STORYBOARD:
The Album follows the journey of refugees out of war torn Syria into the border region camps and finally passing into Iran before resettlement as part of the refugee relief program. Based on and around real story’s and events the Album aims to raise awareness largely ignored and taboo subject of the plight of Refugees. While all Media focuses on the Political Religious Sectarian disputes in the conflict Message in the Sand focuses on the flight, traffic and journey of the victims of war, the people. both in the War Zone through to the Camps, and finally to the current Journey’s end, (re-housed overseas)

The story of the victims of War is a constant global issue. The album could have been focused on any number of conflicts, Chechnya or Yugoslavia, or Rwanda and many many other places. It has happened in history time and time again,. Syria is currently the battleground of warlords and power seekers and there story commands the Media. It is for this reason that the Story centers on Syria’s refugees, the silenced ones, the discarded, the ignored.

This Album is not an attempt to judge, take sides, claim right and wrong, be Political in anyway.

The unfortunate truth for the Refugee is that often there is as much danger in fleeing a war as in being a victim of the conflict on the field. Music is the universal language that all people speak and it is this hope that the message in the sand will be carried forward to all.

03 War is not the Answer الحرب ليست هي الحل

War Chatter

War is not the solution, solution, solution, solution,

There was a gas attack, a Chemical Attack in Syria, and a lot of people were, injured, and, and, and hurt,

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

So the UN had a team to investigate who did this Gas attack, this Chemical attack. The first time the team were shot, shot shot shot, shot. So we had to wait then they sent another team to investigate the situation.

The tension is already so so high.

The tension is already so so high.

It’s a very dangerous situation that we are in. What do people want ? What do people of all Countries want ? Security. They want their survival taken care of. That’s what we want. We don’t want to fight each other.

This is all about Governments against Governments.

Most people could very easily live together when they have everything taken care of. About when we have a house when we have enough food, when we have enough water, when we have a stable income.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit. The Solution is not in Bombs, in missiles, the solution is to create a permanent world where everyone can live a good life, and only when we do that and stop this exploitative economy that makes poverty, and , and what do you call it, friction worldwide.

We’re not going to end any wars or any friction if we have these power games, if we have these money games, if we have this system of inequality that creates poverty, and creates people to see each other as threats, and, creates propaganda , false ideas, and about people, about groups of people and push people up against each other.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

that creates propaganda , false ideas, and about people, about groups of people and push people up against each other, or believing that we have to be a certain way just to be good , but war is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

War is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

War is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

not, not. the solution not. not the solution, not. not. the solution……

Refugee Press Story:

معاون دبیر اول وزارت امور خارجه جمهوری اسلامی ایران، حسین امیر عبدالاهیان در انتشار بیانیهای اعلام فرمودند؛ که مرزهای با شکوه جمهوری اسلامی ایران برای کمک به دهها هزار پناهنده سوریه که در حال حاضر در ازدهام فراوان در کمپهای اردون هاشمی زندگی میکنند، باز میشود تا زمانیکه امکاناتلازم برای برگشت انها به مملکتشان فراهم شود.

The deputy secretary of the foreign ministry published his manifesto announcing that the borders of the Glorious Islamic Republic of Iran will open to receive ten thousand Syrian refugees currently lodged in a number of neighboring countries refugee camps. Housing will be provided until a relocation agreement can be brokered with other nations.

سازمان ملل متحد، پیش بینی مکند که اگر اغتشاشات سوریه به پایان نرسد تعداد پناهندگان به بیش از یکملیون و یکصد هزار نفر خواهد رسید.

The United Nations have warned that if a solution to the Refugee crisis is not found, we could be looking at excess of 100,000 transitory people.

Some families make girls accept Marriage proposals. The money helps to pay for rent, for food. Girls accept marriage proposals from strangers. They have suffered greatly and they look to marriage or protection, shelter, money clothing. The things they have lost through the war. For Young Girls, some as young as ten years old, It is very dangerous. Girls have been kidnapped. They choose Marriage for protection.This is exploitation of the people.)

