Testo The Price of Peace - Jimmy Cliff
Testo della canzone The Price of Peace (Jimmy Cliff), tratta dall'album The EMI Years 1973-'75
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
You stole my history, destroyed my culture
Cut out my tongue so I can't communicate
Then you mediate, then you separate
Hide my whole way of life, so myself I should hate
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
You took away my name, put me to shame
Made me a disgrace as the world's laughing stock
Make of me a show to cheer and to mock
But your time is at hand, so you better watch the clock
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid (Hey-hey)
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
From the shores of Africa, over mainland of Asia
Caribbean and the Pacific, Central and South America
Yes, you mediate, then you separate
You hide my whole way of life, so myself I should hate
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid
Brother, what a price I've paid (Hey)
Brother, what a price I've paid
Sister, what a price I've paid
Mother, what a price I've paid
Father, what a price I've paid
To be at peace with myself
