Backward Lyrics by Kode9, Spaceape

Memories of the Future

2006

One step forward two step back
One step forward two step back
Twist the line out of all recognition
Understand this unnu have to make a decision
Mashin' up the system
With a para-flexible hearing
Fling this blasting somet'ing
'Way from my audio addiction
The truth lies somewhere between a lie and a fiction
There's no use blaming the haste we chase after
Because all is fair an equal between servant and master
Strange how things seem to remain the same
When all the while we a try fi make change
Watch how the mutants them fight and struggle
Pushing up themselves to find space inna the middle
To be seen (seen) is what it all seems to mean
When big things a gwan a no surprise
How it bleeds you dry of the things you have inna your eye
Me is man who no wan' tell anybody what fi do
But there's a abstract black hole laughing after you
Creating biological patterns more mystical than Saturn
And if you mine look sharp you have fi ask
A wha' this thing a happen?
Filling up you head with all these quotes from the scripture
To rupture a structure no buddy make this thing corrupt you
Testament I say to the spirit of the culture
Strange how things seem to remain the same
When all the while we a try fi make change
Twist the lines out of all recognition
Understand this unnu have fi make a decision
One step forward two step back
One step forward two step back
