"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!
