Oh What An Oppression

Oh What An Oppression lyrics with English Translations





My forefathers came from Africa, Brought here as a slave. How can I have an Englishman's name?
The white man, the chiney man, The Indians and the Syrians, All nations have their own names.
They robbed us of our culture, They robbed us of our language, They robbed us of our women, our music taken away.
Oh why, oh why, what an oppression, oh God, oh Lord. Oh why, oh why, what an oppression.
It's more than 400 years, We're livin' in this western hemisphere, Still we just can't reach nowhere.
Babylon just have us right here, living in fear, Babylon don't even care.
They robbed us of our culture, They robbed us of our language, They robbed us of our wealth, our strength taken away.
Oh why, oh why, what an oppression, oh Jah. Oh why, oh why, what an oppression.


They robbed us of our culture, They robbed us of our language, They robbed us of our women, our music taken away.
Oh why, oh why, what an oppression, Jah Jah. Oh why, oh why, what an oppression.
It's more than 400 years, We're livin' in this western hemisphere, Still we just can't reach nowhere.
Babylon just have us right here, living in fear, Babylon don't even care..
