Babylon system Lyrics
Artist(Band):Bob Marley
Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
We refuse to be
What you wanted us to be;
We are what we are:
That's the way (way) it's going to be. If you don't know!
You can't educate I
For no equal opportunity:
(Talkin' 'bout my freedom) Talkin' 'bout my freedom,
People freedom (freedom) and liberty!
Yeah, we've been trodding on the winepress much too long:
Rebel, rebel!
Yes, we've been trodding on the winepress much too long:
Rebel, rebel!

Babylon system is the vampire, yea! (vampire)
Suckin' the children day by day, yeah!
Me say: de Babylon system is the vampire, falling empire,
Suckin' the blood of the sufferers, yea-ea-ea-ea-e-ah!
Building church and university, wo-o-ooh, yeah! -
Deceiving the people continually, yea-ea!
Me say them graduatin' thieves and murderers;
Look out now: they suckin' the blood of the sufferers (sufferers).
Yea-ea-ea! (sufferers)

Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth right now!
Come on and tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Tell the children the truth;
Come on and tell the children the truth.

'Cause - 'cause we've been trodding on ya winepress much too long:
Rebel, rebel!
And we've been taken for granted much too long:
Rebel, rebel now!

(Trodding on the winepress) Trodding on the winepress (rebel):
got to rebel, y'all (rebel)!
We've been trodding on the winepress much too long - ye-e-ah! (rebel)
Yea-e-ah! (rebel) Yeah! Yeah!

From the very day we left the shores (trodding on the winepress)
Of our Father's land (rebel),
We've been trampled on (rebel),
Oh now! (we've been oppressed, yeah!) Lord, Lord, go to ...

[*Sleeve notes continue:
Now we know everything we got to rebel
Somebody got to pay for the work
We've done, rebel.]

Review about Babylon system

ras 'out of Afrika' | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/27/2008

the song jus seys it all, it sums up all e turmoil , the grief, and wat e black person hs to endure in this life w livin', a life dominated by babylon and hs tools of downpression, given e opportunity i wld mek it a universal anthem 4 all e pple o e black race, e subjugated race, i sat y big up mr marley we'll for ever feel yo profound, meaningful message in ur vibes, foreva we will seek 2 rise and transcend above eir fortified impediments



The Government system | Reviewer: John | 8/15/2008

This song should be the way thoughts of everyone in the world. The Babylon system is the government all over the world taxing, oppressing, and bankrupting everyone. This problem is worldwide and we must all REBEL!



lyrics? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/31/2007

I always thought that he was saying 'white dress', ie truth is a woman whose white dress is being soiled by lies and oppression.. who knows, maybe he really was saying that, i actually prefer it
