FREEDOM FIGHTERS

I was born from a lot of different worlds, 
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places
I was born from a lot of different worlds
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places.

black slaves that were mixed with indian natives
and were raped by the white race to create this
shock wave of conquering colononization 
so that makes me a mix of so many nations
this story takes place in 1973
when my parents became political refugees
they wanted peace to be shared so equally
but instead they got imprisoned for their beliefs
assasinations were everyday occurences
yet they managed to conceive life in the middle of this
some chose to ignore some chose to raise fists
dictator ships vs political activists
my father he got executed 
and he still carries the bullets 
in his body to prove it
my mother she got persecuted
and i'm alive to say....freedom figthting.. it's never useless!!!

I was born from a lot of different worlds, 
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places
I was born from a lot of different worlds
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places

And you wonder what the moral of the story is
you can not complain if you dont change to squash the passivness
it's important we dont ignore the history
for the sake of the future generations that will come to be
this might be about the people who raised me
but believe when i say this is one story of so many
too many people be feeding from all the lies
the truth of the matter is they be looking through their tinted eyes
freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up
freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up

I was born from a lot of different worlds, 
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places
I was born from a lot of different worlds
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places

May i, may i take it back to the day of my birth
the truth is i almost didn't make it
a clenched fist, that is what came out first
oh shit you should've seen my parents faces
as freedom fighters they embraced the child they created
so far away from their homeland but they had made it
they were alive, the death they had just escaped
so yes they smiled so the pain would get replaced with LOVE
time to get replaced with love
time to get replaced with love
time to get replaced with love
LOVE
some peoples pockets are filled with cash
some peoples pockets are filled with trash
the fact is you never know how long it will last
so try to fill your heart instead....and do it fast

I was born from a lot of different worlds
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places
I was born from a lot of different worlds
I was born from a lot of different places
so i embrace the earth what it's worth
cause i was born from a lot of different places

i tell stories from back then
fast forward to twothousandandseven
how much has really changed?
time to look around cause injustice remains the same
My friend, dont you think it's time that it ends?
too much blood has been spilled
too many brothas and sistas have been killed

freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up
freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up
freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up
freedom fighters
put your lighters up
the struggle will continue
but we wont give up

My version of "My world is empty without you" by The Supremes .

Thx for sharing 

Cheers 

The Supremes - My World Is Empty Without You (P.e.ø Remix)

Man: “Slow it up, Lord have mercy…”
Woman: “Can’t just say words… listen to the message.”
Both: “We’ve been broken, but the fight’s not over.”

Verse 1 (Man – scars & battle)

“Every scar, every broken bone,
Every battle I’ve stood in alone.
Even my pain shines radiant on me,
Crying to the Lord, one more time, set me free.”

Verse 2 (Woman – wounds & hope)

“I’ve been unbroken, I’ve been dismayed,
But I’ve seen Your power in the battles I’ve faced.
So many nights I was drowning in tears,
But I know You’ve held me through all these years.”

Chorus (Both – warrior call)

Both:
“Why me, Lord? Why the soldier?
Why the scars across our shoulders?
Father God, send out the message tonight—
Calling every warrior, rise up, join the fight.”

Verse 3 (Man – confession)

“I thought I was stronger, but I fell down low,
Cried out to heaven, let Your mercy show.
Father, You’ve heard me through every cry,
Lift me again, Lord, don’t pass me by.”

Verse 4 (Woman – encouragement)

“I see the fire still burning inside,
Even in pain, Your glory won’t hide.
We’re not forsaken, we’re not undone,
Through every battle, the victory’s won.”

Bridge (Call to others – spoken/sung)

Man: “Hey everyone, Father God in my voice—”
Woman: “If you hear these words, you still have a choice.”
Both:
“Walk away from the pain, leave it behind,
He’s calling your soul, your heart, your mind.”

Final Chorus (Both – victory cry, powerful)

“God is calling you—take up, rise, and know,
Every battle scar is a sign you’ll grow.
We’ve been broken, but together we stand,
Warriors of heaven, in the palm of His hand.”

Warriors Call

Soundway return once more to the Caribbean and are proud to present ‘Ifetayo’ by Black Truth Rhythm Band originally released in 1976. Led by the charismatic Oluko Imo, ‘Ifetayo’ was the only release from the Afro-centric, Trinidadian band and is re-issued here for the first time on CD, vinyl and digital. Whereas most of their peers at the time were looking to the funk of the USA & James Brown for inspiration, Black Truth Rhythm Band looked to Africa, fusing rhythms from Africa & the West Indies with elements of jazz, funk, calypso and soul.

From an early stage in their career it was the African influence that set Black Truth Rhythm Band apart from other West Indian bands. Formed in 1971, the group looked further a field than the USA for their influences, more specifically to Africa, even going as far as giving themselves African names and dressing in African clothes. At the time finding African records in the West Indies was particularly difficult, making the bands choice of influences even more rare.

In 1975 Imo took his musicians into the studio to record the album ‘Ifetayo’. Imo played bass, kalimba, conga, flute and percussion as well as lead vocals.  The album was released the following year in 1976 and despite being released in the US, remained an underground, albeit unique and forward thinking record that has remained out of print for years now.

‘Ifetayo’ was to be the only release from Black Truth Rhythm Band but Imo continued his music and love of African rhythms, going onto record with Fela Kuti in 1988 and later on perform with members of Fela’s Egypt 80 band.

All formats comes with a non-album bonus track. The vinyl edition comes with bonus 7″

Smoke Gets In...

This is the 2nd track of my album ƒin. 
It was half produced half in Barcelona and half in Pional's studio in Madrid. We made three sessions of recordings during 2011 and in fact it's the track that took most time to finish in the album. Pional played some keys too and some percussions, he's the best :)
