Asian Dub Foundation

TH9

The police a chase we

The beast can't catch me

When I see his big stick

him deal me a lick

Tower Hamlets Nine have to go free

Not even a fine

for the Tower Hamlets Nine

Youth Connection

Stop this infection

Defenfing defending defending the community

Some fascists in Brick Lane looking for a fight

Police doing nothing:

One rule for Black

One rule for White

ADF, we're about to strike

Time is getting short

Elections in May

Give the fascist man a gunshot

That's the only way

There are many different languages spoken in this land

But only one language that the fascist understand

Why don't you

Kick the fuckers in the head

Kick the fuckers in the head

Why don't you?

Master D Adlib

"Every institution in this city, right

is prejudiced against us

There's no accountability

There's no servant of the Police Force

Or his DI or whatever

Who is accountable for his attitudes"

Our parents had to sit tight

Weren't allowed to fight back

physically

just a mental strain

Restraint!

Now I think I've found a remedy to this recurring pain

Not passive but resistant

Your assumptions were wrong:

Like coffee without milk

Too black to strong

For too many years man you've had your fun

Now it's time

Now it's time

For us to hit and run

'Cos we're second generation

but we're not second class

Now the wrath of the Asian will hit you like a blast

Now the wrath of the Asian will hit you like a blast

In this time there is no justice or peace

In this time there is no trust in the police

Quddus Ali saw no justice or peace

Altab Ali saw no justice or peace

Stephen Lawrence saw no justice or peace

Too many people still waiting for release
