ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION lyrics : "Debris"

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 footing and the shooting

This is 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 through 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 through 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 for the missing pages
We'll be adding up the numbers
We'll be looking for the witnesses

So they can tell our brothers
We'll be using the technology
Jammin' with it consciously

We are gonna
Spread power with words
