Asian Dub Foundation - Journey

Tekst :

Take the long train to Bombay
Duck as the tunnels came
Tune in your crystal set
You ve won the freedom to forget
Feeling good migrations
Tuned in to the mother nation
Taking her aim
Changing your name
Now we re nomads
That stay in one place
Not a country
Not a face
Standing out but still like ghosts
Long-term guests
Ungracious hosts
Re-written history
A sleepy slavery
Those sweet sweet sweet machines
Sending, selling
Good migrations
Tuned in to the mother nation
Taking her aim
Rearranging the chains...
The nine year old boy
who had wanted to be white
Set out on the journey
from loneliness to pride
Hostile environments along the way
A slowly changing landscape
But a steady stream of consciousness rising
A steady stream of consciousness rising
This is the journey from Loneliness to pride
No longer any need to hide...
Struggle to live
And we cry struggle to survive
Struggla, struggla, struggla, struggla
Just to stay alive
In the jungle you eighter do or you die
You got to be aware
You got to have the jungle eye...

    These things

    To know and see you for a time
    See through another point of you

    Falling

    (Death of a tree)

    I ll awake to find your love
    falling like leaves to the ground
    I ll awake to find your love
    falling like leaves
    you will look to find me down
    upon my knees without a sound
    you will look to find me down
    upon my knees

    then we can fling wide the gates
    let go the...
