Buju Banton - LET MY PEOPLE GO

Go down, Moses (yeah)
Way down in Egypt's land
Tell old Pharaoh to (set the people free)
Let my people go

The whole world is in bondage
Let my people go
Tell these tyrants to let go
Let my people go
What remains they will not be able to salvage
Let my people go
They shall be riot, and rooting, and raving, and ravaged
Let my people go

They control the whole world
There's no one to stop dem
They fiddle while the world burns
Creating stress and problems, yeah
Chaos on a global scale
Were created only by a few
Nothing to do with I and I
But involve I-man and you, oh

Tribal war created for money
Let my people go
Lord, this blood march you create ain't funny
Let my people go (yeah)
What I'ma say it is so real
Let my people go
You might see my face but you never feel what I feel, nah
Let my people go (what?)

We're all in this ting together
We're all that we have, let's stay together
My people, we're all in this ting together
And we're all that we have, so let's stay together

Politicians have dem on a limb, ay-yeah
Let my people go
The foreign exchange how it came in, whoa-yeah
Let my people go
Then how much dem bring come and how much you bring?
Let my people go
To you I might not saying much
But they know I'm saying some real ting
Let my people go (whoa)

Only unity can make we open up we eyes
We have to galvanize, yes, we haffi organize
Stop swallow di narrative, di one bag a noise
Dem think seh we nuh recognize when dem a try devise
Dem always scandalize
Tell lot a lies pon we
They don't want us energized
Controlling us with lies, yeah

In the words of Marcus Mosiah
Let my people go (ooh, yeah)
Mind lightning catch the world on fire
Let my people go
If you're not ready we're gonna take it much higher
Let my people go (whoa)
Burn all weak out, burn all vampire
Let my people go

They control the whole world
There's no one to stop them
They fiddle while the world burn
Creating problems and problems, ooh, yeah
Chaos on a global scale
Were created by few, yeah
Nothing to do with I and I
But it involves I and you, eh

Tribal war created for money
Let my people go (ooh, yeah)
This blood march you create ain't funny
Let my people go (oh)
Oh, mama, oh, mommy
Let my people go
Lord, where can we feed these hungry babies?
Let my people go
