emmanuel jal - babylon lyrics

chorus
sister, am in babylon, brother, am in babylon, grandma, am in babylon
please forgive, me forgive me
sister, am in babylon, brother, am in babylon, grandma, am in babylon
please forgive me not returning your phone call

v1
ah no time for family, time is money
everything here moves by the clock
our cousins are only half a block, i haven’t seen them for almost a year
you will be shocked when you’ll see me, the stress is in my dread locks
broke broke, i hate to be broke. i live on credit, a soft way of telling you i’m in debt
i’ve got so many cards visa cards, mastercard, commercial credit card
i’m a hustler, victim, finding ways to survive in the system

v2
yeah i am in united kingdom. london, home of emma mccune
one of the best places to be, they have got good programs here to help refugees
like me
you see, success wouldn’t have come if i hadn’t found good people to help me here
nyakuoth, nyaruach in your prayers pray for uk
things are not ok: terrorist attack, war in iraq
there is recession; folks are losing their possessions
the pound is going down and everybody is cursing golden brown

hey oh
ni ma hanza ku fuata pessa karibu ni potea gizani mama
hela gizani britani bebanek ganah
ni ma hanza ku fuata pessa karibu ni potea gizani mama
hela gizani britani bebanek ganah

pole mama pole grandma pole dada pole dada
ewe mungu baba nicheke mkono sitaki poetea gizan babi mala
hmmn jamani hnn amani hmm duniani hmm
ona shetani ana jeribu ku zuk-ma gizani

(translation:
i have begun following money into darkness, i’m almost getting lost mama
money in the darkness in britain has k!lled human beings ,children
ey ah
sorry mama, sorry grandma sorry sister, sorry sister
oh god father hold my hand i do not want to get lost in this world, people, peace in the world. look satan want to pull me in the darkness.)
