Jesse Royal - 400 Years
400 years and counting (counting)
400 years and counting (counting)
400 years and counting
And it still don't add up (it don't add up)
Woii, woii, woii...
Get up and do something
Don't be counter-productive
All the people really want is peace and equality-y-y-y
Talking 'bout reparation
For the black nation
Africa awaits all creators, oh yeah, hey, hey, hey
Black sweat and tears (shoo hoo)
For all these years (shoo hoo, ooh)
Ripening the fruits of evolution, oh yeah, hey, hey, hey
Huh!
500 years and counting (counting)
500 years and counting (counting)
500 years and counting
And it still don't add up (it don't add up)
Woii, woii, woii...
Get up and do something (oh, get up)
Don't be counter-productive
All the people really want is hands and our hearts together
Alright
The youth say "one for all" and dem say "all for one"
Nah go betray Africa and build no house 'pon sand
The pressure dem apply that one inna diamond
You would love to see the substance in my Venn diagram
Like a bullet from a quarter, me say Bulls a London
Change up your wellingness and maintain seconds
When walk over, we like no bridge and cow
Jah Jah made we strong
Huh!
600 years and counting (600 years and counting)
600 years and counting (600 years and counting)
600 years and counting
And it still don't add up (it don't add up)
Nah, nah, nah, no
Get up and do something (oh, get up)
Don't be counter-productive
All the people really want is peace and equality-y-y-y
Alright
Dem lace up the woods cah we ready fi trod
In the name of love, by the grace of God
One by one we a step forward, man inna Babylon a live to apart
Till the silent pain reduce
Still not getting the respect due
Words be cause man a tell the truth
Dem a sent eartime and left for you
Huh!
You think you know me
You will be aware of how it feels say we are homie
Wonder if me haffi scar some face like a Tony
Before lights and land a push all night till the morning
Wha' you mean?
700 years and counting (counting)
700 years and counting, whoa oh
700 years and counting
And it still don't add up (it don't add up)
Let us go, free up the shackle now now now now now, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Free up the shackle now now now now now, oh
