Debris Lyrics

    Written by: das, savale, pandit, zaman


    Spread power with words

    The gold that you stole
    The pillage and the plunder
    Is it any wonder that we're here?
    It ain't no mystery
    The fecting and the shooting
    That's the real history
    We're only here 'cos you were there
    Consequences of your global pillage

    I never had the feeling to either destroy or conquer

    I sift to the debris you left in your wake
    When you pushed us in to third place
    When the truth is uncovered and the story's been told
    You won't be able to look me in the face .....

    We're only here 'cos you were there
    Here in england a global village
    Consequences of your global pillage

    Master d chat it up ....

    I sift to the debris you left in your wake
    When you pushed us in to third place
    When the truth is uncovered and the story's been told
    You won't be able to look me in the face .....

    You treated my mother's land
    Just like one big plantation
    You did this to the african
    You did this to the asian
    Famine was caused not by god but taxation
    The fruits of our labour were used to build your nation
    Sucking us dry - our country's natural juice

    Yes our underdevelopment was caused by your abuse.

    Gonna check the missing pages
    We'll be adding up the numbers
    We'll be looking for witnesses so they can tell our brothers
    We'll be using the technology
    Jammin' with it consciously
    We are gonna spread power with words.
