|
Didn, t know she was crying |
|
Until now as she turns to look at me |
|
She said boy o' boy you bring tears to my eyes |
|
I said what, she said |
|
Boy o' boy you bring tears to my eyes |
|
Bob Marley said |
|
How long shall they kill our prophets |
|
While we stand aside and look |
|
But little did he know that |
|
Eventually the enemy |
|
Will stand aside and look |
|
While we slash and kill |
|
Our own brothers |
|
Knowing that already |
|
They are the victims of the situation |
|
Still licking wounds from brutality |
|
Still licking wounds from humiliation |
|
She said all these words and the |
|
Wrinkles on her face became |
|
Perfect trails for the tears and she said; |
|
Chorus: (x3) |
|
We are the victims everytime |
|
We got double trouble everytime |
|
She took me outside to the churchyard |
|
Showed me graves on the ground |
|
and she said; |
|
There lies a man who fought for equality |
|
There lies a boy who died in his struggle |
|
Can all these heroes die in vain |
|
While we slash and kill our own brothers |
|
Knowing that already they are the |
|
Victims of the situation |
|
Still licking wounds from brutality |
|
Still licking wounds from humiliation |
|
Chorus till fade |
