Lyrics

There's no-one coming with that freedom train.  
There's nowhere you can go where you feel no pain.  
Take the blinkers off you eye's,  
The power is in your hand.  
Stop waiting for your ticket to the promised land.  
There ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell.  
Except the one we're in, and you know to well  
There's no-one waiting on,  
Waiting on a higher high.  
Don't let the only world you're ever gonna live in pass you by.  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Rub two dub burn ital collie  
Because the rhythm a the marshall  
And the rhythm a no partial go deh  
Seh the rhythm a the marshall  
And the rhythm a no partial  
Rub two dub burn ital collie  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Because you jamming with you brethren  
Jam it 'till a morning  
Forget about the warning  
Have to jam it 'till a mornin'  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Seh you playing in a concrete style  
You playing in a resident style  
And then you jam it all the while  
Don't let it pass you by,  
You gonna wake up and wonder why  
Gone in the blues  
Go check on the news  
Go listen to political views  
Rub two dub burn ital collie  
Rub two dub burn ital collie  
New Cross was no gate-crash bomb...  
Rightful justice must be done!  
Burn two spliff and rock to the riddem  
Burn two spliff and rock to the riddem  
We don't deal with Isim Scisim  
We don't deal with Isim Scisim  
Deal with folly-dolly  
We don't deal with folly-dolly  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Rub two dub burn ital collie  
'cause you jammin' with your brethren  
Jam it 'till the morning  
Playin' in a concrete style  
Jam it all the while  
Don't let it pass you by,  
You gonna wake up and wonder why  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem  
Burn two spliff play ital riddem
