Quincy Jones, Wyclef Jean - Many Rains Ago (Oluwa) lyrics

Screaming so loud that I’m losing my voice
Them boys they grabbed my wife
Stabbed her twice took her life
Wanna know why I got this anger
Wanna know why I keep a banger
I see that man told my daddy on tracks
Train ran him over and the
Boys don’t even look back
I got no reason to live
They just lynched my kids
Sometimes I just wish I'd jumped
Ship in the Atlantic
Then I wouldn’t have to deal whit this shit
Then I’ll woke up from the nightmare dream
Roots on my TV screen
Like Martin had a dream
All his kids and harmony

Sing it loud like a symphony sing me
That old song from many rains ago
When the rain fell down
When the rain feel down
Lost your children by the sea
Take it from the land many years ago
Goodbye mother land sing me
That old song from many rains ago
Let the rain fall down
Let the rain fall down
You are the chosen one

I got to go back to the motherland
I got to get back to the motherland
Goodbye my baby sing me
That old song from many rains ago
Let the rain fall down
Let the rain fall down
You are the chosen one
