Black Liberty

I'm Black with a Black attitude
I'm telling you the truth
You a hear me?
We are beginning to fight to be a human being
'Cause a human being supposed to be treated as one
Youth man, sing!

A di big men a part of the plan with the ardent to mash up the nation
A just di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation

Look how long man a bawl out fi black liberty
And now di white guy resign and Black a run di country
Him a chat a bag of thing weh nuh necessary
But, dance can gwan 'til after 1:30
Woman can't wait no more to entice we
And mi nuh waan see mi gyal dress up inna no maxi
Who you mean, Maxi? Fi see cinema sing out fi we?
Just some old time skirt from 1940
One thing him never know, him never ask we
When woman X-rated, man spend more money
But unuh blind, open unuh eyes and see it

Say, a di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation
A just di big men a part of the plan with the ardent

Question sign, weh mi ask him?
Who are he to remind full of we?
Put out the ardent fi brutalize we
15 Police and 90 soldier
A must a lick mankind yet inna him body
Then him turn 'round and put the blame pon we
But, a we a keep the dance, play it through and party
And a disturb the higher class people than we
But, mi nuh know 'bout you, no man no higher than me
If him a sleep, mi a sleep
Him a eat, mi a eat
Mi nuh see how him higher than me
A bless me, but unuh blind, open unuh eyes and see it

Say, a di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation
A just di big men a part of the plan with the ardent

You know mi look pon him and tell him say
A so mi know it myself say petty thief a mask up
'Cause everyday dem get up, di bwoy dem dress
Up inna di molten suit and all a titivate up
Go grab a one bag or a chain, dem go bust
Two month after that, dem a beg cigarette butt
True dem turn coke head and the coke mash dem up
Now, ghetto youth, inna life unuh fi step up
And stop walk up and down and turn yourself inna mask up

True, a di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation
Sing, di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation

The youth, come we go chat down Babylon one more time
New style we tell dem again
Come we go chat down Babylon one more time
You a hear me, fat man?
Because Babylon system is a fraud
And yet, still dem a gwan like a dem own di yard
Come we go chat down Babylon one more time
New style we tell dem

Say, a di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation
A just di big men a part of the plan
With the ardent to mash up the nation

Look how long man a bawl out fi black liberty
And now di white guy resign and Black a run di country