اَجُوْ رْجَاْلْ لَعَنَّا عَلْ مُخَيَّمْ .اَجُّوْ مِنْ اَكْتَرْ مِنْ بَلَدْ السعودية,قطر, الاردن. اَجُوْ مْشَانْ بَنَاتْنَا مْشَانْ يِطِلْبُوْ مِنَّا اِنُّوْ نْبِيْعْ بَنَاتْنَا مْشَانْ يِتْزَوَجُوُنْ .فِيْ عيلَاتْ خَلِتْ بَنَاتْهَا تْوَافِقْ عَلْ زَوَاجْ.المَصَارِيْ رَحْ تْسَاعْدُنْ مْشَانْ الْاَجَارْ وِالْاَكِلْ .

(Men come to the camps, they come from many places, Saudi Arabia, Qatar Jordan. They follow our Daughters home and ask us to sell our daughters for marriage to them. Some families make girls accept Marriage proposals. The money helps to pay for rent, for food.)

Lyrics Translation from Syrian Dialect to Contemporary Arabic

رجال قد اتو الى المخيم , قد اتوا من لاد مختلفة , السعودية , قطر , الاردن . اتو من وراء منازل فتياتنا وطلباَ منا لكي نبيع فتياتنا للزواج بهم . بعض العائلات يجبرون الفتيات على القبول بعروض الزواج . المال يساعدهم لدفع الاِجار, ولاجل الطعام .

08 Flower in the Desert زهرة في الصحراء

Syrian Dialect Arabic

خَطَفُوهُمْ , بِنْتين , لا تَلاتِه . وَئْتْ رَجَعُوْهُم كَانُو يَائْسِينْ . صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ اِنْتِحَارْ . هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ .فِيْ بَنَاتْ عَبِخَلُوْهُمْ يْشْتِغْلُو بِلْ دَعَارَه .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ.

(They took them, 2, no I think 3 girls. When they brought them back they were depressed. They talked about suicide. It happens all the time. We are in danger. Some girls are made to work as prostitutes. We are in Danger.)

Lyrics Translation from Syrian Dialect to Contemporary Arabic

قد اخذوهم , اثنتان ,لا بل ثلاثة فتيات.عندما اعادوهم قد كُنًّ محبطات .تكلمنًّ عن الانتحار.ان ذلك يحصل دائماً.نحن في خطر .بعض الفتيات قد اجبروا على العمل في الدعارة .نحن في خطر.

Survivors are very reluctant to report rape due to extreme and restrictive cultural values and stigma. Survivors are very unlikely to seek support due to the risk of being killed by their families, shame and fear of facing a continued cycle of physical and sexual violence including honor killing, survival sex, increased risk of early and coerced marriage, domestic violence and risk of suicide are all issues of concern. Fundamentally Women do not have safe access to reliable services and support.

Persian (Farsi)

جسد ۳دختر جوانی که به منطقه امنی در ایران فرستاده شده بودند، یک روز بعد از رسیدنشان در حالی که خود را حلق اویز کرده بودند، در جنوب ساختمانهایی که به انها مکان داده شده بود پیدا کردند.
احتمال میرود که این ۳نفر تحمل شرمساری تجاوزی که به انها شده بود نداشتند و دست به خودکشی زدند.

(Unable to bear the humiliation and social stigma attached to rape, 3 refugee girls who had transferred from camps in neighboring countries to safe facilities in Iran were found hanged south of the housing blocks the morning after arrival. An open verdict of suicide in all three cases has been recorded.)

Rape is becoming increasing widespread throughout the Syria fallout conflict zone. One new study reports that rape has become so prevalent that it is a factor in driving thousands of Syrian families into exile.

Syrian Dialect Arabic

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ

(They talked about committing suicide)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

A Flower in the Desert,
Hanging from the Tree
Blood Red ,. Shifts still uncomfortably

A Flower in Desert,
Plucked from Life,
Twitching still on failing sunset breeze

A Flower in the Desert
Body Broken, Stripped in rage
Neck wrenched painted red in unnatural Shame

A Flower in the Desert
Eyes plucked clean,
Worn on Crow’s Claws , ornaments and rings

A Flower in the Desert
Condemning still
Unlawfully desecrated, Bartered for a meal

A Flower in the Desert
Vain curses voiced
violation, rape betrayal of youthful joy

A Flower in the Desert
Bodily forget,
Seek Peace in Death
Feeding the dust in tainted regret

A Flower in the Desert
Guilt for silver changing hands
Death cheats the deal the never has

A Flower in the Desert
Mournful Release
Violent Violate bodily disbelief

Heed not the breathless whispers
Nor voices do the dead dispose
Heinous acts against innocents
Crimes never to be disclosed

Frenzied, Hateful unfathomable desires
Claim and Consume the fruit of youth
Nothing left but the rotting knot
Upon the asphyxiating rope of truth

These are the victims of war
Forever lost, the brightest lights
These are the Victims of war
Mankind chose a Dominion of Violence

09 Contemptuous Eulogy مديح للازدراء

Persian (Farsi)

رئیس جمهوری ایران حسن روحانی اعلام کردند که؛
جمهوری اسلامی کمکهای انسانی خود را به سوریه ادامه میدهد.

