Insurrection Chant - Beefeater (1992)

Listen to my rebellion chant
I feel Goodwill for all mankind
A simple message militant
Of great import in trying times
Dem gon' fall down on me for this
But Sweet Truth guard my heart & mind

I got a force I'll not betray
Just that it's pulling me strong, but
If you get me going your evil way
Don't drive me wrong, push me to wrong
I say you'll regret the day
You mischanneled this power

And when your war's begun
Don't trust me with your gun
'Cause if you arm me-
I'd just as soon shoot you, you see
You want to send me to the front
Assign an enemy
You messin' with some heavy stuff
Don't trust my loyalty

Over the years you've lied to me
Stolen more than you could ever need
And baffled me with your selfish greed
Your country don't mean much to me
In fact instead of reverence
And pride in your democracy
You've generated something like
Hate for your dishonesty

And now you want to mobilize
A million misled youth against
Some enemy that you devised
Don't trust our loyalty
You've got some madness on your hands
But I'm governed by love
I use my rage in a righteous way
Inna de eyes of HIM above

You've got some madness on your hands
Inow I ask of you....
Don't fuck my sensibilities
You'll crack this boy in two

You get me going your evil way
Youd best stop trusting me
You get me going your evil way
I'll choose my enemy

If you give me a gun
I know that that's wrong
You tell me to spill
My brother's blood and kill-
You not proving yourself
Favorable in mine eyes
You always lie to me
Live by indecency
Now you want me to lay
Down my life and slay-
Some brother I don't even know
For your country I spurn
You preach criminality
In the highest degree
Don't give me ideas
Don't plant your evil seed in me
Or youll release some real fury
But driven not by love, you see
But the force you force on me
Dem call it hate, and that it be

You get me going your evil way
Don't trust my loyalty
You get me going your evil way
I'll choose my enemy

Swing low sweet cherry-blossom-
I may lose my life to thee
Oka, O God
