Collective Mode Lyrics

    Written by: das, pandit, savale, tailor, zaman


    For every opportunity we squeeze de last drop
    Seeds sown inna de past and now we're reaping de crop
    Yer, spreading de roots an we're no longer under-ground
    Those dat turned away are now turning around
    Homebeats and high-hats mightier than de sword
    Version excursions an breaks from abroad
    Too many secret histories dat have never been told
    Reveal hidden agendas
    Remove de blindfold

    Examine de story before you tek de stage
    Unscramble freaktalk displayed pon de front page
    Frequency flashing synchronised like strobe
    Can't do it alone you need to get into de collective mode
    Need to get into de collective mode

    We're taking note of every brand new sound
    Keeping our minds open
    Cor we know we're future bound
    Together we must recognise the signs of our times
    Together we must learn to read between the lines
    Make your own programme
    No bother become digital captive
    You need some audio
    So you must be active
    Get into collective mode
    Spirits become positive
    You live de life you love
    An you love the life you give
    No-one is an island whether you like it or not
    All inna di same boat which is about to be rocked
    Warning light flashing synchronised like strobe
    Can't do it alone you need to get into de collective mode

    Do you spend too much time living inside your head
    Worry too much about what the other man said
    Need to pay heed to dis sonic reflection
    Turn dis disconnection into interconnection
    And get into de collective mode