(In July, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani underlined that the Islamic Republic of Iran would continue dispatch aid to Syria)

رئیس جمهور اقای روحانی فرمودند؛
در شرایط سختی که در مردم سوریه در حال حاضر بسر میبرند، دولت ایران کمکهای انسانی و همکاری خود را به انها ادامه میدهد، در حای که مخالف اغتشاشات در مناطق اشغال شده در سوریه است.

(President Rouhani was reported to have confirmed that due to the difficult living conditions of the Syrian People, the Iranian Government will continue distribution of humanitarian aid to Syria, though remains steadfast in condemnation of hostile acts in the region , specially related to Syria.)

Iran has staunchly backed Syrian President Bashar al-Assad with Military and Financial aid since an anti-regime uprising first began in March 2011 and regards the Syrian opposition groups as terrorists being backed by Western and Arab countries and as a result the main driver behind the refugee crisis is Syria.

(President Rouhani was reported to have confirmed that due to the difficult living conditions of the Syrian People, the Iranian Government will continue the distribution of humanitarian aid to Syria, though remains steadfast in condemnation of hostile acts in the region , specially related to Syria.)

Iran’s deputy foreign minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian was reported to have warned strongly against any foreign interference to impose change in Syria.

دولت ایران بارها همکاری خود را برای برقراری صلح در سوریه و باز کردن راه برای مزاکرات بین دولت و مخالفان دولت و بر قراری دولتی مستقل و ایجاد ارامش در خاور میانه اعلام فرمودند.
دولت ایران نمایندگان دولت سوریه و مخالفان این دولت را برای مذاکره و پیدا کردن راهی برای خاتمه جنگ و بر قراری صلح در این منطقه به ایران دعوت شدند،
که این کنفرانس در اواسط نوامبر با شعار جنگ نه، ازادی بله، اغاز شد.

(Iranian officials have underlined that Tehran is in favor of co-operation and negotiations between the Syrian government and opposition groups to create stability in the Middle East. representatives of the Government of Syria and opponents of the government were invited to Iran to negotiate and find a way to end war and establish peace in the region.The National Dialogue conference kicked off work in Tehran mid-November with the motto “No to violence, Yes to Democracy”.)

Iran has stepped up support on the ground for President Bashar al-Assad, providing elite teams to gather intelligence and train troops, US reporting sources advised today. This further backing from Tehran, along with deliveries of munitions and equipment form Moscow is helping to keep Assad in power at a time when neither his own forces nor opposition fighters have a decisive edge on the battlefield.

While the presence of Iranian Military personnel in Syria is not new, US military experts believe Tehran has in recent months sent in more specialists to enable Assad to outlast his enemies at home and abroad.

A former senior Iranian official with close IRGC links said Iranian forces were active in the area. These include senior commanders from the elite Qud’s force, the external and secretive arm of the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as well as IRGC members.

The evidence indicated hundreds of Iranian advisers and trainers were in side Syrian at any one time. These figures could not be verified from Syria but the deaths of at least two IRGC commanders in Syria have been reported publicly.

رئیس جمهور ایران حسن روحانی اعلام کردند ؛
که کمکهای انسانی خود را به سوریه ادامه خواهد داد، ایشان فرمودند که برای کمک به مردم سوریه که اکنون در شرایط سختی بسر میبرند، ادامه میدهد.

The Iranian Deputy foreign minister called for an end to the violence in Syria, where he was reported to have said a national dialogue was needed to pave the way forward for a comprehensive Government. Humanitarian aid to Syria will continue to help reduce adversity for the Syrian people.

سازمان حقوق بشر، برای اسکان پناهندگان در خارج از مناطق اشغال شده به ۱۷ کشور که فرانسه و المان هم جزو انها میباشد، برنامه جدیدی را اغاز کرد.

