Testo Greedy Babylon - Jesse Royal
Testo della canzone Greedy Babylon (Jesse Royal), tratta dall'album Greedy Babylon
Now let Jah rise and all enemies be scattered
Like the wax that melteth before the fire
So melt them away oh Jah
Because we living in a world where neglect is prevalent
With a lot of moral cavaliers and less diligent
Me see more ties severing daily
None a mend
Oh thanks to this egotistic government
The messages they send via what they reconmmend
Is I and I a prove seh the fools devil sent
But oh what a sittn when the utes start vent
Demise face all who fail to repent
Dutty Babylon you greedy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
Dutty Babylon you sleezy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
But I know that it won't be long
Before the children stand up strong
I know it won't be long
Before the children stand as one
A desperation on the face of the devastated youth
Who a look a brighter day
But simply can't find the route
Government a contribute to the many destitute
Cause the things they institute only please but a few
Offended by them style and unpleasant attritubes
Startled by the things they do to keep we pon a mute
Commenting on the things which they know not about
The amount of times them disappoint the natty
Can't even count
Dutty Babylon you greedy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
Dutty Babylon you sleezy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
But I know that it won't be long
Before the children stand up strong
I know it won't be long
Before the children stand up strong
A coulda what the utes dem do
Mek them a treat we so bad
Why is it they want to take away
The little that we have
The rich a rob the poor
It hurt mi heart fi see that
Cause everybody know there is enough
Fi all glad
The gluttonous and the covitous
Just a scheme and a plot
Fi confine the utes weh a try counteract
The folly them promote
And all the rubbish them a chat
But soon and very soon
There will be no holding back
Dutty Babylon you greedy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
Dutty Babylon you sleezy
Robbing from the needy
Make we life so hard
Selassie know you not easy
But I'm warning you it won't be long
Before the children stand up strong
I know it won't be long
Before the children stand as one
