Handsworth Revolution lyrics with English Translations
I say: The people of Handsworth
Know that one hand wash the other (so they say)
So, let's join hands my bredren
Make the way for our children (our children, our children)
And their children (their children, their children)
Ensuring that they get life's fair share of, equality..
Doesn't justice stand for all? Doesn't justice stand for all? Doesn't justice stand for all mankind? We find society putting us down Crowning us, crowning us, crowning us, crowning us A place of evil, oh, oh Handsworth means us the black people Handsworth means us the black people We're talking now, speaking Jah Jah language!
It's a long, long way we're coming from To send this message across, across Its been hidden, forbidden, concealed, unrevealed Its got to come out In the open that
Babylon is falling! Babylon is falling!
It was foolish to build it on the sand Handsworth shall stand, firm - like Jah rock - fighting back We once beggars are now choosers, no intention to be losers Striving forward with ambition And if it takes ammunition We rebel in Handsworth revolution
Dread town, dread town, dread town Dread town, dread town, dread town
Dread we are for a cause, deprived of many things Experienced phoney laws, hatred Babylon brings We know what you got to offer, we know what's going on Don't want no favours, 'cause there is still hunger Innocent convicted, poor wage, hard labour Only Babylon prospers and humble suffer They are brothers in south of Africa One black represent all, all over the world
Can't bear it no longer, blessed with the power Of Jah Creator, we will get stronger And we will conquer And forward ever, and backward never Handsworth Revolution Handsworth Revolution Handsworth Revolution Revo- Revo- Revolution Revo- Revo- Revolution Revo- Revo- Revolution Revo- Revo- Revolution Revo- Revo- Revolution