The UNHCR were today reported to have launched a Refugee relocation program to 17 Countries outside of the affected area including France and Germany.

Cela fait trois mois qu’ils sont arrivés en France. Pour la plupart, la violence et les combats ont détruit leurs villes et villages et les ont force à quitter leur pays. Depuis ils ont successivement traversé la Jordanie, l’Iraq, l’Iran et suite a un programme de relogement a l’étranger ils sont finalement arrivé à Paris; un total de 126 familles.

(They arrived in France 3 months ago. For most of them war and violence have destroyed their homes and lives and forced them to flee there homeland. For 126 families, since leaving home they have had to cross Jordan, Iraq and into Iran and finally thanks to an overseas rehousing program, they have arrived in Paris.)

Il se retrouve chaque jour dans le parc de Saint Ouen. Depuis trois mois leur nombre ne fait qu’augmenter. Dans le parc on découvre des gens affamés, épuisés et malades, on voit des enfants en bas age et des femmes enceinte.

(Everyday they gather in the Saint Ouen Park where we find them suffering from starvation, dishevelment, neglect, illness among theer number there are young children and pregnant women. month on month the numbers just keep increasing.)

La plupart de ces refugiés ont déjà déposés des demandes d’asile mais la question du logement pose problème. A proximité du parc, l’hôtel accueil quelques familles, mais les solutions manque. Chaque jour, pour les associations bénévoles c’est la course Contre la montre pour s’assurer que personne ne dorment dehors, mais la situation est de plus en plus difficile a gérer. Face à cette situation d’urgence, les mobilisations grandissent et les associations appellent l’état à réquisitionner un lieu d’accueille pour héberger ces familles.

(Most of the Refugees are seeking asylum status, but housing remains an issue. Some families have been put up in a small hotel on the outskirts of the park but solutions for all are hard to come by. Charity’s run vigil to try and ensure no one gets left sleeping rough and support for action grows. Charities are calling on the State to become involved and provided a solution to the housing crisis.)

Are you ready.
(Verse 1)
I’ll be getting down like I’m in the system of a
See me get down with the syndrome and your mother
I’ll be coming soon tell your sister tell your brother
Cos they ain’t seen nothing like it cos there ain’t no other
One that can do what I can do, and what you do to me I’ll do to you times 2
I’m Tommy two shits cos mine is always better, you might be a bus but I’m a fucking double decker
(Chorus)
Are you ready
Are you ready
Are you ready
For what you’re about to receive
Are you ready
Are you ready
Are you ready
For me
(Verse 2)
You don’t even know what you wanna do
What I wanna be what I see’s right in front of me
When I’m gonna do it know I wanna do it properly
And hell I’ve been through it and I’m saying there’s no stopping me
All I wanna know is can you feel me
Any time you see me better know it is the real me
I need to make this music thing work cos working 9 to 5 well it’s damn near killed me
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Going crazy like I’m over the cuckoos nest
Not doing it now but I know I gotta do my best
Long way to the top and I don’t know if I will reach
I haven’t reached my peak yet and no I’m not an idiot
Have a look at me and tell me what you see
Many people think they do but they don’t know me
Show me something that I’ve never seen before and I guarantee that I can show you something more
(Chorus)

Broken bottles
(Chorus)
Broken bottles on the floor
I think it’s time for me to clean up
But I don’t live here anymore
And still ain’t living life too clean cut
Sweeping under carpets
Wipe away the dust
I don’t know why I had to start it
If I was only gonna let it rust
Only gonna let it rust
Only gonna let it rust
Only gonna let it rust
(Verse 1)
Getting in at 8am on Sunday morning once again
My housemate asks me where I’ve been I say I really don’t know
I’ve been here and I’ve been there the whole time sitting in my chair
Now rolling up without a care I hope these feelings won’t go
Cos then it’s back to reality
So it can take another stab at me
I’ll just let my mind escape from gravity
Let it find its way and waver on the line of sanity, I’m saying man how can it be
That everything I’ve known and everything I’ve seen
Every way I’ve grown and everything I’ve seen
Should all amount to something but it makes no odds to me
Now let me tell you what I’m left with
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
I’m walking down the street with my hood up and my head down
I don’t wanna see a thing and I don’t wanna hear a sound
All I got is me and I ain’t got no place to be
I need to try think differently cos I just can’t get what I need
What is it I need and what is it I want
What is it you speak and what is my response
I take it day by day so I can just get through the months
But for now I’m still left with……………..

