Mr. Preacher man |
[00:54.192] |
What you got to say to di nation |
[00:58.093] |
Mr. Preacher man |
[01:01.144] |
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away |
[01:07.544] |
I've been a believer for all of my life |
[01:11.789] |
But there've been constant conflicts regin my mind |
[01:19.088] |
The people are hurting and crying and searching |
[01:22.979] |
Waiting for a reason to go on |
[01:26.150] |
And all you can say is go pray and be patient |
[01:29.564] |
It won't be this way for too long |
[01:33.396] |
Sitting and waiting to me that seems crazy |
[01:36.543] |
Making them lazy in your congregation |
[01:40.083] |
Pleading to a Savior an emancipator |
[01:43.419] |
Whose very behavior proves you wrong |
[01:46.399] |
So tell me, Mr. Preacher man |
[01:49.970] |
What you got to say to di nation |
[01:53.650] |
Mr. Preacher man |
[01:56.506] |
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away |
[02:03.656] |
|
[02:15.330] |
Since the very beginning you've told them the end was near |
[02:21.567] |
Fearing damnation they buy their salvation |
[02:25.190] |
Not living while they're still here |
[02:28.059] |
But you will have to ansa too, for all di tings unnu neva do |
[02:31.485] |
Cause what you teach in Sunday school, you don't demonstrate |
[02:35.268] |
A use emotions tie dem down instead a sen dem fi go roun' |
[02:38.614] |
And live di words wha dem a soun', mek dem participate |
[02:42.531] |
Mr. Preacher man |
[02:45.022] |
What you got to say to di nation |
[02:48.793] |
Mr. Preacher man |
[02:51.562] |
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away |
[03:06.686] |
|
[03:09.524] |
Di people caught up in religion, traditions of a people |
[03:13.060] |
Who did hold us in subjection |
[03:14.993] |
Rejection of the power that was in our possession |
[03:18.203] |
Before all a dis regression |
[03:20.150] |
When we an di creator had an intimate relationship |
[03:23.591] |
Before dem even lan' ova pon di motherlan' |
[03:26.530] |
Before dem even get fi ask di question |
[03:29.857] |
If we needed dem religion, dem givin' it to we |
[03:32.879] |
A look excuse fi carry dem infection cross di sea |
[03:37.401] |
Den dem tek di ancient people put dem into slavery |
[03:40.564] |
Rape and murder in di holy name of Christianity |
[03:44.031] |
Yes religion is the tool, was the tool of the oppressor |
[03:47.521] |
Cause they never plan to set the people free. |
[03:50.515] |
So tell me, Mr. Preacher man |
[03:53.271] |
What is your reaction to the problems dat we facing |
[03:56.402] |
Is not no blame we placing, we jus pleadin we case in |
[03:59.747] |
Di best way dat we can |
[04:01.326] |
Please help the I dem overstand |
[04:02.891] |
Please help the I dem overstand |
[04:04.811] |
Mr. Preacher man |
[04:10.774] |
