You better let go Jah Jah children Babylon
ย
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon
ย
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
Oh, what a revelation
Down here in a misty Babylon
Revolutions, demonstrations an' strikes
In all the nations, oh yeah
You found wanted by this here generation
For violating Mount Zion laws of creation (Oh yeah)
So you better let go Jah Jah children Babylon
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
ย
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
Now, Jah created man, then man made slaves
Causing this whole beautiful earth to be filled with craze
With this buying an' selling of good people as human cargo
Misty Babylon, those days are done
Just like those of King Pharaoh (Oh yeah)
So you better let go Jah Jah children Babylon
Free Jah Jah children Babylon (Oh yeah)
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon (Free them)
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
Emancipation meant freedom out of slavery
Repatriation (Yes) will bring about liberation
Messiah Jahveh, he led the way to freedom
For all oppressed people home an' abroad
They are the chosen ones
So you better let go Jah Jah children Babylon
Free Jah Jah children Babylon (Oh yeah-yeah)
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon (Free them, let them be)
Free Jah Jah children Babylon
With the whip, blood an' torture
You rob the children of their culture
An' captivating their simple minds
You have stolen their powers (Oh yeah)
With indoctrination, you have taught them a great lie
Of a kingdom way up in the sky
Where not even you can reach until the day you die
So let go Jah Jah children Babylon
ย
Free Jah Jah children Babylon (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon
ย
Free Jah Jah children Babylon (Let them be)
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon
From Cape to Cairo an' from the isles of the sea
Free Jah Jah children Babylon (From the north to the south pole)
I said to let go Jah Jah children Babylon
From the ends of the earth to Timbuktu
Let go Jah Jah children Babylon
