Babylon a use dem brain


Sizzla
Ah more time you done know say
Holy mount Zion that's where the foundation build
Well traditionally you know say

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

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

Can't take our own uno better be still
And lef' and go 'cause you gonna get nil

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

Chorus (Capleton)
Babylon a use dem brain
True dem waan d ghetto youth dem fi go down the drain

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...

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
