again...
come on sing with me
sing with me...
the strongest of all
brother Steve told the thief
I wont...
I will not participate...
there is war...
and you are the Mr...
who gives the weapons to the killers
to the rappers of the women
to general al-Basir and his men
your veto
China gives them permission
genocide is your child China....
let us say it again
we have no problem with the Chinese
ras babi loves the people
and hates the oppressors
art is the mystical thing
we will show the whole world
we will support the victims of these bloody games
in Tibet
in China
and in Burma and Darfur
the people have the right
to enjoy their living
just like you and others
why not?
with art we can say what they want
we can be their voice
we are humans
we see their suffering
we hear their screaming
the guns are shooting them
and we are the ones
who can stop China from supporting
a punch of fanatics
a punch of real lunatics
who do not care
all what they want
is attention
carry on sing it
the song for the people
with art...
we are defending the people
NO
NO
HUNDREDS OF NOS
please do not go
do not be the one
who share their guilt
do not go to China this time
do it for the sweetness of their black skin
slow down the rhythm
let the drums get in
and we all sing
in my name they have done horrible things
the people made Hitler
millions of brothers and sisters Jews have gone
just like that
he has killed millions
and our world was impotent
no words
violins and candles are taking control
innocents souls
blood and shame are covering our life
we ran from Rwanda few years back
we are ignoring the people in Palestine
let us start to show the power of art
the Rastaman says
hay mista
are you listing?
this is a pen not a gun
it is a word not a bullet
or one of your bombs
mista...
you have no heart
we know that
it is a bout the power of art
maybe...
maybe...
something is left there
in the dark
in your soul mista
it is just a call
and the strongest song
I AND I AND I
ever had
