Chorus: They poisoned every river, every lake, And building flats on every mountain.. Now the people moving out the flats 'cos all the trouble and shouting And all the stabbing and shooting Oh, people can we try a new thing? Because the devil is recruiting And It's our turn to stand firm And so it came to be, that the fallen generation of the post-code genocide, went down in history as another victory for the dark side. Pretending to be free Standing underneath the camera tree in Hackney. Get rich, or try dying Again and again and again and again Is this to be our legacy? Their dark prophecy We don't need to fulfil it Underneath the camera tree They watch me I watch them Chorus And so it came to pass That the fallen and the perpetrators buck up on the other side Where peace and love shall last for all time And there they saw the tricks Exploitation from the slave ships up until the hood clicks Super fly I got mine If you die I don't mind Is this to be our legacy? Their fake prophecy We don't need to fulfil it Underneath the camera tree They watch me I watch them Chorus

Thieves 04:24
I won't blindly follow the masses I'll be up the front when there's clashes with fascists I would promise to never buy plastic, but it's everywhere Please don't tell me I should be voting And who to vote for, whatever they stand for I don't see none of them trying to stop war, and it's everywhere. Look, the hat-stand's gone But if the cap fits pick it up put it on Oh no not you again Vampire crew again Thieves and murders Chorus: Murderer, liars, thieves and murders Murderers, liars, thieves and murders Divide rule, a typical tactic Everything was red gold and green Then look what the crack did Who's bringing the smack in? I'm telling you one thing.. They don't care about you! I pledge allegiance to Rastafari Because Jah is the most high Jah protect and guide I With Jah Jah by my side The light and the dark side Jah won't leave without you Look, the hat-stands gone But if the cap fits pick it up put it on a gain Oh no not you again Vampire crew again Thieves and murderers Chorus

What you're putting on your bong's too strong rude boy Don't touch coke, don't touch crack If you've touched the crack already, I beg you put it back It's a government plan and we can't fall for that. Watch the drama Was anybody listening when natty chanted Satta Masa Gana? Did you chant three psalms, or did you ring the alarm? Don't touch coke, don't touch crack If you've touched the crack already, I beg you put it back It's a government plan and we can't fall for that. Do not touch coke, don't touch crack If you've touched the crack already, I beg you put it back It's a government plan and we can't fall for that. Watch the drama Ain't anybody noticed how the youth these days are talking to their mothers and their fathers? It's all wrong rudeboy!. Don't touch coke, don't touch crack If you've touched the crack already, I beg you put it back It's a government plan and we can't fall for that. Watch the drama There's gonna be a war between the rich and poor, so bring your body armour And I'll meet you on the corner - stand firm rudeboy Don't bring coke, don't bring crack If you bring the crack to battle, then I'll have to send you back It's a government plan and we can't fall for that

(To live in love and inity) Work for money Work hard for money Work days for money Work nights for money Got to fight for money It's not right for money All wrong for money It's long for money Head gone for money Hat gone for money Jacket gone for money Trousers gone for money Shirt gone for money Shoes gone for money Socks gone for money Wife, house, two kids and dogs gone for money It's on for money Tick crack for money Sell crack for money Make back my money Buy smack for money Sell that for money Man stole my money Head bus' for money Skull crack for money Gun shot for money In a world where money makes the word go round Chorus Kill for money Steal for money Kill birds, bees and burn big trees down for money Brain wash for money Kill Tosh for money Push for money Shove for money Prayers to the most high up above for money For love nor money Invade for money Slave trade for money AK47 and live grenades for money War for money What for, for money 10 pound draws for money Scores for money Stab for money Land grab for money Double standards food trading standards, for money E-Numbers for money Live for money Die for money Bribe for money Lie for money In a world where money makes the word go round Chorus

Time Ago 04:14
Time ago Time ago You should have listened when the roots-man warned you time ago You should have listened when the roots-man warned you You should have listened, but you never listened Now look at our children, they kill other children And look at the elders still knocking back pills then What happened to mama? Your mama gone missing... And dads in the kitchen, cracking the pipe and piping the crack an' ting One time ago the brothers bounced when they walked Now they spit and curse when they talk You're pulling down bridges You never try build them Look at our children Look at the children Time ago Time ago Time ago You should have listened when the roots-man told you time ago You should have listened when the roots-man warned them You should have listened, but you never listened Now how many crack-pipes to mash up a nation? And after the crack-pipes, the gentrification Now we got sniffer dogs waiting outside the station Sniffing out dreadlocks for repatriation Try to disgrace them Threaten to mace them Feel out of place then? You should have listened when the roots-man told you time ago Africa we want to go Africa we want to go Africa we want to go Time ago Time ago Time ago Africa we want to go Listen, listen Guns and ammunition All the rude-boys and the soldiers fall into position Guns bark, like old dogs inna the park Babylon raid and arrest after dark.. You should have listened

