This morning I woke up in a curfew
Oh God, I was a prisoner too
Could not recognize the faces standing over me
All dressed in uniforms of brutality
How many rivers do we have to cross
Before we can talk to the boss?
All we've got, it seems we have lost
We must have really paid the cost
That's why we're going to be burnin' and lootin' tonight to survive
Burnin' and lootin' tonight, save my baby
Burnin' all pollution tonight, what did you say?
Burnin' all illusion tonight, eh
Give me the food and let me grow now
Let the Roots Man take the gold
'Cause all them drugs gon' make you slow
It's not the music from the ghetto, eh
We're weeping and we wailin' tonight
Weeping and wailin' tonight
Weeping and wailin' tonight
Weeping and wailin' tonight, eh
