The sun will smite this concrete jungle today
|
The rain will fall in Africa
|
Sunrise rising in the east
|
From where I stand
|
I see Jah moon rising right over yonder
|
From where I'm standing
|
Jah love got the groove
|
From where I'm standing
|
Jah works got the move
|
Despite the wickedness
|
Jah love got the groove
|
Despite the runnings
|
|
(chorus)
|
Rough
|
system well rough
|
Got to come
|
Well red
|
ready, red, red, red
|
|
Down in South Africa, war, war
|
War are go down there so
|
One set a man got the means and the schemes
|
The ways oppress the other one well
|
Their darkest fears soon reveal
|
I hear freedom fighters wailing in Soweto
|
Brothers let me tell you
|
I feel your pain
|
Feel your strain
|
|
chorus
|
|
Longtime we root
|
Longtime we dey ya so
|
Longtime we fighting for what
|
For what we really wanted
|
Concrete jungle, concrete jungle well ram
|
African, Blackman, Chinaman, Indian here
|
Whole lotta love
|
Look at the rainbow people out there
|
A there so we born
|
A there sow the roots now
|
With our futures hanging in despair
|
|
|
