ASIAN DUB FOUNDATION - Modern Apprentice lyrics

Written by: lisa das<br><br>I am a modern apprentice<br>I believe in the life-long learning<br>'ain't gonna take away this natural yearning<br>To know the truth<br>The truth about the lies you've been giving<br>It's not a state of affairs that that I'm prepared to live in<br>I will find out for myself<br>No I ain't gonna be your clone<br>Ain't gonna be working my fingers to the bone<br>To feed your mouths<br>When the poor around me are starving<br>And you the fat cats are sitting pretty and laughing<br>I will do it in spite of you<br>I'll educate myself<br>Then I'll empower others<br>So that we can make our own wealth<br>Yes I'll empower others<br>So that we can make our own wealth
