Market Price Songtext
von Groundation

Oh, what a sad day
People sell themselves for rice and peas again
And behold there will be weeping and a wailing
Not for the lion but the lamb

There was a market price
For the human soul
To see a wrong and then not do right
The devil takes control
Please don′t judge man's soul tonight
We′re not ready, Lord
Up in Heaven all those angels ask
"Where did man's spirit go?"

It gone, it gone, it gone again
Oh, we lost, we lost again
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it′s true


Unity is the goal we seek
Divisions keeps it out of reach
And for us to be complete
Everybody standing on their own two feet

It all begins with the false pretense
That some are born to rule
Like the wolf who preys on the flock
And like sheep we act the fool
See them standing by Benito smiling
And by Hitler′s side
Wicked man play their games for power
And the people abide

Oh, we lost, we lost again
And we gone, we gone again, oh, yes
Now it's all up to you
Hard to believe but it′s true

This is not the end, you see
For I believe in prophecy
And there's a riddim inside of we
A gonna shift society
