lyrics

Delhi Sultanate:
living in these modern days again
Modern day Indians we behave like slaves again
Sometimes I wish I could bring it back to way back when
1857 – make fists raise again
Delhi Sultanate alongside Bant
On the riddim man ah get militant
How long dem keep my people ignorant
Cyan you see corruption a rampant
How much money dem have ina swiss bank
How much money dem have ina swiss bank
Dancehall a di people dem tink tank
Music a di people dem tink tank
Cuz one day dema make di shotgun pump
Cuz one day dem a mek di shotgun pump

Bant Singh:
Those who (Government) made false promises are now trembling
The will to tell the truth has awakened across the nation x 2
Workers jammed the railway tracks, stopping American goods from coming in
…Russia got worried too
The American economy is shattered and it is losing wars everywhere
The will to tell the truth has awakened across the nation

Delhi Sultanate:
Chidambaram has money ina swiss bank
Sharad Pawar has money in a swiss bank
All bigger heads have money ina swiss bank
Make the shotgun pump

The gun them buss
Rougher than rough
Suffer in silence – news never cover you much
Cuz dem love violence now we’re ina news flash
Now prime minister a say insurgency must crush

And so its encounter killing
And nuff ina hand cuff
Nuff leader madden madden ina god rush
And GK man dem live posher than posh
The flipside of capitalist life style

Bant Singh:
Roads are flooded with homeless, hungry people
Raising their flags to fight against injustice
People everywhere are revolting against capitalists who are hungry for money
The will to tell the truth has awakened across the nation x 2
Workers have been demanding their rights from the electricity board
In their anger, they cut the wires and destroyed the poles
Traders of the dark (corporate sector and corrupt government) are neglecting the rights of the poor

Youths dem dead again dead again
Gunshot dem ina head again head again

And the earth run red again red again
Try work dem daily bread again bread again

Delhi Sultanate alongside Bant
On the riddim man ah get militant
How long dem keep my people ignorant
Raketeer and corruption a rampant
Chidambaram money ina swiss bank
Sharad Pawar money ina swiss bank
All bigger heads money ina swiss bank
One day we’ll make the shotgun pump

Just imagine if these outtakes made it into EATEOT, the project would've been over seven hours! I love how "I Might Be Vanishing" is a stark contrast from other tracks, being only nine seconds. 913GA

Universal Beings
by Makaya McCraven

I was brought here after listening to a live performance of Makaya's on you tube. I instantly loved the song Holy Lands so much that I had to see if the album version was the same rendition as the live one. Then I listened to the whole album! Universal Beings is a just a groove... It's a mix of traditional and something new, very nice. pandr1900
