I was on the Wrong Side of History.
The Captain said we’ll set sail for the Coast of Africa,
“Boys we’re off to make our Fortune!
The Natives here won’t lend a hand,
So we’ll bring the Bosses
Ones they can Command.”
Along the Frontiers, They are bound to Fail.
Along the Banks we hear the Women Wail.
But we will not put out the Fires of Industry.
The Cost is worth the Crime,
We can’t afford to let them Be.
Fifty Nights,
And still no End in Sight;
No Common Horrors or Cruelty
In the Slavers’ Trade.
The Storm was Just Retribution,
for the Business of the Colonies.
The Captives took the ship,
And killed Us begging on our Knees…
Along the Frontiers, They are bound to Fail.
Along the Banks we hear the Women Wail,
But we will not put out the Fires of Industry.
The Cost is worth the Crime,
We can’t afford to let them Free.
Go Joshua! Go Peace & Rhythm! It was lovely to have Miracles & Criminals released. It was marvelous to hear and see it growing into Locobeach. But to see and hear it continuing is just amazing. This mixture of cumbia with so many other influences is fantastic. And I hope it keeps coming because it's so great. cybey