Think it’s time for me to clean up
But I don’t live here anymore

Called her a cunt
(Verse 1)
My friend came up to me and he told me what he did last night, he said
I called my girl the worst thing I’ve ever said to her in my entire life
I asked him what he called her, he said, I was very blunt
I can’t believe that I said it, but I called her a cunt
Have you ever said that to your girl
Then I replied with a simple well
(Chorus)
I called her a cunt at the station
I called her a cunt at home
I called her a cunt on the Internet
And I called her a cunt on the phone
I called her a cunt at the station
I called her a cunt at home
I called her a cunt in public
I always call her a cunt on my own
(Verse 2)
I called her a cunt in Columbia
I called her a cunt in Crete
I called her a cunt in the kitchen
I called her a cunt in the street
I called her a cunt in kfc
And I called her a cunt in the club
I called her a cunt as I k.m.t’d
But I called her a cunt with love
I called her a cunt over breakfast
And I called her a cunt at lunch
I called her a cunt over dinner
I always call her a cunt when we munch
I called her a cunt in the morning
And I called her a cunt at night
I call her a cunt in the daytime
I call her a cunt whenever I like
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
I called her a cunt at the farmyard
And I called her a cunt in the forest
I called her a cunt in a field
I even called her a cunt in the florist
I called her a cunt in the Caribbean
And I called her a cunt on the coast
I called her a cunt at the coliseum
Called her a cunting dry toast
I called her a cunt in the bath
And I called her a cunt in the shower
I called her a cunt for a minute
And I called her a cunt for an hour

With a cunt cunt here and a cunt cunt there
Here a cunt there a cunt everywhere a cunt x4
Cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt

Curtain call
(Verse 1)
Let’s crack open a beer
By the end of the night no I won’t be seeing clear
But we’ve still got a few hours
So we can just sit and drink and chill right here
The Suns out and so are all the girls
Why don’t you come over here and let me rock your world
I know that might seem a bit far fetched
Cos you are like a golden throne and I am like a park bench
But fuck it tonight I’m getting on it and there’s not a person on the planet who can stop it
Cos I’m flying now and that’s a feeling I know won’t be dying out
(Chorus)
Tonight, I’m losing all my senses
Tonight, is gonna be relentless
Tonight, I’m finding where the end is
Who would’ve thought that my first night would also be my last
(Verse 2)
Let’s make our way to the dance floor
But of course not before we go to the bar
You already know what I’ll ask for
And even though we’ve only gone yards we have gone too far
Cos Mandy and Richard are joining us and I hope you don’t mind
Let’s dance our way into the crowd and drink until we all go blind
I’m a man on a mission and my mission is accomplished
But I’m not gonna stop I’m gonna do some dumb shit
Like I always do, and now it’s time to go back to the room
But the party’s not done, we’ve still got more drink yes we’ve still got more fun
We’ve still got more hours until we see the sun
So for now let’s just enjoy
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Now we’re back in the apartment partying as hard as when we first started
Before we’d even departed I took the stance that I won’t be going half hearted
And now I’m living up to that quest
Cos right now I’m a right royal mess
Richards laid out on the chest of drawers
And this nights been one of the best
But then things took a funny turn
Us likely lads will never bloody learn
Things in plain sight where they shouldn’t be
And through the window in came security
Caught in the act and not much we can do
We even offered them a back hander
Wiped it on the floor and asked them where’s the proof
Then on his vest he taps a fucking go pro camera
So that’s us on the first night ejected
Nothing we can now but accept it
One thing that we learned for certain
If you’re gonna do drugs then close the bloody curtain
(Chorus)

Shards
(Verse 1)
I look outside, while looking in
I’m seeing new things, I’ve already seen
I’m going places, while staying put
I’m moving backwards while I’m stuck on my front foot
(Pre-chorus)
Getting Richard on the line
And gather up the shards
I’ve got the winning ticket this time
I’ve gone too far but I’ve only gone yards, but I’ve only gone yards
(Chorus)
And they think I’ve taken it too far
But I’ve only gone yards
And they think I’ve taken it too far
But I’ve only gone yards
And they think I’ve taken it too far
But I’ve only gone yards
But I’ve only gone yards, yards
(Verse 2)
Wrap me up, in grace and sin
I’m at the end but where the fuck do I begin
Leave the queue, but tow the line
Crumbled silence, show me yours and I’ll show you mine
(Pre-chorus)

