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. |

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. |

I believe in the life-long learning 'Ain't gonna take away this natural yearning To know the truth The truth about the lies you've been giving It's not a state of affairs that that I'm prepared to live in I will find out for myself No I ain't gonna be your clone Ain't gonna be working my fingers to the bone To feed your mouths When the poor around me are starving And you the fat cats are sitting pretty and laughing I will do it in spite of you I'll educate myself Then I'll empower others So that we can make our own wealth Yes I'll empower others So that we can make our own wealth |

Lies! Damn lies and statistics
Fitting up and stitching down at ballistics The back of the van it ain't used for seating Just check through the window the youth them get a beating Meet P.C P.R the designer policeman Putting up a smokescreen with his multi coloured truncheon Shake a few bad apples off the long arm of the law But he knows and we know that it's rotten to the core Black man on a double yellow 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 watching 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 truncheon 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 without a doubt CPS is the piggies alibi None of them ever prepared to be the fall guy ADF taking them on at I- spy Watching them watching us operation eagle lie. |

[Chorus:]
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 won't know why Redistribution is the name of the game All the cash that you stashed man We're gonna give away Lizard man beware this is the digital under class Coming from places that 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 When the bill comes through the door you're gonna be paying it [Chorus] ADF definitely 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 slogans, no sound bites, but a long term plan Teaching is the frame work 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 underclass Yes this is the digital underclass ADF definitely without a doubt have the skills to pay the bills |

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 |

Dub is the 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 a sound you can't avoid We're 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 communities meet up in the same place We are mixing the flavours to suit every taste This music have the power for all of 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 regeneration Militant mix and equalisation These are the methods for a serious operation Pushing back the borders of your musical civilisation 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 a sound you can't avoid Listen to the sound of the drum and the bass Different communities meet up in the same place We are mixing the flavours to suit every taste This music has the power for all the human race Dub is the teacher Jungle is the preacher Dub is the preacher Jungle is the teacher Dub is the teacher Jungle is the teacher Dub education through the jungle a go reach ya. Dub is the teacher Jungle is the teacher Dub education through the jungle a go reach ya. Dub is the teacher Jungle is the teacher Dub education through the jungle a go reach ya. |
