lyrics

(Hook – Jonathan Emile)
North, South; see what Babylon do? -- see what Babylon do
East, West; see what Babylon do? -- see what Babylon do
You can’t stop the music
You can’t stop the movement – you can’t stop the movement
You can’t stop the music

(Verse 1 – Jonathan Emile)
Nuff refugees is living everyday inside a tent
Ghetto dey have no shoes so yo dem can not pay di rent
Some sey a change has come and we look pon di president
But he is not a savior nor is he a Clark Kent
Jah children in di desert and we stay lost for day
Child soldier for the dealers and we stay ready to spray
And what I must convey is that we have gone astray
Jah children must unite without no pausing or delay
Gave AIDS to all my people with vaccine for polio
Dem causing war fi oil and jus a melt up all di snow
IMF dey steady hustling and thieving all di dough
Politican a mek money dey won’t legalize di dro
Some stay ignorant an wonder what a gwan
But every time all a ounnu hear Jonathan
I’m bringing you di fire like di Armageddon
To bun Babylon bun Babylon bun

(Verse 2 – Jonathan Emile)
The game faded like Jordan at buzzer beater
And we live it up cause we could never have done it neither
Before the stadium was close unless we was gladiators
I’ll show you the real world call me the navigator
Call me aviator cause my lens is hella fly
Inner vision like Stevie Eonder eyes
Do or die, homie need no eye
I and I testify
That these are the days and times
When they never ever giving you the time of day
So if you balling then you must be balling like castaway
Se Jon E in that basement
I mean that Jay-Den unless you talking to Will-Son
I build something, then kill something then heal something
Martin Luther King Dream
Plus there ain’t no I in team
Plus there ain’t no I in dream
Only in dreaming
So I’m scheming to heal something for real
Look through my lens to see how I feel
Emile

(Bridge – Jonathan Emile)
From the west back to the east aha
In di belly of di beast aha
Dem wan revolution
Dem wan revolution

From di north unto di south aha
What you’re hearing out their mouths aha
Dem wan liberation
Dem wan liberation, oh