Swim that length
(Verse 1)
A stumble on a lead is what I call a power trip
A girl with eczema on her chest has truly got some cracking tits
I shit so hard and break the bowl that’s what I call a cracking shit
When I roll through I’m always shouting yo what’s crackalackin bitch
I’m black and rich, oh wait I’m not I’m fucking white and poor
The once abhorred is now adored and screaming out for more
The boards I walked the air I soared until I ended at your door
Upon arrival what I saw is that I needed something more
And that is not what you gave me
I didn’t know what to do
But then my boy he said something
And now I’m saying to you
(Chorus)
Everybody come you gotta swim that length
Don’t nobody stop until you swim that length
Everybody jump in and just swim that length
I said swim that length you know swim that length x2
Tell me have you got the strength
To come with me and swim that length
(Verse 2)
Fuck jumping fences I’ll just run straight through em
Please forgive me father cos I know not what I’m doing
Actually I do and couldn’t give a single fuck
Which is possibly the reason why I’m shit out of luck
Take me up as I bring you down to my level
Where posh nosh is just a sandwich toasted on a brevvel
Like billy idol when I’m drunk I yell like a rebel
Now can you hold my drink while I dance with the devil
And he’s a very good dancer
Ask me to go slow but know I’ll surely go faster
Look at me I’m like dry wall I’m getting plastered
If you ask me what to do now this will be my answer
(Chorus)
(Breakdown)
Take it one step further that is what it means
Take it past the furthest point you’ve ever been x2
(Chorus)

Yes no yes (the backslap song)
(Verse 1)
Now let me show these fools the way that is supposed to be
Best thing since sliced bread because I put it in a toaster, see
You must be joking me, to me you’re just a broken g
And I don’t give a fuck when I’m at home and I am toking cheese
I put bread up my arse and spit out toast
You’re full of gas while I am hotter than most
I ain’t trying to boast but I fucked your girl so hard
Next thing I knew man I was fucking her ghost
Phone fags wallet bus pass keys iPod check
Every time I go to leave the house, my god
The futures not bright or orange it’s odd
And you’ll never catch me slipping when you see me out on my tod
2 pennies in my pocket hoping they’ll mate
Because my monetary situation is in a dyer state
I don’t know where im going and I don’t believe in fate
But while you’re down there love can you just please fellate
(Chorus)
Oh oh you don’t wanna backslap
You don’t wanna you don’t wanna you don’t wanna backslap x2
(Verse 2)
I rack myself a line and sniff up all the confidence
As the powder hits my throat Columbia gets compliments
An overwhelming feeling now to show my dominance
And I don’t think I’ll ever give a fuck about the consequence
Fuck crystal I wanna jagerbomb
You know there ain’t a vip list that my name be on
I drink tap water never evian
I don’t know French but I know I’m tres bien
F dot raser, Fraser or just call me strap man
Never actually held a strap but always armed with a backhand slap
Backslap have a smack from little jacks hand
Watch what you do you don’t want one across the back man
Leave me alone when I’m having a kip
Cos when I get woken up yes I can sometimes act a prick
If it becomes apparent that you need a pistol whip
That’s when I whip my weapon out and slap you with my dick
(Chorus x2)

PREVIEW LINK :

CITY SLICKERS focuses on the Gross misconduct of City Financial Sector Traders and Decision Makers and there scant disregard to corporate responsibility specifically with regard to social irresponsibility and drug and amphetamine use throughout the London City Square mile.

Lyrics:

People turn a blind eye to Drugs and Alcohol, but also with a range of other behavior because they don’t want to lose a key employee. Someone who can make a lot of Money.

A lot of Money

A lot of Money

I ain’t seen a vicar’s daughter of that skunk mate !

Someone who can make, a lot of Money, Money, Money , Money , Money.

Major banks and Financial firms are increasingly carrying out drug testing their employees in a bid to cut out abuse in city workers. A study my the Rowntree foundation found anecdotal evidence for an increase of Drug testing in some high profile firms. Particularity in the Financial Sector where there are no obvious health or safety justifications.

