Lyrics
We know the system does exist
So we haffi find a way fi go round it
Flex every muscle, yeah
Cah we haffi try a tuff component
Understand that self-belief
Is the most crucial component
Give a man the tools he needs
To overcome a difficult opponent
So when it fall to the dirt and crumbles
There'll be words spoken in condolence
While the people shall stand in victory
Reminiscing 'bout those stolen moments
So throw down your arms and come
Raise every voice into the sky
Let's murder them with love
And not some futile battle cry
Do no rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
If you believe in the words of our prophets
You done know 'bout bigger judgement
So the life dem a take we fi fuckery, star, that nuh make no sense
Ghetto youth a make each other fallen soldiers
When they could be standing as brothers
No one can hear what you really mean
As the nails hit the board box cover
So if you find it hard to trust in your heart
Just think of what you're making
If there's a choice to live or rest in peace
I know which one I'm taking
So throw down your arms and come
Raise those voices to the sky
Let's murder them with love
And not some futile battle cry
Do no rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
Part it up and go scrape on clean
No rise the machine
Blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
One conscious message spoken by millions
Babylon can't silence or drown dem
Kingdoms must rise and dynasties fall
As night must follow the morning
Flex every muscle, yeah
Because a new era's dawning
Put down the strap and go find new tools
Do you not hear the revolution calling?
So when they fall to the dust and crumble
You can say you played a part
While the people should stand in victory
With their hands upon their hearts
So throw down your arms and come
Keep those voices to the sky
Let's murder them with love
And rest that futile battle cry
So do no rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
Part it up and go scrape on clean
No rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
Oh nah nah nah nah nah
Oh nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Oh nah nah nah nah nah
Oh nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Oh nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Rest that battle cry
Oh nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Oh I
You got to be conscious, yeah
Do no rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
Do no rise the machine
And blame it on the streets 'cause they're mean
