400 Years Songtext
von Jesse Royal

Huh
400 years and counting (counting)
400 years and counting (counting)
400 years and counting (counting)
And it still don′t add up (it don't add up)
Get up and do something
Don′t be counterproductive
All the people really want is peace and equality (hey hey)
Talking 'bout reparation, for the Black Nation
Africa awaits and creates us (hey hey hey hey)
Black sweat and tears (hoo hoo),
For all these years
ripening the fruits of evolution oh (hey hey hey)


500 years and counting (counting)
500 years and counting (counting)
500 years and counting (counting)
And it still don't add up (it don′t add up)
Get up and do something
Don′t be counterproductive
All the people really want is hands and our hearts together

Alright the youth say "one for all" and dem say "all for one"
Nah go betray Africa and inna houseman shrine
The pressure dem apply that one inna diamond
You will love to see the sub size in a pen diagram
Like a bully from a quarter, mister Bulls and I'm done
Change up your wellingness and maintain their cans
When walk ova, we like no bridge and Cow
Jah Jah made with straw

600 years and counting (600 years and counting)
600 years and counting (600 years and counting)
600 years and counting (600 years and counting)
And it still don′t add up (it don't add up)
(Nah Nah Nah No)
Get up and do something
Don′t be counterproductive
All the people really want is peace and equality (hey hey)


Alright dem lace up the woods get ready affi try,
In the name of love by the grace of God
One by one mi ah step forward
Man in the Babylon ah live to up, why?
Till the silent pain reduce still not getting the rich men views
Words be cause man a tell di truth
Dem a sent eartime and left for you

You think you know me
you will be aware of how it feels seh we are home
Feel seh we are homie
But that if you ah a fi scar some face like a Tony
Before lights and land ah push all night 'til the morning

700 years and counting (counting)
700 years and counting (counting)
700 years and counting (counting)
And it still don′t add up (it don't add up)
Let us go, free up the shackle now now now now now oh
Let us go, free up the shackle now now now now now oh
