Koli people

The Koli people are historically an ethnic group native to Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana states.

In Mumbai, Native Christians include Koli East Indian Catholics, who were converted by the Portuguese during the 16th century.

History

Nineteenth century

The Kolis of Gujarat intermixed with Rajputs due to the practice of hypergamous marriage, which was commonly used to enhance or secure social status as, for example, with the Nairs and Nambudiri Brahmins of Kerala. Some Kolis had also once held small princedoms before the British Raj period and some were still significant landholders and tenants in the twentieth century. However, most Kolis had lost their once-equal standing with the Patidar community due to the land reforms of the Raj period and, for example, most Kolis in the Surashtra region of Gujarat were still occupied as agricultural labourers or tenant cultivators in the 1990s.

    Mechanized Mind

    by: Clay People

    Ravens fly over
    Clouds coming thunder
    And I want to be alive
    Flesh becomes metal
    Veins merging wires
    Mechanize these eyes
    Brain burning shutdown
    Stronger than millions
    And I want to be alive
    Memory overload
    Electrical showers
    Mechanize these eyes
    Run all the way more than
    I wanted to know
    I fear all that's inside
    Fear all that's inside
    Run all the way more than
    I wanted to know
    I fear all that's inside
    Fear all that's inside
    All the fear inside
    Can't understand
    A metamorphic mindtrap
    Bloodbath
    Rejuvenate
    Manipulate
    No control on the energy
    Changing in front of
    Mind and body
    Machines that thrive
    On the essence of science
    Souls are alien
    Everything mind and machine
    Everything mind and machine
    Ghost trigger blind wave
    Meltdown dismay
    My computerized mind
    Terror, dismemberment
    Anxiety, I'm restricted
    I want to be alive
    Rebirth my only answer
    I give into the cancer
    Mechanize these eyes
    Laser burning through
    And I'm mangled in truth
    Now I know
    Now I know I'm alive
    Run all the way more than
    I wanted to know
    I fear all that's inside
    Fear all that's inside
    Run all the way more than
    I wanted to know
    I fear all that's inside
    Fear all that's inside
    Mechanize these eyes
    Mechanize my mind
    Now I know I'm alive
    Now I know I'm alive
    Mechanize these eyes
    Mechanize my mind
    Now I know I'm alive
    Now I know I'm alive
    All the fear inside
