Iron Bars lyrics with English Translations
What am I doing behind these iron bars?
Never robbed nor killed, never done no one harm
You put me in shackles, you place I in chains
Said I'll never see the outside again, oh
Yeah Yeah
I'm a prisoner locked up for what Freedom of speech, ain't that all we've got Wounded pride my head held up high Rebels for life, we rebel for the right
Let me out, let me out, I'm an angry lion Let me out, let me out, I'm an angry lion Let me out, let me out, I'm an angry lion Let me out, let me out, oh, you crazy mother
Hey yo, listen Took my freedom, my honour, my pride To provide for my family, I tried Gots to prepare, 'cause listen we's here for the ride Vision's blocked 'cause we locked inside These iron bars took my freedom, my honour, my pride To provide for my family, I tried Gots to prepare, 'cause listen we's here for the ride Vision's blocked 'cause we locked inside
Yo, I was caught in the mix with nowhere to go Rent need to be paid, things moving slow I just want to get a deal and spit this flow See ain't that the dream to live well and get dough You looking for a change, man, there ain't no changing This money, this gun, this drug exchanging And if you got seeds that makes you go even harder If it ain't for them, man, then why even bother
You must think say man a sprat Ain't no back and belly rat Well, man a lion, yeah You mus'a think say man a sprat Don't play no back and belly rat Well, man a lion, yeah Man a lion
Yeah, uh huh - yeah, hey yo, listen Took my freedom, my honour, my pride To provide for my family, I tried Gots to prepare, 'cause listen we's here for the ride Vision's blocked 'cause we locked inside These iron bars took my freedom, my honour, my pride To provide for my family, I tried Gots to prepare, 'cause listen we's here for the ride Vision's blocked 'cause we locked inside
Yo! Wanna take away my freedom, wanna take away my life Lock me up, fi what? Likkle sensimilia and a knife So who a go feed mi youth dem eeh, who go care mi wife You a gwaan like ghetto people n'have no rights Yow, you better let me out or else we gonna bruk out a here Ghetto pickney we a go load dem in a truck out a here You see any Rasta youth an' need to puck out a hair You luck out a here, you got to duck out a here You tek way every cent and every buck out a here Lock we up in a yu prison fi wi work out a here We a go bruk down all the wall and get the f#@! out a here Blaze it!
