  1. 'DEMOCRACY IS HYPOCRISY'
    LYRICS by Ras Tewelde

    Mi nah know what dem chat 'bout
    when dem talk 'bout mi securtiy
    Now tell me what dem chat 'bout
    Dem only fight for mi liberty
    While another youth a shoot
    down ina di bakklefield
    Another mother a ball
    down ina di street...

    Da one ya a wha dem call a true democracy
    but memba wha a seh mi breda Malcom X
    Democracy is Hipocricy is wha we see
    And if dem cyaan prove da contrary
    cyaan put dem hands on me
    'Ca if democracy is freedom - why don't we have people free
    If democracy is justice - tell me where is this justice
    And if it means equal right - why don't we have equality
    And if dem care for humanity - why dem bring war and not peace
    A crazy thing dat!

    Mi nah know what dem chat 'bout
    when dem talk 'bout mi securtiy
    Now tell me what dem chat 'bout
    Dem only fight for mi lberty
    While another youth a shoot
    down ina di bakklefield
    Another mother a ball
    down ina di street...

    Dem seh dem specialist
    That is the reason why dem exporting it
    But everywhere dem go people still struggling
    da only thing dem bring a dem bullet and dem gun machines
    Dem solution is distruction
    Starvation, tons of bombs and segregation
    Afta dat - with dem money and dem corruption
    Dem a run - fi rebuild da nation

    Mi nah know what dem chat 'bout
    when dem talk 'bout mi securtiy
    Now tell me what dem chat 'bout
    Dem only fight for mi lberty
    While another youth a shoot
    down ina di bakklefield
    Another mother a ball
    down ina di street...

    And di International organizations
    should protect people from sufferation
    but if you check you can see wha a gwaan
    Dem nah give people wha dem need, wha dem waan
    Look at da International Monetary Fund
    Look at da U.N. - look at World Bank
    Wha dem a do ina Iraq and in Afghanistan
    Dem just a part ina di system of di dutty Babylon
