The time is now and it's time that we walk ya
Across a tightrope called public disorder
On a platform riling all the supporters
Away from the norm it's called public disorder
Make time now before time gets harder
And then some times call for public disorder
Do what you're told don't be a martyr
They're In fear of the horror of public disorder
While they're re implementing penalties
And fending off the enemies
I'm feeding off the energy
And Feelin like there's ten of me
Back to the beat for ferapy
Back to the place it's tekkin me
Cause inside its mekin me
tackle all the jeopardy
Take it in your hands
Free up your plans
Time to take a stand
Don’t appease them
Walk a different path to what's already chartered
Walk with your armour towards the public disorder
On a platform riling all the supporters
And Away from the norm is called the public disorder
Make time now before time gets harder
And then some times call for public disorder
There might be martyrdom there might be a call for
A walk in to the Unknown public disorder

public disorder,
inter-public discourse dictates what's considered important
what's bad form bad social decorum
to the extent that it requires enforcement
the ones who make the laws are not the ones who enforce em
cant put your hands out to stop yourself from falling
if the public order act was brought to a public forum
the public wouldn't like it and they'd have a fucking problem
you can expose boobs to sell booze but you if you wanna use your own breasts to feed your baby
people then adopt puritanical views want you to show less it's contrary and crazy
someone else decided that my life is a crisis
everything is fine but I still see the sirens
got too excited the uninvited didn't like it
how can i incite a riot in private
banging a hammer in a field to feel good for fulfillment
Areopagitica by john milton
perpetual oppression of men women and children
couldn't care if they killed them
Progress doesn't come quietly
In a progressive society
The progressive shouldn't be a dying breed
In a progressive society
tellin me what terror is but not what terror isnt
cant make that decision cant change a definition
listen to great britain and it's racism
the way that hate has risen is a fucking hate mission
you might be forgiven for thinking villain isn't
the villain but the victim and did everything they didn't
call em out when you're rich and they'll think that you're a hypocrite
call em out when you're poor and they'll think you're on some bitter shit
Instead of demonising those that are in the dole queue
concentrate on questioning attempts to control you
people with the media at immediate disposal
Invoke fear so that you do what you're told to
Pit The poor against the poor
With their poverty porn
As if theyre an Orwellian Jackie treehorn
The Bourgeoisie hasn't been reborn
They've just transformed with new tactics to enforce
Progress doesn't come quietly
In a progressive society
The progressive shouldn't be a dying breed
In a progressive society

Step into the dojo it's going to get nasty you can't out class me cos I'm too crafty I know you know a dojo master cos thats me faster band super luminosity abstractly you haven't got a patch on me name like an Apache you're just a Patsy and you can't surpass me it's going to get gruesome it's going to get Gastly step into the dojo not the system that traps me me
Step into the Dojo it’s gonna get nasty
Step into the Dojo it’s gonna get nasty
1.5 metric tons exactly that's how much stress I have to get to grasp me step into the dojo first thirdly and lastly so that we can assess and relax satisfactorily it's the way it has to be be do what comes naturally it's never something that's manufactured in a factory might say it's blasphemy part of a rich tapestry mathematical accuracy actually that's the key
Step into the Dojo it’s gonna get nasty
People see an ego getting fatter trying too much to be bigger, betterm, badder, concentrate on the things that matter
Stay humble if you stumble, not like a penguin, in a jungle, hunters hunt you sometimes stun you in good stead, steady that stumble
Step into the Dojo it’s gonna get nasty
Good bits, bad bits and the rest stay on your train of gravy
Day after day don’t fret, those knocks can make you hazy
What’s it gonna be, is it gonna be, will it be good things, that you perceive
Train your brain and help yourself, remember that we’re all crazy, Step into the Dojo it’s gonna get nasty!
I don't read manuals I read Beano Annuals I eat seeds and granules and my name is not Samuel I'm Daniel in the lions den with thoughts and understand them well all real flavour no Canderel dojo is an umbrella term that's some never learn Nelson Mandela being at the end of his tether turned and negative into a positive when the composites deposited on you your prerogative has got to be be what have I got to give