I ain’t seen a vicar’s daughter of that skunk mate ! Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk Skunk

I’d rather be benny’d up that off with Bob Hope !

Two fuckin Henry’s make a Rory my son, no less no more, more ,more, more.

Two fuckin Henry’s make a Rory my son, no less no more.

Two fuckin Henry’s make a Rory my son, no less no more.

A lot of Money.

Two fuckin Henry’s make a Rory my son, no less no more.

Someone who can make a lot of Money.

Two fuckin Henry’s make a Rory my son, no less no more.

A lot of Money, Money, Money.

On an average of 1,500 staff randomly checked for Drugs, 41 were found to be users of cocaine, 124 synthetic drugs and 28 for cannabis and unclassified narcotics. People turn a blind eye to Drugs and Alcohol, but also with a range of other behavior because they don’t want to lose a key employee. Someone who can make a lot of Money.

A lot of Money.

FISHINABOX – MESSAGE IN THE SAND ALBUM REVIEW

FISHINABOX – MESSAGE IN THE SAND ALBUM REVIEW

FISHINABOX Messge in the sand review

The highly anticipated new Album from FISHINABOX has rolled out Globally on Digital.

Check the link for the Album Review: http://www.themusicbiz.org/the-most-important-music-album-probing-the-impact-of-the-syrian-war-cut-to-date/

رسالة في الرمال Message in the Sand – Syria Conflict

SHOOT

TRACK LIST: Performed in Farsi, Arabic, English and French

Act I : CONFLICT
01 Apocalypse Now يأتي سفر الرؤيا
02 Message in the Sand رسالة في الرمال
03 War is not the Answer الحرب ليست هي الحل

Act II : TRANSITION
04 Hegira هجرة
05 Refugee لاجئ
06 Transit Camp Cattle Market السوق
07 Zaghrota زغروطة

Act III : DENOUEMENT
08 Flower in the Desert زهرة في الصحراء
09 Contemptuous Eulogy مديح للازدراء
10 New Life حياة جديدة

The Album follows the journey of refugees out of war torn Syria into the border region camps and finally passing into Iran before resettlement as part of the refugee relief program. Based on and around real story’s and events the Album aims to raise awareness largely ignored and taboo subject of the plight of Refugees. While all Media focuses on the Political Religious Sectarian disputes in the conflict Message in the Sand focuses on the flight, traffic and journey of the victims of war, the people. both in the War Zone through to the Camps, and finally to the current Journey’s end, (re-housed overseas)

The story of the victims of War is a constant global issue. The album could have been focused on any number of conflicts, Chechnya or Yugoslavia, or Rwanda and many many other places. It has happened in history time and time again,. Syria is currently the battleground of warlords and power seekers and there story commands the Media. It is for this reason that the Story centers on Syria’s refugees, the silenced ones, the discarded, the ignored.

This Album is not an attempt to judge, take sides, claim right and wrong, be Political in anyway.

The unfortunate truth for the Refugee is that often there is as much danger in fleeing a war as in being a victim of the conflict on the field. Music is the universal language that all people speak and it is this hope that the message in the sand will be carried forward to all.

Flower in the Desert زهرة في الصحراء – Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness

Flower in the Desert زهرة في الصحراء – Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness

Li Webster returns to centre stage on the release of the New FISHINABOX Album Message in Sand: https://www.facebook.com/FishinaboxRecords

jer&li-b2

After a seemingly endless voice on voice over , part over part, to complete layer by layer the full choral effect for the backing track through the album, Li showed her versatility in creating the perfect shadow and mood for the delivery for the Poem of Mourning ,”Flower in the Desert” . A sorrowful , horrific but stark text on a tragic tale of suicide.

Thoughts on “Flower in the Desert ?”:
…Whatever the subject matter, no matter now difficult to work with morally , we have an obligation to add depth and meaning to our work , and even if possible seed even a grain of beauty within, even if melancholy, so that light can be found in even the darkest of places..”

She has already proved invaluable in stepping into the Role as the Angry feminist on SOLD the Album. Laying down a perfect balance of disdain and anger that paces the tension perfectly without losing the comedy in the storyboard.

Li Webster was drawn to the microphone following her strong leaning to jazz ballads, and as a well versed sultry siren, a smoke kissed bar vixen of the open mic scene on the London’ s Jazz circuit, Li brings an ethereal but centre strong voice to the FISHINABOX project.

