Jericho Lyrics – Asian Dub Foundation
Singer: Asian Dub Foundation
Title: Jericho
For the consciousness of the nation
The music we make It cuts across borders
We never make music to someone else’s orders
Plenty of issues on the agenda
If you want to lend a helping hand
You’re always told to shut up and dance
But you have to change this-take a chance
Turn the tables, we know you’re able
Don’t just consume, make your own tune
The music, we use it, we’re making a stand
I wouldn’t call this a green and pleasant land
A conscious response is what we demand
Challenge the system and those in command
Express your opinion, it’s your domain
If you fail to do this, you are partly to blame
My heart is beating, no retreat
The battle continues, we’ll suffer no defeat
This war you’ve been waging, it’s time we were raging
In our minds and on the streets
Sample this, it’s an education
Look around you, yeah, open your mind
Check it out, tell me what you find
Here to document a situation
Hope and glory, a myth of the stories
We’re here to tell you a different story
Here to readdress the situation
A rapper I may be but packaged I’m not
I’ll slip through the noose before you tie the knot
This work in progress not slick but rough
Breaking all records, twelve inches ain’t enough
Sample this, it’s an education
The sounds of the original, the original
We ain’t ethnic, exotic or eclectic
The only ‘E’ we use is electric
An Asian background that’s what’s reflected
But this militant vibe ain’t what you expected
With your liberal minds, you patronize our culture
Scanning the surface like vultures
With your tourist mentality, we’re still the natives
You multicultural but we’re anti-racist
We ain’t ethnic, exotic or eclectic
The only ‘e’ we use is electric
And we cry
Them coulda never escape
Disya judgment