Two Crays 03:50
Two Crays (Paul and Mary) Chorus: Two Crays, we come with original sounds Two Crays, crowd of people get down We don't come from Kingston twelve But we're inspired by their stories See we've had our hard times as well I seen the death, aint seen no glory 6 hungry mouths, one loaf of bread 6 in the bed and the little one said If you don't know me now, you will do I'm that shooting star from Star Lane Chorus Dry bread without no butter Or if it's butter, there aint no bread If you don't have no bread or butter You better just swallow your pride instead Hard times, humble people Humble people still got to eat Unpaid fines, aint nothing legal Mister DJ drop that needle People get up out of your seats Chorus

Non Violent 03:52
We're non violent, yet you're coming with your batons and sirens Non violent, it's a war between the rebels and tyrants Ain't gonna riot for no damn Nike boots Ain't gonna loot for no Puma tracksuit I ain't gonna riot and loot Because Babylon don't have no fruits Serve I the justice, give I the truth And I'll pass that truth on to Jah Jah youth You see, there ain't no fruits in Babylon Ain't no fruits in a wicked land.. We're non violent, yet your coming with your batons and sirens Non violent, it's a war between the rebels and tyrants, tyrants Rebels and tyrants, tyrants Rebels and tyrants Bullies them, bullies them never prosper In the long run, we have to answer to Jah Bullies them, bullies they never prosper Who say that Gaddy 'pon the echo chamber The hands of the wicked, drenched in blood But the soul of the righteous man, is in the hands of the almighty one There no vexation will touch them There no vexation will worry them We're non violent

Briskly through I'm passing Squad car sirens blasting children from deep dreams again Breach of peace in Turnpike Lane Briskly through keep walking Pavement artists chalking Squad car wailing in again Pavement artists pray for rain I've seen rebel strongholds fall and rise again as shopping malls You cry Hoxton, and I'll cry Brixton Tears river going to carry us all down the line Wonders and signs Crime scene tape and brave goodbyes Briskly through no stopping Homeless window shopping Upturned cold hands hold out for change to come and sweep them down the drains Quickly one last look Pray for the lives it took Hear laughing echoes and cries of pain Turn around and don't look back again I've seen rebel strongholds fall and rise again as shopping malls You cry Harlesden mate, I'll cry for Notting Hill gate And tears river going to carry us all down the line Wonders and signs Crime scene tape and brave goodbyes Leave don't wait man Why you want to wait around and watch Brixton fall again?

Mighty Jah I wonder how I managed to exist without The knowledge of your parenthood, and your loving care Now I am your son, I am adopted in your family And I will never be alone because mighty Jah you're there beside me I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises for ever more I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises for ever more Mighty Jah I wonder how I managed to exist without The knowledge of your parenthood, and your loving care Now I am your son, I am adopted in your family And I will never be alone because mighty Jah you're there beside me I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises I will sing Jah praises for ever more

Where I Am 03:37
Take my blue skies from me The lies of history To be or not to be I'll jam where I am, where I am In post-code rhapsodies The same old enemy And when the lights go out across the big old city I'll Jam where I am, where I am Ten floors up and the lift never works for me Half way up, I realise I forgot my key And when I reach to the top and the front door's locked I'll stand and jam where I am, where I am Where I am Where I am Where I am Yeah, I'll stand and jam where I am Take my blue skies from me The lies of history To be or not to be I'll jam where I am, where I am

about

Legacy Outernational are a UK based reggae rock band with a distinctive crossover sound inspired by reggae's golden era and fashioned in the deeper shadows of London's concrete jungle. 

Their debut album 'Outsanity' heralds an overdue return to conscious reggae & rock vibes in Britain. This studio based album is an observation of the past, present and future rolled into the now. The songs tell the stories...

"There are youths out there today who don't even know that real music once existed." -  Reggae Gad. 

Multi-instrumentalist Craig Shaw, also of The Excellos, established the Purple Patch studio and record label in Bristol after witnessing first-hand the systematic gentrification of London's once thriving music scene. 

"Tin Pan Alley will be next, mark my words."  - Craig Shaw

Craig's spiralling guitar riffs and Reggae Gad's layered vocals set Legacy Outernational apart. 
They say it as they see it. You'll know it when you hear it, and you'll wake up the next morning humming it.  

In a time of universal deceit, ramming the dancefloor is a revolutionary act
