Babylon System

auteur : Bob Marley

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 'bout my freedom,
People 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,
Suckin' the children day by day, yeah,
Me say de Babylon system is the vampire,
Suckin' the blood of the sufferers,
Building church and university,
Deceiving the people continually,
Me say them graduatin' thieves and murderers,
Look out now,
They suckin' the blood of the sufferers,
Tell the children the truth,
Tell the children the truth (X4)
Yeah, we've been trodding on the winepress
Much too long, rebel, rebel,
And we've been taken for granted much too long,
Rebel, rebel now,
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,
From the very day we left the shores
Of our Father's land,
We've been trampled on...
