Bob Marley Lyrics... The Songs people never really acknowledge

Babylon System
We refuse to be
What you wanted us to be
We are what we are
That's the way it's going to be, if you don't know
You can't educate I
For no equal opportunity
Talking about my freedom
People freedom and liberty
Yeah, we've been trodding on
The winepress much too long
Rebel, Rebel
We've been trodding on the
Winepress much too long, Rebel
Babylon System is the Vampire
Sucking the children day by day
Me say the Babylon System is the Vampire
Sucking the blood of the sufferers
Building church and university
Deceiving the people continually
Me say them graduating thieves and murderers
Look out now
Sucking the blood of the 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

The Belly Full (but We Hungry)
Them belly full but we hungry.
A hungry mob is a angry mob.
A rain a-fall but the dirt it tough;
A pot a-cook but the food no 'nough.
You're gonna dance to JAH music, dance.
We're gonna dance to JAH music, dance.
Forget your troubles and dance.
Forget your sorrow and dance.
Forget your sickness and dance.
Forget your weakness and dance.
Cost of living get so high,
Rich and poor, they start a cry.
Now the weak must get strong.
They say, "Oh, what a tribulation."


Revolution
Revelation reveals the truth - revelation.
It takes a revolution
to make a solution
Too much confusion
so much frustration, eh!I don't wanna live in the park
Can't trust no shadows after dark yeah-eh
So, my friend, I wish that you could see,
Like a bird in the tree, the prisoners must be free, yeah!
Never make a politician grant you a favour
They will always want to control you forever, eh
So if a fire make it burn
And if a blood make ya run ,Rasta de 'pon top , can't you see?
So you can't predict the flop. Eh-eh!
We got lightning , thunder, brimstone and fire - fire
Lightning , thunder , brimstone and fire - fiyah - fire - fiyah!
Kill, cramp and paralyze all weak at conception
Wipe them out of creation , yeah-eah!
Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah!
Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah!
Oh! Let i'es is i'es , in i'es is black
In i'es is red , in i'es is dread.
Let righteousness cover the earth
Like the water cover the sea, yeah! Yeah!


Revolution requires revelation of your plight, evolution of your thoughts, and a willingness to struggle... Bob taught me that....
