Alborosie Tearful Days song lyrics
A desire youth
(So far)
We strong inna the Gideon, te chanting seh
The Nyahbingi bring dung Judgement inna Babylon, yo
Tearful days, inna the Gideon
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days, inna the Gideon
How dah thing yah reach so far?
Worries in the ears when the bingi fire light
Mosiah will appear like the sound in the night
Ruling lion, him no fear not a bite
Him wear dah Khaki suit and hail Far I, whoa
Their rules and lies they set in the book
Never applied to them
Send set a rule, dem break like crook
Keep we under a spell
Taser and tear gas against them own kind
Daughters and sons inna uniform
Tearful days, down inna the Gideon
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days, inna the Gideon
How dah thing yah reach so far?
Tearful days, inna the Gideon, yo
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days
How dah thing yah reach so far?
Woh! Dem cyaan fool young warriors with their legacy lies
Sit down inna parliament a write up bare lies
Cover for the KKK, cover for the CIA
The officers weh kill us, dem behind our door way
One by one dem a took out the kings
Tree by tree, no muh king for the king
Pickney fatherless, a funeral sinting
Dem waan cook white rice and a pick out black beans
Before that, bullet a go tear off unno kin
Tearful days, down inna the Gideon
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days, inna the Gideon
How dah thing yah reach so far?
Tearful days, inna the Gideon, yo
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days
How dah thing yah reach so far?
(So far)
A desire youth again
(So far)
A wha'appen to dem man yah man
A bring corruption and a kill off the youth dem
A Judgement we seh, straight!
Watch it!
Dem a war, dem a fight
Nah do anything just to make things right
A the truth, a no lie
When you're looking on the world outside
Their rules and lies they set in the book
Never applied to them
Send set a rule, dem break like crook
Keep we under a spell
Taser and tear gas against them own kind
Daughters and sons inna uniform do crime
Oh, down inna the Gideon
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days, inna the Gideon
How dah thing yah reach so far?
Tearful days, inna the Gideon, yo
Daughters and sons inna war
Tearful days
How dah thing yah reach so far?
