|
I grab the mic
|
To commence with the mic check
|
Supply rhymes, man you've never heard yet
|
You never thought an Asian could do this
|
Well you're wrong
|
Wrong again
|
Hardcore!
|
That's what I wanna be
|
All over the white world
|
Yes they'll remember me
|
Don't look at me as an Innocent bystander
|
Because I'll scare you after dark ...
|
|
Master D Adlib
|
|
Paki bashing
|
That's what I call fucking racism
|
And you can tell I'm a fucking Paki lover
|
Day to day
|
Night to night
|
Persecution with a capital P
|
Racism with a capital R
|
Man I've seen your scar
|
I've seen your scar
|
You expect me to sympathise
|
The hell no!
|
You don't know the price that we're paying
|
|
Master D Adlib
|
|
What you see is no mirage
|
Asian guys and girls comin large
|
Straight from the East
|
Tough!
|
And coming like a beast
|
Guys who are very keen and showing ability
|
Tranquility, we have the audacity
|
Speaking out
|
'Cos there's no doubt about that
|
|
Another critical rhyne Make you wanna look
|
Observe it
|
It's like a comic book
|
Coming from the place
|
with the capital B
|
I'll let you guess-
|
No let me tell you:
|
The B and the A and the N and the G and the L and the A
|
with a word called Desh
|
Sums up the country The word and the place called Bangladesh
|
So you never contest
|
Yes you thought I couldn't do it
|
I'm not a Black man
|
This time it's an Asian
|
Some fear the white man
|
Some fear the Ku Klux Klan
|
But they ain't up to no good
|
Brother brother, sister sister
|
Yes if your miss or if your mister
|
Listen to this rap
|
It's Asian guys coming correct
|
|
Way back in the sixties
|
Our fathers, our mothers
|
They suffered a lot for us
|
They couldn't say much
|
They couldn't do much
|
'cos of the fear of getting beat up
|
But now it's the nineties
|
We're not babies no more
|
You know the score that we live for
|
|
Our fathers, our mothers
|
They brought us up to be tough
|
We don't stand for any bullshit
|
We don't give a damn
|
Even if you're superman
|
Strong culture is what you see in our eyes
|
Not just tough guys.
