Capleton – Throw Us Down Lyrics

Reggae

Talking to the presidents and the mayors
Yo, huh
Rastafari is the ultimate
Me a tell dem say again
Hey, woah, woah, woah
You a hear me?
Nah one ya dem

All dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down
Nuff fire you fi light, they cannot hold us down
All dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
Whole of dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down

Yo

Well again
Jah bless we with the powers and strength
Give we days with length
Jah Jah bless we with nuff confidence

So we parents can be content
Pay the bills, pay the rent
Every cent
Well Babylon say dem waan touch mi pocket
But it never make sense
Still a defend the woman dem and shout mi reference
Warm to the old age and the children
That's why the fire really haffi set
And say again
Cho!

All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
All dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down
Nuff fire you fi light, they cannot hold us down
All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Care wha' dem a write, they cannot hold us down
See say dem a fight, they cannot hold us down

Alright then
Whoa, again
Well, I'm talking to the mayors
Bun the shackles and the chain

Call the youth dem fi free us

Free like the bird dem inna the trees
So, me go so ask the whole of dem weh fear me see us
Which part?
Corruption and evil dem a sponsor
So, me ask mi question and mi say, "me waan the answer"

Tell dem say, "nuh"
Nuh bother stir up mi anger
And mind me haffi draw fi mi drum and clap mi banja

How the people dem fuck and still a fight 'gainst the ganja?
Bare ass woman me have yah pon mi veranda
Nah stop hail up Suzie and Sandra
Yo, make the wicked man nuh stop from wonder
Say again
Cho!

All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
All dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
All wha' dem a write, they cannot hold us down
Nuff of dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
All wha' dem a do, they cannot hold us down
All wha' dem a say, they cannot hold us down
Nuh care wha' dem a do, they cannot hold us down

So, dem cyan hold we down
'Cause Emperor Selassie lift the youth dem from the slum
And tell the ghetto youth dem say fi beat the Naya drum
One day
Salvation, mi say, it must come

One day
Repatriation must come
One day
Liberation must come
Nuh bother take it fi no fun
Me don't waan your gun
Me don't waan your coke
Me don't waan your rum

If you diss the fireman, a pure fire a go bun
Judgement
Well, mi say lightning a come
So mi say again
Cho!

All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down
Nuff of dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down

Nuff of dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
All dem a hype, they cannot hold us down
Dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
Nah live right, they cannot hold us down
Nuff of dem a fight, they cannot hold us down
