War & Friction - I-Roy
War and friction upon the land and pestilence shall walk the earth
Man it's time to open your eyes and try to live
For that's what life is worth
And if you die you shall eat dirt
Time to open up your eyes it's time to realize
Wondering if the cats's on the roof
Have got too hypnotize I don't know
Open your eyes Jah Jah children or you gonna get a blow
And everybody's gonna know
Stop fighting against each other
Stop fighting against your sister an' your brother
And each and every day I take up the Gleaner or Star
Got to put on my glasses and keep my face from too much war
Too much war
If it ain't your Idren then it's just your spar
Wonder if man gonna live down in Jamdown or go to Venus or Mars
I said live up black man say live up black man
Live up see black man black man live up
Tiddley-bop tiddley-bop
Tell it Jack say black man got to live up
Gonna stop firing off your gun
Stop bawling out for fire bun I say
Black man live up
Kinda death trap going around
Every day war killing looting
And each and everyday the same thing
But what is this
Black man know yourself no more war
Throw down your armour and stay far
I tell you no more war
No more war
Take care of your brother
Your Idren and your spar yeah
No tolerance in the neighbourhood
Nobody drinking whiskey at the bar
'Fraid even to go to the herb camp
Not even your kids can go out an' ramp
I tell you oh no That's too bad
Brothers and sisters live up
An' lick up your cup I tell ya
Say you got to live up
Stand firm and lick your cup
And never never be no dup-dup
Too much war on the land and I man can't understand
Saskatchewan I play you on the scene come down
Stand down black man know theyself
