      Out of England yeah, they are on the list along with: Black Uhuru, Asward and on and on. There were and are far too many wicked bands, roots whatever for you to make that statement. Oh, and let's not forget Jahmeika! Hello.

    "I say: The people of Handsworth
    Know that one hand wash the other (so they say)
    So, let's join hands my bredren
    Make the way for our children (our children, our children)
    And their children (their children, their children)
    Ensuring that they get life's fair share of, equality...
    Doesn't justice stand for all?
    Doesn't justice stand for all?
    Doesn't justice stand for all mankind?
    We find society putting us down
    Crowning us, crowning us, crowning us, crowning us
    A place of evil, oh, oh
    Handsworth means us the black people
    Handsworth means us the black people
    We're talking now, speaking Jah Jah language!
    It's a long, long way we're coming from
    To send this message across, across
    Its been hidden, forbidden, concealed, unrevealed
    Its got to come out In the open that
    Babylon is falling!
    Babylon is falling!
    It was foolish to build it on the sand
    Handsworth shall stand, firm - like Jah rock - fighting back
    We once beggars are now choosers, no intention to be losers
    Striving forward with ambition
    And if it takes ammunition
    We rebel in Handsworth revolution
    Dread town, dread town, dread town
    Dread town, dread town, dread town
    Dread we are for a cause, deprived of many things
    Experienced phoney laws, hatred Babylon brings
    We know what you got to offer, we know what's going on
    Don't want no favours, 'cause there is still hunger
    Innocent convicted, poor wage, hard labour
    Only Babylon prospers and humble suffer
    They are brothers in south of Africa
    One black represent all, all over the world
    Can't bear it no longer, blessed with the power
    Of Jah Creator, we will get stronger
    And we will conquer
    And forward ever, and backward never
    Handsworth Revolution...!"✊
