The Message(EnLefko Unplugged)

The Bet - Who'll Pay Reparations(Gil Scott Heron)

You needed the feelin
more than our screaming
 
you take it and maake it
begin not to shake it
 
the times are a changin
but you re chasing your tail
 
those lies won't inspire you
and to the port they'll bind you
 
can you see the future
of where we're heading to
don't you believe it too
are you just passing through
maybe it's true
 
we knew we were part of 
this scam on ourselves
 
and now we re just blaming
the hatred inflaming
 
yes
 
i want you to take it 
tare it down
 
and wont  you lick it 
lick the bones of it
 
just to end it
and let it out
let it out
 
 
or won't you put your rage aside
or will you bite me in the eye
or will you tear my guts outside
or will you rape me and leave me die
 
 
everybody say:
 
my anus is bleeding!

The Message

How do I feel this time of night
long are the days
I sleep inside
and when I wake by a distant light
oh how I crave for peace to find,
for peace to find.
 
Sometimes I feel the need to hide
my hours entwine and roost inside
and to sustain this kind of power
I have stop,and remain silent
and remain silent...
 
But can you hear them when they say"
"never let them get away
educate the masses
tie them to their laces"
you should meet your chances man
 
Can you listen when I say
never let this get away
we should meet our chances
let the consequences
let them consequences stream
 
And by the light of day
wipe that shame away
elevate our chances
meet them through our changeling
stream our scent to heavens
 
Elevate our chances
meet them through our changeling
be the consequences
 
You should get this message man
never ever  let it down
You should pass it all around the world
feed it with your inner sound
 
Come on and get up on your feet again
End the way you live in fear man
Fight the forces that oppress you man
Get up from your couch man
 
And then you ll feel , the light inside
widden your arms,and let it shine
And if you fall,you ll climb right back
for to be down is to get up
 
 
So should we listen when they say
cause they will try to make us stay
to educate the masses
to tie us to our laces
to fail
our trail for life
 
To feed our trend towards inertia
their screens that constaltly alert ya
the "friends in higher places"
just lower down our chances
and keep us in our stances
 
And what about elections
and all of their sincere confessions
their headlights and their headlines?
would they define our own lifelines?
 
Enough is enough,we owe to wake up
Enough is enough,we have to wake up

The Bet - The Message

Dont you know you're born
and you ve got no home
don't you know you ve got no place to go
 
man listen when i say,
there are people on the streets,
having needs,to eat and to sleep
 
dont you know you're born
and you ve got no home
don't you know you ve got no place to go
 
Man listen when I say,
you won't see me on the news,
on no tv screen,when I scream 
at night..
 
dont you know you're born
and you ve got no home
don't you know you ve got no place to go
 
when..
 
I'll  sleeping tight,
cause i'll be sleeping out,
I'll be drifting in the streets tonight
won't somebody please
come and rescue me
I'll be sleeping in the streets tonight lord,
 
my skin is peeling of,
my rags can't keep me warm,
and god bless the press
for keeping off the cold,
as my memories are my companion,
maybe things will change,
as I fall into this light,
I fall off this bench
down,
and I wake..
 
dont you know you're born
and you ve got no home
don't you?

The Bet - The Message (NTEIBINT Remix)

The Bet were brought together in July 2010. Using their distinctive sound as a weapon of choice, they create music that combines rhythms and melodies by Motown Soul/R n B together with the sound textures of Blues-Rock and Psychedelia from the early 70’s. 

The name of the genre: Power Soul.

Since November 2010, the Bet made various appearances in live stages in Athens, capturing the best out of the music lover’s impressions.

 In January 2011 they got into the studio and recorded a live sample of their work, to capture the vividness, power and dynamic of their live appearances. The outcome was an unreleased recording including the very successful version of Gil Scott Heron’s “Who’ll pay reparations” which gained airplay on the #1 radio station in Greece “En Lefko” and various radio stations all over Greece. 

The Bet continued through 2011 with their live performances, including their first television appearance on the popular National TV program “Esctv”. 

From early 2012 they are preparing their first studio album, following the release of their first EP “In Motion” on Restless Wind [GR] (24th July, 2012).  The album will be produced in the studio by NTEIBINT who recently released an EP on Bang Gang 12’’ [AU] and on the cutting edge record label Kitsuné [FR].
