Open Wide - Dubioza Kolektiv, Benjamin Zephaniah

Open up your mind, make some rhythm come in

Open up your brain to some reasoning

Open up your thoughts so we can connect

Open up your knowledge and intellect

Open up the speaker make it blast the sound

Open up the sky and let the bass come down

Open up your eyes take a look inside

If you want to overstand this open wide

Skirlibabababa.

Yeah

Its enough, its enough.

Listen you all

Just hear me now

Is that the thing in this World that make us fear?

Damn on this World man, damn on this time

(???) man, you can’t steal my rights

Open wide.

Open wide

Same tune is tunnin, fire burnin

Mostar is still divided like Berlin

The guns are charging there’s no time it’s urgent

Be wild hurry, the bridge still falling

The bridge still falling

Be wild hurry, the bridge still falling

The bridge still falling

The bridge still falling

Open up your mind make some rhythm come in

What for, what comes out when the people can’t get unite?

Can they even fight with no point behind?

What form your ears can’t hear

Your eyes can’t see, your mouth can’t talk

And you’re living in the fog

Respond, respond direct, react to fact

Be aware of the track which always takes us back

Discover your roots and then teach the youth

To reach the truth.

Do you need some more proof?

Ruff freedom!

Ruff Ruff Ruff freedom

Ruff freedom!

Ruff — freedom!

Open up the border, free up the land

Open up your books in the Vatican

Open up yourself to any possibility

Open up your heart and mentality

Open any door that you confront

Let me put it straight, sincere and blunt

Narrowmindedness must run and hide

If you want to overstand this open wide

(???), there’s a point that we miss:

Bosnia is still divided Jerusalem

The guns are charging, there’s no time it’s urgent

Be wild hurry, the bridge still falling

You act like a boomerang, I feel like a hooligan

You never try to listen, the impact is imminent

Adrenalin hits me hard might just stop my heart

Cos I’m the Bosnian … and I fight!

Ruff freedom!

Ruff Ruff Ruff freedom

Ruff freedom!

Ruff — freedom!