FLOWER IN THE DESERT

(melancholy and the infinite sadness)

Syrian Dialect Arabic

خَطَفُوهُمْ , بِنْتين , لا تَلاتِه . وَئْتْ رَجَعُوْهُم كَانُو يَائْسِينْ . صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ اِنْتِحَارْ . هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ .فِيْ بَنَاتْ عَبِخَلُوْهُمْ يْشْتِغْلُو بِلْ دَعَارَه .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ.

(They took them, 2, no I think 3 girls. When they brought them back they were depressed. They talked about suicide. It happens all the time. We are in danger. Some girls are made to work as prostitutes. We are in Danger.)

Lyrics Translation from Syrian Dialect to Contemporary Arabic

قد اخذوهم , اثنتان ,لا بل ثلاثة فتيات.عندما اعادوهم قد كُنًّ محبطات .تكلمنًّ عن الانتحار.ان ذلك يحصل دائماً.نحن في خطر .بعض الفتيات قد اجبروا على العمل في الدعارة .نحن في خطر.

Survivors are very reluctant to report rape due to extreme and restrictive cultural values and stigma. Survivors are very unlikely to seek support due to the risk of being killed by their families, shame and fear of facing a continued cycle of physical and sexual violence including honor killing, survival sex, increased risk of early and coerced marriage, domestic violence and risk of suicide are all issues of concern. Fundamentally Women do not have safe access to reliable services and support.

Persian (Farsi)

جسد ۳دختر جوانی که به منطقه امنی در ایران فرستاده شده بودند، یک روز بعد از رسیدنشان در حالی که خود را حلق اویز کرده بودند، در جنوب ساختمانهایی که به انها مکان داده شده بود پیدا کردند.
احتمال میرود که این ۳نفر تحمل شرمساری تجاوزی که به انها شده بود نداشتند و دست به خودکشی زدند.

(Unable to bear the humiliation and social stigma attached to rape, 3 refugee girls who had transferred from camps in neighboring countries to safe facilities in Iran were found hanged south of the housing blocks the morning after arrival. An open verdict of suicide in all three cases has been recorded.)

Rape is becoming increasing widespread throughout the Syria fallout conflict zone. One new study reports that rape has become so prevalent that it is a factor in driving thousands of Syrian families into exile.

Syrian Dialect Arabic

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ

(They talked about committing suicide)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

A Flower in the Desert,
Hanging from the Tree
Blood Red ,. Shifts still uncomfortably

A Flower in Desert,
Plucked from Life,
Twitching still on failing sunset breeze

A Flower in the Desert
Body Broken, Stripped in rage
Neck wrenched painted red in unnatural Shame

A Flower in the Desert
Eyes plucked clean,
Worn on Crow’s Claws , ornaments and rings

A Flower in the Desert
Condemning still
Unlawfully desecrated, Bartered for a meal

A Flower in the Desert
Vain curses voiced
violation, rape betrayal of youthful joy

A Flower in the Desert
Bodily forget,
Seek Peace in Death
Feeding the dust in tainted regret

A Flower in the Desert
Guilt for silver changing hands
Death cheats the deal the never has

A Flower in the Desert
Mournful Release
Violent Violate bodily disbelief

Heed not the breathless whispers
Nor voices do the dead dispose
Heinous acts against innocents
Crimes never to be disclosed

Frenzied, Hateful unfathomable desires
Claim and Consume the fruit of youth
Nothing left but the rotting knot
Upon the asphyxiating rope of truth

These are the victims of war
Forever lost, the brightest lights
These are the Victims of war
Mankind chose a Dominion of Violence

PENNY RIMBAUD best quotes: thought on FISHINABOX

penny1 updated

Penny Rimbaud Best Quotes

Fishinabox?

I liked the name, thought it sounded Brooklyn, and as I like Brooklyn, I bought in (I like standing me down in Brooklyn riverside park watching Manhattan grow me).
Liked the Buddhist inferences. Liked the beard. Liked the trumpet:
Miles away.
Don’t mind one bit what bit gets used.
Free like that.
Who owns what?
What?
That like free.
Never was mine to play with.
And then it grows its organic way: as much down as up when it grows its organic way. Tastes better too. Just keep on going in nowhere pool until not going. Nothing really ever happens. Just passing beyond measurement, but never indifference.

That said,
it wasn’t me.
Carry on.
