the main ingredient - black seeds keep on growing lyrics

Loading...

[spoken]
speak, drums, tell the real story
for the people who would condemn, in slavery time, their brothers and sisters for being ignorant
listen to the story the drums tell
they say: you, black man
should love those brothers and sisters, even in death
because their valiant struggle for life, made you what you are today
so keep on growing, for them
in mind, in body, and in soul

the seed was planted in a big uncultured land (yeah)
planted by a black uncultured man (mmmm)
no one gave much thought to thе black seed (yeah)
no one seemed to carе about its need (mmmm)

oh, black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)
wooh, black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)

without water the seed just couldn’t last for long (yeah, mmmm)
so it fooled everyone and it grew up big and strong (yeah, mmmm)
it grew in soil that was so unfit to sow (yeah, mmmm)
still that black seed continued to grow (yeah, mmmm)

oh, black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)
wooh, black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)
you got, i got it, oh yeah (you got soul, i got soul, all of god’s people got soul)
you got, i got it, oh yeah (you got soul, i got soul, all of god’s people got soul)

planted so close together, they could hardly breathe
exposed to the weather, it’s hard to believe
how a little black seed could stand up against the pressure
and come out smelling sweet and looking fresher

black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)
wooh, black seeds keep on growing (black seeds keep on growing, black seeds keep on growing)

you got, i got it, oh yeah yeah (you got soul, i got soul, all of god’s people got soul)
you got, i got it, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah (you got soul, i got soul, all of god’s people got soul)

make the man who sowed the first seed feel proud of you
make the man who passed hereafter feel proud too
just push together harder and the battle will be won
go back in time four hundred years and see what they have done
don’t let ’em down

(black seeds keep on growing) oh, let the people know
(black seeds keep on growing) this ain’t no time to be slow
(black seeds keep on growing) you need to be standin’ tall
(black seeds keep on growing) and don’t you ever fall
(black seeds keep on growing) don’t let ’em down, no, don’t let ’em down y’all
(black seeds keep on growing) no, don’t let ’em down
(black seeds keep on growing) no, no no, don’t let ’em down
(black seeds keep on growing) keep on growing
(black seeds keep on growing) oh, keep on growing, yeah, keep on growing y’all
(black seeds keep on growing) no
