Текст Fire from the Gods – The Message

Yo-yo
Ya, man
You know Mersey?
Yo

I’ve heard and I’ve listened
They’ve said and they’ve repeated
Told me their truth and lies
And tried to make me eat it

Learn it
And then eventually repeat it
Like I’m a machine
A vessel for the message

I speak my mind
I use my words like a weapon
‘Dem can’t test
‘Cause I’m solid like a lion

O-oh, you hеar that revolution sound
It goes a little bit somеthing like this now

Bum de dum dum dum
To the beat of the drum
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

You think you’re teaching me violence
Jah guide I with love
You think you fill me with malice
Jah guide I with love

Bum de dum dum dum
To the beat of the drum
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the beat of the drum
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

As soon as the little yout dem come out di womb
Labeled a threat so dem deh inna di war too
Indoctrination, state education
Incarceration, paid for by corporations

I speak my mind
I use my words like a weapon
‘Dem can’t test
‘Cause I’m solid like a lion
O-oh, you hear that revolution sound
It goes a little bit something like this now

You think you’re teaching me violence
Jah guide I with love
You think you fill me with malice
Jah guide I with love

Bum de dum dum dum
To the beat of the drum
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the beat of the drum
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

We have to tell them again
We have to tell them again
I… Yo

I do defy
You’ll never deny
My time to rise
Shine a light
I swear this on my life
Your resistance to love is useless and futile
We’ll tear down the walls of the wicked and vile
Dis a one goes out to the real people dem
Keep that fist high in the air, change is coming
From London to Berlin
New York to Accra
Johannesburg to Kingston, Jamaica
ATX, stand up
Uh

You think you’re teaching me violence
Jah guide I with love
You think you fill me with malice
Jah guide I with love

Bum de dum dum dum
To the beat of the drum (To the beat of the drum)
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum (To the beat of the drum)

Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the beat of the drum (To the beat of the drum)
Bum de dum dum dum
Goes the war drum

…man blessed with the knowledge of himself and the understanding of all things around him
If you are able to live with the knowledge of yourself and with the greater knowledge of nature, you must know what is good and what is not

Know thyself
