Talking Drums

Freedom of speech is what the people beseech
So roll the drums and let the lion unleash
Cause I wanna send a message to the people with my talking drums
Talk to them drums

Chorus:
Congo man roll the drums and let them play
The world hafi go know this Ya Rasta dee jay
Roll the drums and let them play
There is a few things the Prezident have to say

Them hafi tell me say terrible
But me nah chat this one ya in a parable
Politicians a behave too horrible
And I have to let the people know the truth
With them lies and them bag of promises
From Revelation back to Genesis
Nuff people get mix up in a politics
Then them hafi split and leave them premises
I witness friends all a turn enemies
Brothers and sisters in malices
You Mr. Tie and Mr. Jacket with the V and the fist
To society you are nothing but a menace

Chorus

Them hafi tell me say me terrible
But me nah chat this one ya in a parable
Politicians a behave too horrible
And I have to let the people know the truth
Them build the system
For us to be the victim
Dig hole and no remember fi dig two
And when the ghetto youths them react to the system
Them become a victim of the system too
Them bring the coke ya so fi sell it
And them don't care who want to buy it
But when them hear say them daughter a take it
Upon the ghetto youth them want to put all the blame
Them bring the gun ya so come issue it
And them don't care who want to bust it
But when them hearsay them son dead by it
Upon the ghetto youths them want to put all the blame
