Detainee in detention
Under interrogation
They've paid that price
With their lives
The struggle for liberation
Just how long can this go on
Apartheid system is so wrong
Open a new chapter
Them boot out Botha
Dem boot out Botha
And free Nelson Mandela
No apartheid in a South Africa
Ow
Wanna free the land
Wanna free the land
Wanna free the land

In townships plagued in poverty
They've worked so hard
In gold mines
We call it urban slavery
Just how long can this go on
Apartheid system is so wrong
Open a new chapter
Them boot out Botha

Steel Pulse is one of the most successful British reggae bands, both creatively and commercially. Hailing from Handsworth, Birmingham, they began performing in the 1970s, blending authentic reggae roots with jazz and Latin influences. This unique approach earned them an international following, leading to the release of their debut album, "Handsworth Revolution", in 1978. Widely considered a landmark in British reggae, the album marked the beginning of a successful career. Before the end of the 1980s, Steel Pulse won a Grammy Award, cementing their status as prominent crossover reggae artists. In subsequent years, the band returned to roots sounds, incorporating elements of dancehall and hip-hop. Notable tracks include "Ku Klux Klan", "Sound System", "Steppin' Out" and "Jah Jah City".
