Children, of Israel
This is the time, we must come together
Live in unity!
Are we not the sons of slaves?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are)
Are we not the son of slaves? Yeah!
Are we not the children that run away from plantations?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are)
Are we not the children of Israel?
They took us away, from Africa land
Brought us down here, in Babylon
Now we all like, a roaring lion
Jah high, Jah high. Yeah
Are we not the sons of slaves?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are) Help me now, now
Are we not the children that run away from plantations?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are)
Are we not gonna get no freedom? Help me now, now
How long will it take you, to give us just a little justice?
Took us away on a rocking ship
And that would be heavy, ginnal ship!
All we could feel was the rocking whip
Jah high, Jah high. Yes
Are we not the sons of slaves?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are)
Are we not the children of Israel?
(Yes we are, I said yes we are)
(..)
They took us away, from Africa land
Brought us down here, in Babylon
Now we all like, a roaring lion
Jah high, Jah high. Yeah
Mister big man
How long will it take you, to give us justice?
Are we not the sons of slaves?
Are we not the children of Israel? Help me now, now
How long, how long, will it take you?
(Why oh why, why oh why
People like you, have to treat us like this?)
