Mental Chains Lyrics


Intro:
Blessed
Emperor Seassie I surely have done
About the welfare and prosperity of I and I people
But know yourself black people
Judgement
Verse 1:
Don't do on pretending to be someone you can not
Live according and you know as to want
Love and inity is the only thing we've got
Jah prepare us to meet all your onslaught
Have you heard of Ethiopia the purest land thereof, thereof ?
Children, Babylon will be burning with flames from the sun
Unnuh might think a fun, nuh badder run
Mi hear Selassie I and their coward tongue
Them war and strive and blood feast
Soon your time to preach

Give Selassie I the praise
Or else you're punish as the beast
Black people trod up inna the East
Chorus:
Babylon your mental chains break
For Ethiopians progress ourself, we educate
Well a lightning, not a earthquake
Babylon your mental chains break
Black people go home, for righteousness sake
Verse 2:
The preaching is over, what's your actions to this?
So land up inna them land, nothing you have accomplished
Them inna them computer age, children beware of it
Because everything, everything becomes cybernetic
Repatriation, we endeavour, we'll all make it
Too much inna Babylon, that is too much for your kit
Computer is them world, them number is six six six
That's the mark of the beast, look out for micro-chip
Chorus
Verse 3:
A lava a no earthquake
Rasta is the head needless to be afraid
A nuff a them curse the Rasta-man, and run gone shave
A nuff them Babylon program as them slave
Them run Emmanuel, sey a Selassie I the youths fi praise
Chorus / Repeat Verse 1

Sizzla Kalonji (real name Miguel Orlando Collins) is a Jamaican reggae musician. He was born on 17 April 1976, in St Mary, Jamaica, of devout Rastafari parents and raised in August Town. He is unusually prolific, even by Jamaican standards. Sizzla has worked with such artists as Mobb Deep.

Sizzla, along with reggae recording artists such as Capleton, Buju Banton, and Anthony B, are credited with leading a movement toward a re-embracement of Rastafarian values in contemporary reggae music by recording material which is concerned primarily with spirituality, social consciousness, explores common themes, such as Babylon's corrupting influence, the disenfranchisement of ghetto youth, oppression of the black nation and Sizzla's abiding faith in Jah and resistance against perceived agents of oppression. Sizzla has over 40 full completed albums sold in record stores to date, the most popular which have been "Black Woman & Child" and "Da Real Thing" on the Digital B label, "Praise Ye Jah" on Xterminator, and "Rise to the Occasion" on Greensleeves.

Recently, however, he has come under fire for the homophobic content of many of his lyrics, and the advocacy of violence against gays.
