Track 4 from 'Simba (Return to the Throne)' by The Dub Chronicles

lyrics

Intro scatting:

Gee-yah, stap-du-dap-da whoa dis, trouble lord
Sing for me, oh y’don’t you see that
Oh It’s a train don’t make no stop
Don’t stop, oh, we gunna
Make them turn it over
Motherland don’t know
I ain’t workin’ for no paper..
Oh no, mmm

Babylon dem have a style to make you question
Between the rich and poor dem keep a distance
Dem nah go open no door, cause dem no response
Entertain a politician, become the victims
Don’t, sell your soul to get evicted (oo I won’t go)
From all your sweat and blood, drop in quick sand (sand)
Check yourself, learn yourself and get some respect
Jude and jury can’t decide Rasta choices

Life Force! Who act up the most
And nah hail Mother Earth, just cause
Life force! Checkin, who act up the most then
Nahh (force, force)
Life Force, life force (life force)
Life Force, it’s life force

Oyyy lawd

From day one Rasta warn them (from day one)
Dem never comply, suddenly dem be the victims, cause
Jah know Babylon system, don’t you?
Act so wise act so nice
Keep a smile on your face
Babylon take you fi dem price
Walk-in’ away
Leave your mother and your father still a beg on the streets, yes

Life force, life force. Who act up the most?
Life force, life force
It’s just life force, life force
Who act up the most?


Rastamon know it yuh-know,
Hehehe

(Scatting)
