Gentleman - Church And State lyrics

Chorus:

Devilstation they intensify

Church and state they can't satisfy

While the children still a multiply

I see babymothers cry

While the babyfathers die

Break my backbone while you sit down on your throne

You must living ina twylight zone

It's a good thing I man tuff like a rock stone

Never gonna hear me weap you'll never gonna hear me mone

Creating all the circumstance

Still you're claiming that a you the one who nuh response

When the revolutionary man a take his stand

You Mr. Jacket and tie it nuh make sense you run

Chorus

Promises and lies is what a gwaan

These are the things righteous people a scorn

Prophets a ring the alarm

Tell the heads of government fi cool and fi calm

And if you live by what you should

And you doing what you could

There'll be no bad but good, no no

Living out in Hollywood

Buh care about no flesh and blood

You sink ina the mod

Chorus

You only govern with your weapon

But dem ya things seh we nuh pon

Man a no stool fu you fi step pon

We age trample duppy and the demon

Nuh join dem gang and me nuh ku-klux dem clan

Listen to the words of a living man

This oppression me don't understand

Are you a creature, beast are you human

Chorus

Break my backbone while you sit down on your throne

You must living ina twylight zone

It's a good thing I man tuff like a rock stone

Never gonna hear me weap you'll never gonna hear me mone

Creating all the circumstance

Still you're claiming that a you the one who nuh response

When the revolutionary man a take his stand

You Mr. Jacket and tie it nuh make sense you run

Chorus
