all the troublemakers
Fix up your brains 'cause you're the biggest fakers
You come in a di place, do you know who you are?
Free Satpal Ram, Free Satpal Ram
Another innocent man
just another innocent man
Birmingham 6, Bridgewater 4, Crown Prosecution totting up the score
King's Cross 2, Guildford 4, Winston Silcott, how many more?
Satpal attacked in a restaurant by racists
Now the brother's locked up on a lifetime basis
Convicted of murder but what was 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 'cause it could happen to us
Time to join in the fight back, because enough is enough!
And we say back away to all the troublemakers
Fix up your brains 'cause you're the biggest fakers
You come in a di place, do you know who you are?
Free Satpal Ram!

BACK ON LYRICS

DUB MENTALITY

Dub is a place we come to argue and debate, it isn't just a backdrop for our herbal intake
And in this time we fill the space with noise, black noise will be sound you can't avoid
Were raising our voices to reflect our reality using dub as our foundation because we've got Dub Mentality
Listen to the sound of the drum and the bass, different community meet up in the same place
We are mixing the flavors to suit every taste, this music have the power for all the human race
Dub is the teacher, jungle is the preacher, dub education through the jungle a go reach ya
Cut and a splice and a regeneration, militant mix and a equalization
These are the methods for a serious operation, pushing back the borders of your music civilization
So listen without prejudice and without delay to the sound of the Asian Dub Foundation today
And in this time we fill the space with noise, black noise will be sound you can't avoid
Listen to the sound of the drum and the bass, different community meet up in the same place
We are mixing the flavors to suit every taste, this music have the power for all the human race
Dub is the teacher, jungle is the preacher, Dub is the teacher, jungle is the preacher

CULTURE MOVE

Now watch this! All the massive them come do the culture move
This collaboration herewith no ego trip, we bring no badness no fuss no fighting with it
Education why don't you keep up with this, time to play attention to the conscious lyrics
What them do a man what them chat about, the youth after 9'oclock can't stay out
Government man he is a just a run up on his mouth, hear! what him say will happen without a doubt
Cannot think for himself copy the American, to bring up the tension bring the idea to Britain
Now when the law is done he'll have his satisfaction, then it will be for life for all youth, man and woman
Who goes there the original Asian Dub Foundation, alongside Navigator on the MIC
Up here reality we talk and strictly culture, culture on the move this year
Heyheyheyheyheyheyheyhey...Asian Dub Foundation, Heyheyheyheyheyheyheyhey.....
Kingdom gains kingdom and nation gains nation, time we are living it's called revelation
'Cos when you take a stock of the whole situation, the elders them a poison the young generation
Instead of them trying to build a firm foundation , them bring human beings down to pure degradation
With chemical warfare and nuclear weapons, starvation, sufferation and humanization
The world population have to take precautions from pollution, corruption, infection, deception
Politions claim that they've got the solution, but deep in their hearts they have a wicked intention
To rinse out poor people with tax and inflation, segregation the massive, separation the nation
You think a so it goes why don't you answer my question
You'd better think again before you turn into a madman
All the massive in the place do culture move, All the massive in the place do culture move
This one is for all the microphone entertainers, you have the tools you have the talent to be an educator
STOP the slackness and tell them proper, encourage the massive to become their own creator
Because in this time you have to understand, that the government man's going to try mash up man plan
So direct the crowd and give them navigation and believe you me you'll get a wicked reaction
Heyheyheyheyheyheyheyhey...Asian Dub Foundation
Sound of the culture on the move, you'd better be conscious in everything that you do

OPERATION EAGLE

Lies damn lies and statistics
Fitting up and stitiching up down at statistics
The back of the van it ain't used for seating
Just check through the windows the youth them get a beating
Meet P.C. P.R. the designer policeman
Putting up a smokescreen with his multi coloured trunchen
Shake a few bad apples off the long arm of the law, but he know and we know that it's rotten to the core
Black man on a double yellow yes he's a criminal
A racial attack-investigation minimal
You'll always find us on the end of a baton
When the black meets the blue you know who's getting spat on
Now i'm giving to you and i'm driving into you
The truth - no number crunching-it's just your mind that we are mugging
ADF taking them on at I-Spy
Watching them watchin us Operation Eagle Lie
Unity is strength and strength is unity
IC1, IC2 and also IC3
All together we can defend the whole community
One people, all nations to reach their destiny
Before the devil man used to use the trunchen
To kill the black man is still his dream ambition
Now they have swat batons and CCTV
For unusual people just like you and me
Young sisters and brothers dying from heart attacks
But how can we breath when the beast is on our back
CS Gas in your lungs, Eyes and your mouth
Just another police murder without a doubt
CPS is the piggies alibi
None of them prepared to be the fall guy
ADF taking them on at I-Spy
Watching them watchin us Operation Eagle Lie

CHANGE

Look through the square or round window now a change gonna come
Whether you come by bus or underground still a change gonna come
If you're north or if you're south you know a change gonna come
Whether by fax or by word of mouth still a change gonna come
Meters peaking, truth is leaking out into the stick
Too late no turning back now because the switches have been flicked, goal posts moved
Sign posts pointing you the wrong way, they're screwed up
You're queuing up, come back another day
If you're older or if you're young you know a change gonna come
No matter where you come from, what colour black, white or brown
Government man plan, mash up in a Britian
Criminal justice bill me brawl, where they get it from?
They can't understand, just want to build up tension
But just whatch the future because a change gonna come
ADF is here to show you how it should be done and we know that this style is identicle to none
Yeah! Bureaucrat and fat cat, too long the've had their way
A breeze of sleeze coming to blow them away
Satelites crashing down on India, we say No Way!
ADF broadcasting we no ramp, we no play, we get mad!
What them a say, what they chant about?
This is reality man, you can't run ADF out
What them a do what they talk about
All you polititions a run up your mouth
Man give me joke......
