Texty: Bamaselo. Falling Empire.
What life has brought
I would love to teach to those who love to learn
For earths concern each and everyone?..
Father dear Jah Jah
Men are falling with their empires
and I?m feeling much, much better
for I know this won?t be forever
there is a history, well of ignorance
rich oppress all the people
who don?t have money
And they built a world called democracy; we most work till death while they have parties
Champagne in France, England cup of tea, vodka Russia, U.S cocaine factory
Political man you've got the wealth
and we have none
political man yes you got the wealth
and we have none
Father? dear dear dear dear Jah Jahuaaua
men are falling with their empire
and I?m feeling much, much better
for I know this won?t be forever
and there is a history well of ignorance
Rich oppress all the people who don?t have money
and they built a world called democracy we most work till death while they have parties
Champagne in France, well England cup of tea, vodka Russia, U.S cocaine factory
Political man yes you've got the wealth
And we have none
political man yes you've got the wealth
and we have none.
Lord! Cause
many man now of these days dem come fi run down with them gun(4x)
me say dem run down gun me say dem run down gun
run down gun mi say dem run down gun, run down gun me say dem run down(2x)
pon di microphone
Jah man dem call me Michael Livingston
what me come fi do
Jah man me come fi educate di land
A weh mi live ah, the place dem call it wicked Babylon
want you fi listen want you to understand
me say dem run down gun mi say dem run down gun
run down gun me say dem one two one two three and four run down gun
Me say dem run down gun me say dem run down
Soon they shall see their necks under water and rocks on your knees
yes soon they shall see their necks under water and rocks on your knees
What life has brought, oh dear father, oh dear Jah Jah yeah (3x)
