Groundation - Market Price lyrics
[Groundation - Market Price lyrics]
Oh, what a sad day
People sell themselves for rice
And peas again
And behold there will be
Weeping and a wailing
Not for the lion but the lamb
There was a market price, for the human soul
To see a wrong and then not do right
The devil takes control
Please don't judge man's soul
Tonight, we're not ready
Lord
Up in heaven all those angels ask
"Where did man's spirit go?"
It gone, it gone, it gone again, we lost
We lost again
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it's true
Unity is the goal we seek
Divisions keeps it out of reach
And for us to be complete
Everybody standing on their own two feet
It all begins with the false pretense
That some are born to rule
Like the wolf who preys on the flock
And like sheep we act the fool
See them standing by Benito smiling
And by Hitler's side
Wicked man play their games for power
And the people abide
Oh, we lost, we lost again
And we gone, we gone again
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it's true
This is not the end, you see
For I believe in prophecy
And there's a riddim inside of
We a gonna shift society!
People sell themselves for rice
And peas again
And behold there will be
Weeping and a wailing
Not for the lion but the lamb
There was a market price, for the human soul
To see a wrong and then not do right
The devil takes control
Please don't judge man's soul
Tonight, we're not ready
Lord
Up in heaven all those angels ask
"Where did man's spirit go?"
It gone, it gone, it gone again, we lost
We lost again
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it's true
Unity is the goal we seek
Divisions keeps it out of reach
And for us to be complete
Everybody standing on their own two feet
It all begins with the false pretense
That some are born to rule
Like the wolf who preys on the flock
And like sheep we act the fool
See them standing by Benito smiling
And by Hitler's side
Wicked man play their games for power
And the people abide
Oh, we lost, we lost again
And we gone, we gone again
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it's true
This is not the end, you see
For I believe in prophecy
And there's a riddim inside of
We a gonna shift society!
