Every man have a right to live
and decide his own destiny,
but as far as my eyes can see,
the system nuh waan fe set the captives free..
Every man have a right to live
and fulfill his own destiny,
but as far as my eyes can see,
Babylon nuh waan fe set the captives free..
So man haffi talk to the people livin' in these days,
'cause noffadem nah really know what's takin' place,
look how long they treat us just like slaves,
Babylon system a play the game unfair..
now it's the time for us to make a change,
the system set de trend but dem a go rearrange,
fight for yah rightz from yuh know weh life's worth,
hail King Selassie I The First..!
Babylon yuh cyan fool some people, sometimes..
but yuh cyaa fool all the people all the time..!
Babylon yuh cyan school some people,sometimes..
but yuh cyaa school all the people all the time..!
Dem unda false pretense an deal wid pure violence,
unnu cyaa deny the evidence..!
but Jah Jah uplift the poor an the oppress,
so who The Almighty bless no bwoy cyaa curse, no..!
but everyday is anedda test,
an the poor man load is the heaviest..!
no bwoy cyaa put mi mouth,
right now me haffi talk to the bigga headz..!
Babylon yuh cyan fool some people, sometimes..
but yuh cyaa fool all the people all the time..!
Babylon yuh cyan school some people,sometimes..
but yuh cyaa school all the people all the time..!
Every man have a right to live
and decide his own destiny,
but as far as my eyes can see,
the system nuh waan fe set the captives free..
Every man have a right to live
and fulfill his own destiny,
but as far as my eyes can see,
Babylon nuh waan fe set the captives free..
Babylon yuh cyan fool some people, sometimes..
but yuh cyaa fool all the people all the time..!
Babylon yuh cyan school some people,sometimes..
but yuh cyaa school all the people all the time..!
