Tyrant


Chrous:
If Dem a Tyrant
Kick dem out
Hallelujah
Jump and shout
Uprising yes!
Without a doubt watch out
You better watch out you bad rulers

Never let a politician - oh no
Grant you a favour
He's coming with his plots and schemes after you
To control you for I-ver & ever
Chant Nyahbinghi - Congo drums
Woe to downpressors - yes
Stab through the heart of Babylon
Cause I man no jester when I say

Chorus

You pocketing the government funds
And guilty of deceiving the people
Who worship the ground that you walk on?How can you be so evil?
And any opposition is thrown into prison
And sentence to an execution
The system is a fraud
In greed there's no reward
Let's eradicate corruption

Chorus

We put you on trial now
For stealing votes
Your life in our hands now
Held down by your throat
Power to the people say we find you guilty
In the name of democracy we burn the city
No more hypocrisy says we have no mercy
So much oppression and repression leads to poverty

Chorus

Down trodden masses get up off your asses
And look at all the trouble
This is what the fact is
We paying too much taxes
And we protest cause we know it's a sin

Dem a tyrant
So much violence
Dem a tyrant
Will go down in silence

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Steel Pulse è una delle più grandi band di reggae britanniche, in termini di successo creativo e commerciale. Originari di Handsworth, Birmingham, gli Steel Pulse hanno iniziato a suonare negli anni '70, contaminando le radici autentiche del reggae con influenze jazz e latine. Questo approccio originale ha conquistato un pubblico internazionale, portandoli a pubblicare il loro album di debutto, "Handsworth Revolution", nel 1978. Considerato da molti critici come uno dei punti di riferimento del reggae inglese, l'album ha segnato l'inizio di una carriera ricca di successi. Prima della fine degli anni '80, gli Steel Pulse hanno vinto un Grammy Award, consolidando il loro ruolo di esponenti di spicco del crossover reggae. Negli anni successivi, la band è tornata a esplorare le sonorità roots, integrando elementi dancehall e hip-hop. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Ku Klux Klan", "Sound System", "Steppin' Out" e "Jah Jah City".
