Lord, I'm on a Permanent Holiday I'm goin outside to play.
I ain't gonna slave away. Not for no corporate Babylon.
I'm never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games
I'm taking the reigns, breaking the chains, I'm never gonna kneel, no way.
My prophet is heaven sent.
No preacher or president gonna lead I astray
I'm taking Jah highway home.
I've got my own path to follow
Don't know if you'll overstand , I've got my own truth to swallow.
And if I could you know I would throw my guitar on my back,
Pick up the slack and leave here tomorrow. But I know that I'm
A pawn of Babylon, I got to face the facts, embrace the axe
And cut these chains of my sorrow
10,000 years of captivity, we must eventually open up our eyes and see
They're manipulating we. With so much uncertainty and so many mysteries,
Why are so few questioning the unnatural state of things.
It's a nightmare, we're living in a nightmare, everyone's living so scared
They're virtually unaware of this fear that rules their lives, occupies, consumes their minds
This fear of bankruptcy, financial impotency. It's money, money , money.
It's all this digital currency. It's all this monopoly money that keeps us from ever being free.
And so it seems we'll be in this prison for life
Cause If we keep buying then they'll keep selling the lies
And so it's up to I & I
I won't be manipulated, mind-controlled and inundated,
I will seek the revelation, make my life a celebration.
I'm gonna be the change I'm seeking, manifest the words I'm speaking
I refuse to be imprisoned I will make my own decisions
I'll never go astray no.
I'm leaving the past and forwarding fast cause freedom is here to stay.
We got to take back the knowledge, take back the power
Take back what they have stolen from our hearts
Take back the esoteric knowledge, for too long they've been keeping us apart.
We got to take back the knowledge, take back the power,
Humanity don't let this be our final hour.
