slightly edited because the official instrumental (as sold digitally) is pretty fucked up at the very end - it sounds as if it was supposed to be loop-able, but eventually ends abruptly. god knows what they had in mind when they made it... anyway: enjoy the dopeness


Akala - Find No Enemy (DoubleThink/2010 &amp; single/2011)

Apparently, I'm "second generation black Caribbean"
 and "half white Scottish", whatever that means
 See, lately I feel confused with the boxes,
 cause to me all they do is breed conflict,
 It's not that I've lost touch with the reality
 of racism, sexism and nationality,
 Just to me it all seems like insanity,
 why must I rob you of your humanity
 To feel good about mine, it's all about crime
 dehumanizing is how I justify it,
 So I must keep on lying about the history of Africa,
 so I can live the with massacres
 And Repeat my mantra "Muslim terrorist" so I can sleep
 at night as bombs take flight,
 Eyes open wide but I'm blind to the sight,
 too busy chasing the perfect life
 And the working class - keep them uneducated,
 a truly educated man could never be a racist,
 Educate is to draw out what is within,
 are all not the same under the skin?
 I got a heart like yours that pumps blood and oxygen,
 and insecurities are a whole lot of them,
 I'm scared like you deep down,
 I really do care that world is not fair like you,
 But I don't even believe my own prayers like you,
 chasing career going nowhere like you,
 Lost in a fog of my own insecurity,
 I hold myself up as a image of purity,
 And I judge everybody else by the color
 of their skin or the size of their wealth,
 But it's not good for my health
 as the only one I ever really judge is myself.
 The oppressor must suffer like the oppressed
 though I pretend I'm in control of this mess
 By inflating my ego, puffing my chest,
 see our weakness and I need to show strength for
 What we think strong is cause if we're honest,
 true strength is the strength to be honest
 And if I'm honest, I am just tired.
 If I'm honest, I am just tired,
 Tired of everyday filling up my car and
 knowing that I'm paying for the bombs in Iraq,
 Tired of pretending like it don't hurt my heart,
 of wanting change but not knowing where to start.
 Tired of listening to all the conditioning
 and all the forms they got me filling in.
 Next time you see what you think is a thug and despise him,
 please know I was just like him,
 Cause I was like eight the first time I saw crack,
 same time I first smoked weed, choking on blowbacks,
 First time I saw knives penetrate flesh,
 it was meat cleavers to the back of the head,
 As I grew and teenage years passed,
 many more knives pierced and the shots blast,
 And I ain't saying I had the worst upbringing,
 but there a million young men just like me in prison.
 We complain about racism and elevate clowns
 with their trousers down swinging their dicks round,
 Maybe that is not quite literal,
 but everything they do is just as stereotypical.
 To my real fans:
 I feel your pain, and I get the messages - but don't complain,
 That we ain't got more fame for playing our part,
 They can keep the charts, all I want is your hearts,
 They can keep the charts, all I want is your hearts,
 They can keep the charts, all I want is your hearts,
 Call it "black radio"? Don't make laugh,
 so is black music all about tits and arse?
 You don't represent nothing, you're just pretending,
 when was the last time you ever played Hendrix?
 Or Miles Davis, or John Coltrane, or Ella Fitzgerald, or Billie Holliday?
 We can call it "urban", to me that's cool,
 if "urban" means "street" that includes Jazz too,
 And Rock for that matter, go ask Mick Jagger or
 Jimmy Page what they were listening to?
 The Blues! Not discrediting, love Zeppelin too,
 just giving credit where credit is due.
 That blood-soaked word rappers still use,
 all it really show is we still self-abuse,
 That was the word that was used to kill
 Kelso Cochrane and Emmett Till.
 That was the word that the conscience eased,
 and made people pleased to hung you from trees,
 That was the word that let the rips crack,
 no matter what you say, you can't take it back.
 And I can say they're black, so I feel their pain easier -
 but 1915, look at Armenia,
 Is the whole world this human stupidity,
 that we choke ourselves to death, quite literally?
 And I can talk, with my comfortable mouth,
 with my comfortable clothes, and my comfortable house,
 The tables will turn, we can but stall them,
 every empire on this earth has fallen,
 So unless we can find another way,
 maybe not today but it will come one day,
 And it may sound like I'm bitter, but in fact,
 truth be told, I am quite the opposite,
 I wake everyday and am overwhelmed,
 just to be alive and be like no one else
 And the sheer weight of the thought of space
 is enough to keep my little ego in place
 All that we chase and try to replace,
 all along it was right in our face,
 The only way we can ever change anything's
 to look in the mirror and to find no enemy,
 The only way we can ever change anything,
 look in the mirror and to find no enemy

Megan McCauley - Break You (Reconstructed)

Loverboy cover; this should be the only proper copy on ther interwebs - all other copies you'll find either lack intro or the outro, and they all have a skip/missing ~1 second of the song halfway through the track.

enjoy

Saigon, dead prez, Immortal Technique - Impeach The President 2006

this came via Dante Ross (who later produced the album version) and is unfinished. this original version was produced by Fredwreck and was supposed to appear on Tray Deee's album. it is much different from what was later released on "White Trash Beautiful" - it has an intro cut from the album version, different drums and electric instead of acoustic guitar; it only contains hook vocals, the verses are missing.
