War Anthem
America, sierra leone, iraq, afghanistan, palestine,
Israel, colombia, russia, congo, somalia, sudan, dafur...
Again again me ah beg & plead dem fi put down de gun
It seems like di gun ah di only fun
Innocent people dead
Me count more dan a million
Show me di day without a rapabambam, cyaan dun!
Heaven must wonder wha took di two legged
& what ah create all ah di hate whe dem present
Yo, mi nah pretend, disa war anthem
Me tell u dis ah di beginning & mi cyaan see di end
So me haffi say:
[chorus:]
War upon wi again
Right now we haffi ride off di storm
Little t mi haffi ring di alarm
Me cyaan believe mi people dem still so calm
When a war, when a war is going on
We nah see it
Right now we haffi ride off di storm
Me cyaan believe mi people dem still so calm
Right now it time fi ring di alarm
Cause a war, a war is going on
Again again me try fi tell dem seh di world nah run
Dat likkle t me cyaan seem to find no fun
Again again me try fi show dem seh wi days ago done
We nah gon' live fe see di good times cum, cyaan run!
Satan must wonder if some people head ah full ah lead
The way dem soul seem so easy fi get
Baldhead or dread, sins ah tek set
Mind yourself brother
Careful with whom u break bread
Written & said!
When u inna yuh bed
& u ah clench up di spread & ah brust inna cold sweat
Becau regret u ah regret seh u nah do nuttin yet
Yuh life is full ah dread
& di whole world afraid
Becau di time bomb set
Who have di chance fi tek stands & crush a wardlords plans
Who neva try play a part when all di madness ah start
Man who ah big all abroad & ah receive dem award
De peoples choice, u have a voice
Come mek wi stop the fucking war!
[chorus:]
Right now we haffi ride off di storm
Little t mi ah ring di alarm
Me cyaan believe mi people dem still so calm
When a war, when a war is going on
We nah see it
Right now we haffi ride off di storm
Me cyaan believe mi people dem still so calm
Right now mi ah ring di alarm
Cause a war, a war is going on
Right now u safe
& u ah sleep inna u own bed
Good cum di day when u afriad & have no bread
A war ah gwaan over yuh head
& u have no shelt
Me know me haffi mention earth is running red
See how dem ah provoke one another
& nuh bother apoliqize
When murdering child & madda
Give me one good reason other dan di dirty dollar
& bless di innocent who live upon di oily soil!
