Oh what a place to call home
This is not a place for me
Thats not where I wann a be (repeat)
I wanna be ina the hills where the birds dem singing
Not ina the city where the bells keep ringing

Sit down ina dem tower and champagne spilling
A who dem want devoyer oh what a sin ting

Just another day when I came in town
I was walking and talking with one of my girls`
And she told me that, her life ain't right
You see she's taking for granted all the treasures
That life give
She say things not the same as they use to be
So many of dreams came not to reality
And as she stands there what a poor sad sight to see
She say's this really how my life suppose to be
[Chorus:]
Good days come and good days go
Bad days come and bad days go
Good days come and good days go
Bad days come and bad days go
I remember my girl some years ago
Pregnant at 17, didn't know til the fourth month
Her life changed fast cuz her man long time left her
And she was alone with a baby girl
She stop having dreams and she cries
Still was a child responsible for a new life
The time was so hard she had to be strong
And she knew she had to carry on
Cuz life goes on
[Chorus]
How could you know the good days
If you ain't seen no bad days
Everyday won't be the same
How could you know the good times
If you ain't seem no bad times
Everything is gon be fine

Why are you so ungrateful
You nuh see that Jah give we life after all
Check yourself before you wreck yourself
Me see that Jah Jah give we life after all
Still none a dem nuh give no thanks at all
Dem think dem a rise me see dem a fall

How long you want to go run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal
and every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do
and make your life one a the real
How you fi expect love and you still a glorifie the gun
How you want clarity if acoke you nuh stop bun
Your dirty lifestyle nuh give you no way to turn
you still nuh realize that you wrong
After you come out of your church you beat your babymother down
and then you tell her you're sorry but your head did full a rum
she couldn't tek your excuse and your flattering tongue
that's why she left you today and still a ask
How long you want to go run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal
and every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do
and make your life one a the real
Dem say dem a the dolphin but me see dem a the shark
dem stand ina the spotlight and live in the dark
claim say dem grounded but me see dem a skylark
so to me dem can't talk
In this time and this ages man hafi be smart
think before you talk and watch the road wha' you a walk
from you look ina your conscience you can't miss the mark
And make a joyful sound unto the Lord
How long you want to go run away
Run away from yourself you nuh see that truth ago reveal
and every day you got to pray - well that you fi go do
and make your life one a the real
Nuff a dem me see dem can teach
Dem hufi go back a school so a no me dem can teach
A fi dem dirty talk dem call it freedom of speech
Me wonder who dem try reach
Righteousness uno fi go check it
Golong and do some good ina Your life wickedness uno fileft it
cleanheart always will make it
and from you see a chance ina your life
you better take it nuh reject it

Stranded in Babylon - branded a fool
You're wrapped up in troubles
and you're laced with confusion too
they take the chains from your hands
put them in your pockets to hold you down
they take the chains from your feet
put them in your pockets to crump your style
working yourselves to death for the things
you really don't need
you're bawling for mercy ans you crucify the dread
You're running away to hell
but you can't run away from yourself [repeat]
[Chorus:]
Stranded, stranded ina babylon, yeah
stranded, stranded in babylon
Stranded, stranded ina babylon, yeah
stranded, stranded in babylon
Living this life of illusion I can't take it no more
economical slavery I can't take it no more
I've got to light up my chalice
to drive the devil away
yes I've got to light up my chalice to keep on high
[Chorus]
Opressa man without oppology

Some bwoy must be sick ina dem
head/
Burn down bridges and build walls
instead/
And a pier badness dem spread/
But me know that one day pon
Babylon it ago dread/
Chorus:
Leave us alone/
Everything we build up see dem
want trample down/
Da one without a sin hafi cast the
first stone/
dem canґt do it at all-no-dem ina
dread man zone/
Da one ya name another riot/
Babylon - we spot dem up pon dem
slim fast diet/
Dem want kill we tune dem want we
quit/
But we ago slue dem dis time like
David slue Goliath/
Dem take the maximum and then
give we the minor/
And Babylon have dis ya world upon
a timer/
Fi all these guns and all these wars
dem a the designer/
we brok Berlin down now we brok
China/
Chorus:
Leave us alone/
Everything we build up see dem
want trample down/
Da one without a sin hafi cast the
first stone/
dem canґt do it at all-no-dem ina
dread man zone/
Fi go diss Jah righteous youths you
make a mistake/
Now the mark is upon you: you just
canґt escape/
And you seeking now and when and
where to my grade/
But Jah is wathching you above the
high grate/
None a your daughters nor your
nees could ever be my date/
Ina your conference ina your fear
you uuh see my face/
Canґt make no leggo beast come tek
my place/
You nuh go see me ina no disgrace/
Chorus:
Leave us alone/
Everything we build up see dem
want trample down/
Da one without a sin hafi cast the
first stone/
dem canґt do it at all-no-dem ina
dread man zone/
You a do your thing and me a do
mine/
I a chant and sing you a do crime/
chanting pages of reality you a do
ryme/
you spread me name over the
internet but to me that is fine/
But still dem canґt stop Jah youths
from shine/
Jah Jah light it shine so bright it can
be seen by the blind/
We plant the seed and watch it get
nutered by time/
And put some love ina hearts of
mankind/
Chorus:
Leave us alone/
Everything we build up see dem
want trample down/
Da one without a sin hafi cast the
first stone/
dem canґt do it at all-no-dem ina
dread man zone/
