Victims of a System (Album Version)

Hail Jah Rastafari and Empress Menen! no beginning, no ending
Hail Jah Rastafari, Lion of Judah! Don't make Babylon fool you no!
Don't become a victim of Babylon system

We once a victims of the system, I know Jah children living in darkness
And all dem big plays, no paydays, and now them sell out Jah Jah prophet them for rice and peas
I man say forgive, but never forget, I no fit spill my blood that a dem intent
I know wolf eyes, is bare lies, and now I penetrate them through how they disguise

Bare chains on backbones, and now them wash our brains with charcoals
With stress, you're helpless, Until them turn your soul case into a basket
Well Babylonian, you time's numbered. I know tomorrow is holy Ethiopia
That's when the Lion from Zion; Him a go bust the seven seals and free up I man

Slave trade abolishment, a Hollywood Illusion made with Intent
And then consequent to chain up my brain, until my soul come back now in a Hurricane
Forgive, never forget!, to waste my talent that a them intent and now we keep on coming so strong, 'cause where the enemies of robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
The enemies of robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
Until them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
Until them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
Until them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
Until them sell out Jah Jah prophet them for rice and peas (Hit It)

Victims of a system, children they're dying in darkness
And all the big plays, but still no paydays
And now them sell out Marcus Garvey now for rice and peas
I got a sharp mind and a sharp wit; and now you'll never turn my soul inna nu basket
Psychological missgivings would a never stop this rasta youth from living!
Car bombs change geography! now it's a different psycho-sociology
That they been warranting now by my rude boy face. You'll never turn my Rasta people in disgrace!

Victims of the system! Jah children living in darkness
And all them big plays, no paydays and now them sell out Jah Jah prophet them for rice and peas
Forgive, never norget! I no fit spill my blood that a them intent
And now we keep on coming so strong
Cause where the enemies of Robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
The enemies of robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
Where the enemies of robber Babylonian
Meanwhile them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
Until them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
Until them sell out, sell out, sell out, sell out
And now them sell out Marcus Garvey now for rice and peas

Jah youth we're holding firm
Wicked a watch and squirm
We're inna this ya rootical music long term
The truth them sodomize
The youth them victimize
And with my musical sword them a gu chop down to size
Chop down to size
Chop down to size
Chop down to size
Chop down to size
Chop down to size
