Ras Shiloh - child of a slave

Land Of Love riddim (Penthouse Records - 1996)  


they celebrate now yeah
they celebrate now

winning without fight is best
lover's of war will perish
i know
leadership don't mean damnation
love don't mean retaliation
if we don't stop the wars
who's gonna be at fault

hip hip hooray they celebrate
eat caviar drink champagne
hip hip hooray they celebrate
at the death of the child of a slave
child of a slave

remember
our forefather's tears
the lives which were lost
for us to see peaceful years
when shot stop
who remains flat

hip hip hooray they celebrate
eat caviar drink champagne
hip hip hooray they celebrate
at the death of the child of a slave
child of a slave

unity only accepted goals
conscience must decide the destiny of souls
wheels running down a hill needs no push
works of the kkk shouldn't be done by us
instead of love you hate
so they jump

hip hip hooray they celebrate
eat caviar drink champagne
hip hip hooray they celebrate
at the death of the child of a slave
child of a slave

leadership don't mean damnation
love don't mean retaliation
if we don't stop these wars
who's gonna be at fault

hip hip hooray they celebrate
eat caviar drink champagne
hip hip hooray they celebrate
at the death of the child of a slave
child of a slave

remember
our forefather's tears
the lives which were lost
for us to see peaceful years
when shot stop
who remains flat

hip hip hooray they celebrate
eat caviar drink champagne
hip hip hooray they celebrate
at the death of the child of a slave
