Lyrics
Uh-huh
Indigenous people of the planet
There you go
Hey, Babylon, stop cut off the youths dem locks
It's against their culture, that's a natural fact
Stop cut off the youths dem wool
A so you set your system wild, take Black people for a fool, eh?
Stop cut off the youths dem locks
It's against their culture, that's a natural fact
Stop cut off the youths dem wool
A so you set your system wild, take Black people for a fool, eh?
I'm a natural human being
I'm from a good family, and I'm green
Conquering lion, red, gold, and green
Rastafari, the black man supreme
Remember when you raided Jerusalem
Killed my people and stole all what belongs to them
Who you did not torture, you raped and you hung
Please don't be offended when you hear this song, hey
Stop cut off the youths dem locks
It's against their culture, that's a natural fact
Stop cut off the youths dem wool
A so you set your system wild, take Black people for a fool, eh?
Stop cut off the youths dem locks
It's against their culture, that's a natural fact
Stop cut off the youths dem wool
Grown men a ya shantay, a ya bingay
Stole our universities books of old
Our Hebrew tablets, our cuneiform scroll
Millions of artifacts all filled with gold
No, you vexed because I won't sell my damn soul
Don't you no mind, it's not right
Why you trust a man you wanna fight?
That's where the scissors and cut off mi light
Cut off mi water, tell me, how you go survive?
We were born free and equal
We tore hell to the side
We're gonna stand, even if we have to fight
Stop cut off the youths dem locks
It's against their culture, that's a natural fact
Stop cut off the youths dem wool
I saw you set a evil system taking people for food
Stop cut off the youths dem locks
Hey, hey, and the doctors knew better
If you ain't growing then you'll see
You're a living temple, a living tree, a living being
Yeah, kind of living person
Hey, stop cut off the youths dem locks
Hey, watch it, you know
