Bwoy Dezz - Babylon the Oppressor Lyrics

Babylon the oppressor

Dem a fighting dem oppressing
Dem a dutty dem a racist
Dem facis
Dem nah like fi see we blessings
Me say de whole a dem a rapist
Dem a envy dem nah like we

Rastafari stand a burn dem all
Ooh Jah

Yuh hear de shooting and the bombing
North to south from east to west ahh
Blood a floor like river mirin
Dead bodies all over the places
Everything slow we affi face it
Dem a come deceive we leaders
Make dem turn against the people oh noo
Oh jah jah

2000 years of our History cannot be wiped away so easily
Cus everything is written down in our hearts so deep yuh only need a little time to revive it
So dem can tell we all the lies and all the fallacies
About we mother land we love so dearly
The oldest empire we have inna Ethiopia
King Selassie the ruler we hail HIM

Lord of lord and king of kings oh Jah
Rastafari dem a try fi deny HIM
Oh God
Dem come fi take we Gold
Corrupt we yute dem want we poor
Babylon never mean nah good fi is all
Yuh know,
Vampire inna de cold dem a come fi suck we blood
Ghetto yute we affi stand firm and nah be nah weak faith O lord
Nuclear war dem want fi start
Dem want show how dem tough
Yesus Christ dem all nail pon the cross oh Jah

I don't really think we could a ever sought this out
Dem put my people inna misery daily
Everything bad me see dem a go term it black
Yuh hear of black market and black list daily
We tradition and positions dem a dump aside
Dem religion we want we all fi hail it
Dem mean nah good for us at all
Me still a say this louuuuuuud
Yuh affi know never the system never will like we
One thing for sure dem time is up
When Selassie arise and Good will always prevail over dem evil
Dem think fi run no escape road
Jah faya burning high
And the whole a dem a go get consumed there in
