Culture - Cape Coast To Ja lyrics

In Jamaica we call it dungee
But the British man him call it dungeon
That them sanction
If you saw what took place
In Cape Coast dungeon (West
Africa) if you saw what took place
Down in the dungeon
Man blood clot up thick down in this dungeon
Blackman blood turn up thick
Down in this dungeon i can see the sign of
Torture down in this dungeon (I
Smell blood) you can smell the smell of
Stale blood down in th edungeon
Nowhere to turn, yet so much in there
Nowhere to sit down i must be standing
(No chair in here)
Straight after that, the ship was anchor
They call to a shock away call "man too fit"
And nowadays they dress it up a
And they no call it benefit
And nowadays Babylon dress it up a
And they no call it benefit
(And me no want no benefit)
Give me equal rights and justice
Me no want no benefit
For it's the old strategy they use
Down in the dungeon
The same dirty old strategy they
Use down in the dungeon
And as for the woman part of it
If short like a one foot rule
Nobody can stand up all baby born under dat
(Ya a hear me man)
Man, know yourself now
They refuse to ask me my
Name upson the slave shp
Their minds told them to call
Me nigga and that was
The end of it (A who name so?)
There is no dignity you don't know my name
(You can't respect I)
It take more intelligency to find
Out my real name
But if you see what went down
Down in the dungeon even in the sea
If you see what went on, on the slave ship
Even on the journey
Man get dead and beaten and
Them throw him overboard
Woman skin never get to
Deliver their nine month through
Children born under the agony of knife
Father see children and cannot
Even own their wives
Equal rights and justice stand for
All right in the dungeon
And yet them rub it off
And show me another something
Yet them a polish it from my eyes
Show me another something
So Mr chin, how him want him titty
Indian men want him Hindustani
But them beat our language from you and me
What a slavery! What happen to he, she
You and me they beat us in slavery
And want us to be quiet under captivity
(It can't gwaan so- You mad?)
Finish it
