| | Album: | Survival | | Track: | Babylon System | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 111 | | | | Lyrics: | [Bob Marley]
We refuse to be
What you wanted us to be;
We are what we are:
That's the way (way) it's going to be. You
don't know!
You can't educate I
For no equal opportunity:
(Talkin' 'bout my freedom) Talkin' 'bout my freedom,
People freedom
(freedom) and liberty!
Yeah, we've been trodding on the winepress much too
long:
Rebel, rebel!
Yes, we've been trodding on the winepress
much too long:
Rebel, rebel!
Babylon system is the
vampire, yea! (vampire)
Suckin' the children day by day, yeah!
Me
say: de Babylon system is the vampire, falling empire,
Suckin' the blood of the
sufferers, yea-ea-ea-ea-e-ah!
Building church and university, wo-o-ooh, yeah!
-
Deceiving the people continually, yea-ea!
Me say them graduatin'
thieves and murderers;
Look out now: they suckin' the blood of the sufferers
(sufferers).
Yea-ea-ea! (sufferers)
Tell the children the
truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth
right now!
Come on and tell the children the truth;
Tell the
children the truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children
the truth;
Come on and tell the children the truth.
'Cause -
'cause we've been trodding on ya winepress much too long:
Rebel, rebel!
And we've been taken for granted much too long:
Rebel, rebel now!
(Trodding on the winepress) Trodding on the winepress (rebel):
got to rebel, y'all (rebel)!
We've been trodding on the winepress much too long
- ye-e-ah! (rebel)
Yea-e-ah! (rebel) Yeah! Yeah!
From the
very day we left the shores (trodding on the winepress)
Of our Father's land
(rebel),
We've been trampled on (rebel),
Oh now! (we've been
oppressed, yeah!) Lord, Lord, go to ... /fadeout/
[*Sleeve notes
continue:
Now we know everything we got to rebel
Somebody got
to pay for the work
We've done, rebel.]
