Babylon A Use Dem Brain |
Ah more time you done know say |
Holy mount Zion that’s where the foundation build |
Well traditionally you know say |
Everything got to full before it spill |
Selasie I… Oh Lord |
Well make dem know |
Babylon while you spread you spill |
What we don’t have every ghetto youth will |
Can’t take our own uno better be still |
And lef' and go 'cause you gonna draw nil |
Eh Ey, Yo |
While you spread you spill |
What we don’t have every ghetto youth will |
Can’t take our own uno better be still |
And lef' and go 'cause you gonna draw nil |
(Capleton) |
Judgement |
(Chorus: Capleton) |
Babylon a use dem brain |
True dem waan d ghetto youth dem fi go down the drain |
Babylon a use dem brain |
The mark of d beast the whole ah dem a proclaim |
Babylon a use dem brain |
Them only fight against herb and dem a shipping cocaine |
Babylon a use dem brain |
Well dem you know say bad mind dem ah go burn in tha flame |
(Capleton:) |
Oh what ah agony and oh what a shame |
To see my black brother goin all down the drain |
Man made to suffer and woman to feel pain |
Dey rape mi mommy mi sister I say oh what a shame |
Brother and mi father afi chop sugar cane |
Pon the plantation under stress and shame |
Pon dem hand and dem foot I just see chackles and chains |
Now dem take it off and put it pon dem brain |
Through them ah mi nation fi go down the drain |
Now the youths dem realize and shout the Hailie Hailie name |
Man no pet lion dat mean we can’t tame |
One thing is our desire one thing is our aim |
Me say wicked Babylon and dem ah go down the drain |
(Sizzla:) |
Babylon while you spread you spill |
What we don’t have every ghetto youth will |
Can’t take our own uno better be still |
And lef' and go 'cause you gonna get nil |
Oy Oy Judgement |
Oh what ah crisis you would cry facing this |
Could dem ah come with dem kit jus to take every bit |
Don’t tink me doh know you are the boss fi your kit |
But our share you won’t be living wit |
I tell dem how could dem cadet go down practice |
Now I see dem own face and dem own wanna vomit |
Ey ey ey you’ve not been kind |
I’ve put you up and now you leave us behind |
Now something drop from your back |
Nothing ah touch it cuz ah mine |
What’s due onto us uno fi give we every time |
Babylon… |
(Chorus: Capleton) |
Babylon a use dem brain |
True dem waan d ghetto youth dem fi go down the drain |
Babylon a use dem brain |
The mark of d beast the whole ah dem a proclaim |
Babylon a use dem brain |
Them only fight against herb and dem a shipping cocaine |
Babylon a use dem brain |
Well dem you know say bad mind dem ah go burn in tha flame |
Well this is one thing I cannot overstand |
Dem nah teach me nothin bout mi Asian plan |
Inna the school and the college and the institution |
The curriculum that I get is European |
Ah teach me bout Marco Polo and Napolean |
Nah teach me nuttin bout the river Nile bank |
Where civilization it began |
You say thou shall not steal and should not kill no one |
Yet you steal treacherize and then you teach wrong |
(Sizzla) yea yea slave and you murder all mi dad and mi mom |
But wicked Babylonian and you will love to burn |
Babylon ah… |
(Sizzla:) |
Tell them come down, fire bun all politician |
Ah cauzin dispute makin us their plan |
Oh your dishonesty and war is their illustration |
Competin' this is more than competition |
Could they? |
they fightin jus to enslave black man |
And now them parties jus ah cause bear partition |
And who is you no one takes any instruction… |
