Wyclef Jean - WHO GAVE THE ORDER lyrics

Wyclef Jean feat. Buju Banton

wHO GAVE THE ORDER

The Preacher's Son (2003)

I'm Buju Banton with The Preacher's Son

Who gave the orders

For them to go, alright

Who gave the orders

Martin was shut down, alright

Who gave the orders

To drop the bomb, we wanna know

Who gave the orders

No refugees across the borders, hey

Questions asked with no response

(Who's gonna answer)

Where did all these guns come from

(Who's gonna answer)

Feeding lies to our daughters and sons

(But they will have to have to answer)

Then what you gonna do when the Rastaman comes

(Where you gonna run for cover)

Lookin' through window of my irie eyes

On the city filled with lies

‘Cause hurtin' the people workin' so hard

Doin' whatever it takes to get by

Then I look at myself and realize

That I was put here for a reason

Lord knows I've done my best and I've tried

We gon' keep tryin'

Who gave the orders

For them to go, Lord, no

Who gave the orders

Martin was gunned down, oh

Who gave the orders

To drop the bomb, my God

Who gave the orders

No refugees across the borders, hoo

Questions asked with no response

(Who's gonna answer)

Where did all these guns come from

(Who's gonna answer)

Feeding lies to our daughters and sons

(But they will have to have to answer)

Well, what you gonna do when the Rastaman comes

(Where you gonna run for cover)

Well, what you gonna do, what you gonna do, what you gonna do

Incarcerate a million and only free few

What ??? it shall be done to you

Open up your eyes and you will see the full view

Work all day and you can't get a raise in pay

Civil bodies been taken away

I wonder what the voice of the people have to say

Stand up and defend your rights today

Who gave the orders

For them to go, oh

Who gave the orders

Martin was gunned down, oh

Who gave the orders

To drop the bomb, alright

Who gave the orders

No refugees across the borders, well

Questions asked with no response

(Who's gonna answer)

Where did all these guns come from

(Who's gonna answer)

Telling lies to our daughters and sons

(But they will have to have to answer)

Then what you gonna do when the righteous comes

(Where you gonna run for cover)
