(2) A weh dem a go do when the time comes around A weh dent a go sek Cos My people are in a mess But nobody wants to know Cos when you're down and out and oppressed You've got to fight your battles from the Lowest of the low So keep your distance and take your stance, Cos this could be your utmost chance. You've had all night and day to Consider and pray You've brought fire on my head and Now you must pay. CHORUS Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules where my people suffer... Take Rastaman culture for instance, Dem think is political joke, But we people know better then that, Cos what keeps us together is Jah Herb that we smoke I and I know the truth of it all, Cos we have smashed our heads 'gainst that wall, And now I seh we must create a scene, We must recapture our culture by any means. CHORUS Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules Babylon makes the rules where my people suffer ... Count the times we've been let down, And left us in despair, And woe betide that evil man, Who giveth not a care. You've gotta check yourself just One more time, Reassure your mind - Cos those who are chosen by the father's hand Must not get left behind. Rasta seh - guidance (4) But Backrah seh different still Babylon makes the rules but Jah love will carry I home.
