about

One of Majaican's earlier tracks, the band decided to re-arrange the song and record it in a professional studio since the message still seems necessary. Since it was first performed circa 2005, more walls have gone up, more people have lost their lives trying to get across and more beasts have got to power.
100% conscious lyrics from one of Spain's top ska and reggae bands.

lyrics

I know 'cos we stole the user's guide
These walls were not built to be pushed from the inside
I know 'cos we stole the user's guide
These walls can only be pushed down from the inside

Está pasando en Africa y en LatinoAmérica
Está pasando en Siria y en Ceuta y en Melilla

We went to their countries, took everything we could
And now they want some back
We went to their countries, stole everything we could
And now they want some back
Instead we build barriers, we build them high
To stop them getting in
And we breed nasty animals and give them the power
The power to keep them out
They're coming from the east,
The're coming from the west
But mainly they come from the south
And we smash barriers
High walls to keep them out