Let’s take a headcount, 2 in to 1 out
One person dismounts
2 more sprout, 2 in 1 out
Humanity is transient throughout history
Claim you’re not a foreigner from over the sea
Well why not have a look at your family tree
How can anyone own common ground a country
The people with the wealth are in control of the keys
They tell you have to think with newspapers and TVs
Living in a fraction of time for a new colony
Need to find safe places for all of the babies
So let’s take a headcount
2 in to 1 out
One person dismounts
2 more sprout, 2 in 1 out
it's not about being full it's about being sustainable
i come from a land of plenty, others come from a land that's empty
i've got all sorts of cheaply sourced resources there to tempt me
and i know to treat a person as if they're worthless isn't friendly
there's enough of stuff for all of us so i have no room for envy
any us and them mentality just shunt be in this century
i have no sense of entitlement day one from the port of entry
Dont get indoctrinated by what's on the documentary
Let’s take a headcount
There’s 2 in to 1 out
When one person dismounts
2 more sprout, 2 in 1 out

Psychological causes of mental health disorders
Social causes of mental health disorders
Biological causes of mental disorders
Nobody is Disorderless it could happen to all of us
Increased exposure to adverse life effects
History of being abused and discriminated against
Poor coping mechanisms and learned helplessness
Lower socioeconomic group it never ends
Inner reaches, external feature out form the mind behind
Push out the way then back again could it be hiding around the corner
A culture of displaced gratification is more likely to find mental health disorders.
Psychological causes of mental health disorders
Social causes of mental health disorders
Biological causes of mental disorders
Nobody is disorderless it could happen to all of us
disease, toxins, genetics and prenatal damages
injurys and brain defects and chemical imbalances
social expectations and poorly laid care packages
all sorts that can contribute and all sorts of challenges
Refuse to think and know not what to see rather be disinclined
Happier in a place that's well known, ignorant good thought hoarder
Health is free, most people are kind and we can all be inclined to mental health disorders
It's hard to be honest when the disorder is chronic
It's hard to paint a picture with the social stigma
450 million people world-wide have a mental health problem.
Nearly nine out of ten of those people say that stigma and discrimination have a negative effect on their lives.

With the NHS we never had that stress we never had to second guess whether we can mend our human flesh and in that aspect we're blessed but we're going to have to fight to protect because if we don't fight we don't get so I'm all for strikes and protests so it isn't bought by corporate execs because we ain't that poor they should give it a rest if there's money for war then there's money for Beds can't trust our government to show it respect push the philosophy they're going against systematic destruction volcanic eruption these Tory cuts call it massive corruption undercut the coverage muffling all the suffering the the public are love Sick the government isn't loving it I fear their theatre play the whole operation is Shady I don't want to see the day when I feel the pain should never need to pay to deliver a baby got love for the staff that are putting in the work that are doing it daily Love Sick with a passion but the worry it pains me don't discredit it don't try and dilute it when Aneurin Bevan laid down that blueprint he wouldn't want us worrying whether we would lose it so why now does it look like it's wounded it's not the sort of thing that can afford to go corporate nor can anyone normal afford the insurance with privatisation we have lost our patience there's plenty of paper to pay doctors wages no one is invincible all will need the needle so work under the principle that all the ill are equal whether you're rich or poor you will be cared for steadfast they'll infect that it'll be air-born when the NHS staff get axed yes that's a system that's sick that's it and with that you'll see a collapse of the help nurses give to the National Health Service in a multinational cartel purchase that day is when I'm national health worsens with two broken legs trying to walk it off drug companies pay tax in this country they say that the First Cut is the Deepest but it's whichever cut leaves us at our weakest they cut so much can’t cover up bleeding and they can keep on cutting until the heart stops beating
National Health Service shouldn’t be sold
We have to make sure it stays publicly owned

