"Freedom Fighter" lyrics

"Freedom Fighter"

Hey, freedom fighter, what you're fighting for
There is no hope for Babylon no more, brotha
Don't try save the world and let them take you life away
If you're searching for freedom then follow the light, brotha
These leaders want us to believe
That they have the power to set we free
And that is how they keep us fighting
We're only free when we're united, tell me
Dear Marcus Garvey, what you're fighting for
Jah might end your life in London just before they start the next world war

Can't save nobody, oh no
If you lose your soul
You got to free yourself, oh yea
That's the only freedom you'll know
And Jah Jah give man life to live
You got to let man live
The only love that you receive is in the love you give
Freedom

When Babylon burning, I beg you nuh cry
Prophecy fulfilling in front of your eyes, brotha
I search all the cities and can't find no life
Remember, it was dry bones that Elijah revived in the valley
Let it all go up in flames
And let the righteous rise again
'Cause the ancients will agree
There is no death when you are free
Humanity, Rastafari speak for
You can't give your allegiance to governments no more

Can't save nobody, oh no
If you lose your soul
You got to free yourself, oh yea
That's the only freedom you'll know
And Jah Jah give man life to live
You got to let man live
The only love that you receive is in the love you give
Freedom

When Babylon a bun, yeah, Jah beg yuh don't cry
Prophecy a fulfill in front a dem eye
Search all the cities and I can't find nuh life
It was dry bones that Elisha revived
I mek it bun, mek it go up inna flame
'Cause these black Yankees nah call Tafari name
So I mek it bun, mek it go up inna flame and let the righteous children rise again

I'm from the concrete jungle, Jah Jah beg yuh refrain
Trod to the mountain and hear when Haile, I call yuh name
'Cause dem will trap you in the city, get you hooked on the pain
Give yuh the money, all the girls, and all the guns, and the fame
Well Babylon fight down marijuana and a promote cocaine
And mess with the food dem weh yuh eat and then dat mess with yuh brain
Man a talk to di youth, dem from Dela Vega city and Dallas lane
Trod to hills and den guh call pan Rastafari name
Don't get caught inna Babylon flame
Babylon shall go up in flames, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, brother
Sister

You can't save nobody, oh no
If you lose your soul
You got to free yourself, oh yeah
The only freedom you'll know
And Jah Jah give man life to live
So let them live
Yeah, the only love that you receive in the love you give
