	Story Behind the Song This track came about by laying break beats and then the guitar,all the arrangments have come from various samples using Acid Pro and sample cell plus.Like most of my compositions break beats and the guitar feature thru out the track.I always play live over these beats just to bring that human feeling back into music,string noise etc with very little editing.Lee Baker Lyrics I enlisted a Fijian poet/rapper to record on this track,He raps about how young Pacific Islander's sometimes lose there way and go off the rails with drugs and drink.But at the same time being positive about succeeding if you have faith and a God given right to be equal regardless of color or beliefs. Daren Kamali's rapping has given this album an insight into how immigrants coming to NZ cope with the situation.