Do you know what's going on? I know you don't I know you're wrong
because it's impossible the paragon of deception
see the images apparent in the projections
the mirror for the world is giving false reflections
I know it's not the apocalypse and i know it's not the opposite
all that's broadcast is negative and nothing positive
no balance it's bollocks it's all apples no oranges
should be no forbidden fruit should never be a hidden truth
watching the news we're fear consumers
consuming fear feeling like the news consumes us
new and exclusive what they do is exclude us
from knowing the full view so the fear it fuels us
to scorn each other and cause more to suffer
shouldn't come to fisticuffs can’t trust a pusher
me i try and rise above it know where my bread's buttered
so i’m not a brainwashed hate filled motherfucker
Suddenly afraid to sleep
I dream of something in their speech
Hatred streaming the disease
You know bad news
Has always sold better
Has always sold better
Feels like I’m suddenly afraid to sleep
I dream of something in their speech
The hatred streaming in HD
Don’t you know bad news has always sold better, better than good

Straight from the playground no
pound impound call that the bad man sound
You're still throwing balls around cause your balls haven't dropped down
No guns no knives no bats only the full facts so you better pull back
You Couldn't keep off the grass
So you want to ask yourself what's the crack
Designer clothes, designer cars all the bling and the fake respect
who's getting ripped off then (huh) you can't even make the bed
There’s Tons of twats all under masks
All comin at you like thunder cats
Down for the last, no town gets past, re-nound for gas, pounds getting smashed
Direct threat, to a blinder sect, your minders deflect grime and sess
Inspect further, break neck stormer, best informers know no borders
Think about it now what's for the rest, take a step down to reflect.
Got the same words drop em louder, together what'll have more effect, won't get lost to the dialect
Like tryina parallel park with a big van
You're taking hits I'm in charge I'm a big man
Take them apart like a shark in a fishtank
Anyone who ever had a heart they're a tin man
China shop bull comin through were a sick band
Aim for the crown like a roundhouse kick can
Keep it on beat with the 44 kick stand
Why you keep falling to the floor for quicksand
watching the flood rise under the floodlights
Cant kill us off cause there sure not suge knight
Int what it is and int what it looks like
You'll go blind stop looking at the sunlight
Im cycling past traffic on a push bike
I'm ufc you compete in a pub fight
The way youre doing what you it int done right
So I ask why would you try be the tough guy
Why does it matter so much to a minor for
Little bull red mist more like a minataur
You int hard you int iron or iron ore what lying for
I'm the sword attached to the belt what Orion wore

Enlighten, get livened
Enlighten, get livened
Enlighten, see the people
Deep down, are still the same
Enlighten, you see they're see through
Broken, transparent pane
Enlighten, you see the people
On top, are just the same
They're all the same
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, no gods no masters
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, we're all the same
Seek what you find
Push the idols aside
Institutions barriers didn’t come from the carriers of the ideas that are there for us
Lighten, get livened
Englighten, get livened
Enlighten, storm the steeples
High up, no need for shame
Eyes up, see what's deceitful
High up, proclaim your name
Enlighten, you see their see through
High up, no need for shame
No need for shame
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, no gods no masters
Insight, no gods no masters
Strive to proclaim your name
Seek what you find
Push the idols aside
Institutions barriers didn’t come from the carriers of the ideas that are there for us
They say the proof is in the pudding but who put it in the uh
The preacher is the pusher so who's doing all the pulling
They're making me think I'm bad and telling me that I shouldn't
Be lovin what I'm lovin I don't wanna be suckered in
Theological discussion shouldn't be a cause to govern
Other people's thoughts and put em down demean em all a sudden
be a force for something good not reenforce and toughen
Don't wanna be seeing ruptures deep like prehistoric covens
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, no gods no masters
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, were all the same
Insight, no gods no masters
Foresight, no gods no masters
Insight, no gods no masters
Enlighten, no god
Deep down, no god
Enlighten, no god
Broken, no god
Enlighten, no god
On top, no god
No god's no masters

YEEEES! YEEEES! Twenty years later than I would have liked, but hells yes! I stumbled upon "No manners in Ireland" yesterday, cueing the easiest binge buy in a while. This is a nice blend of skillful instrumentalism, great lead voice and good tunes. The old Toasters / Madness / Bosstones fan in me is bouncing off the ceiling again. Thank you for that. You seem to be gathering steam as well. Here's to a long run!
