For every opportunity we squeeze de last drop
Seeds sown inna de past an now we're reaping de crop
Yer, spreading de roots an we're no longer under-ground
Those dat turned away are now turning around
Homebeats and high-hats mightier than de sword
Version excursions an breaks from abroad
Too many secret histories dat have never been told
Reveal hidden agendas
Remove de blind fold
Examine de story before you tek de stage
Unscramble freaktalk displayed pon de front page
Frequency flashing synchronised like strobe
Can't do it alone you need to get into de collective mode
We're taking note of every brand new sound
Keeping our minds open
Cor we know we're future bound
Together we must recognise the signs of our times
Together we muse learn to read between the lines
Make your own programme
No bother become digital captive
You need some audio
So you must be active
Get into collective mode
Spirits become positive
You live de life you love
An you love the life you give
No-one is an island whether you like it or not
All inna de same boat which is about to be rocked
Warning light flashing synchronised like strobe
Can't do it alone you need to get into de collective mode
Do you spend too much time living inside your head
Worry too much about what the other man said
Need to pay heed to dis sonic reflection
Turn dis disconnection into interconnection
And get into de collective mode
Every sunday morning in front of the TV
Recording with a microphone naya zindagi
Pioneer gurdas maan
Nusrat fateh ali khan
Kept our parents alive
Gave them the will to survive
Working inna de factories
Sometimes sweeping de floor
Unsung heroines an heroes
Yes they open de door
They came a long time ago
But now it seems we've arrived
Naya zindagi naya jeevan
New way new life
Stayed an we fought an now de future's open wide
New way new life
Naya zindagi naya jeevan
New way new life
Naya zindagi naya jeevan
Tjinder pon de radio
Dis is England's new voice
Censorship for years
But now dem have no choice
Running thru de playground
We could never have known
Dat in de future
Our role models would be homegrown
And now we're walking down de street
Wid a brand new pride
A spring inna de step
Wid our heads held high
Young asian brothers an sisters
Moving forward. Side by side
Naya zindagi naya Jeevan
New way new life
Our opportunity will no longer be denied
New way new life
Naya zindagi naya Jeevan
And we're supposed to be cool
Inna de dance our riddims rule
But we knew it all along
Cos our parents made us strong
Never abandoned our culture
Just been moving it along
Technology our tradition
Innovation inna the song
Now de struggle continues
To reverse every wrong
New heroines an heroes
Inna de battle we belong
When we reach de glass ceiling
We will blow it sky high
Naya zindagi naya Jeevan
New way new life
Stayed an we fought an now de future's open wide
New way new life
Naya zindagi naya Zindagi
New way new life
Naya zindagi naya Jeevan
Hypocrites! We gonna get inside your mind
Hypocrites! You will pay for your crimes
Hypocrites! We're gonna bleed you dry
Your pockets will be empty but you wont know why
Redistribution is the name of the game
All the cash that you stashed man, we're going to give away
Lizard man beware this is the digital under class
Coming from places you've only seen from your car
Accountant, lawyer, financial advisor, PR consultant, journalist, advertiser
We know your game and you think that we're playing it
but when the bill comes though the door you're going to be paying it
Hypocrites! We gonna get inside your mind
Hypocrites! You will pay for your crimes
Hypocrites! We're gonna bleed you dry
Your pockets will be empty but you wont know why
ADF definitatly without a doubt have the skills to pay the bills
The word is community we shout it with impunity
It's so uncool, It's incendiary
No slogan, no sound bites, but a long term plan
Teaching the framework, building chains of command
So when the lizard man sticks out his tongue
We pull out our scissors and do a hit and run
This is the digital under class
Yes this is the digital underclass
ADF definitatly without a doubt have the skills to pay the bills
