Wyclef Jean - Diallo lyrics
feat. MB^2, Yossou N'Dour) [Wyclef as Amadou] Boy I am so tired I'll be glad when I get inside the house Oh, I dropped my keys Oh what tis bright light? My God they must gonna rob me Who these people with them all at they gonna rob me I'm gonna take out my wallet to make sure they just get the money Nothing else.. (??) Oh it's the police (whew) I feel so much better I will show them, I have my ID so they know I am good people [followed by a rapid flurry of gunshots] [Wyclef Jean] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil for thou art with me thou ride with me J-J-Jah! Ras-tafari I can't forget you knotty dreads, y'all up in here I gotta respect that, youknowhatI'msayin? Night is in the air Enemy.. on the borderline Who'll be the next to fire forty-one shots by Diallo's side? You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir You guys are vampires in the middle of the night Suckin on human blood Is that your appetite? You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir Have you ever been shot forty-one times? Have you ever screamed and no one heard you cry? Have you ever died only so you can live? Have you ever lived only so you can die again, then be born again from these enemies, on the borderline Who'll be the next to fire forty-one shots by Diallo's side? You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir You guys are vampires in the middle of the night Suckin on human blood Is that your appetite sir? You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir Diallo, Diallo - similar to Steven Biko Diallo, Diallo - you told me the murder was an error Diallo, Diallo - but every man will be judged Diallo, Diallo - according to his words Have you ever been held against your will? Taken to a dark place where not even scientists can reveal? So what is for Ceasar let it be for Ceasar Cause we don't want no peace We want equal rights and justice.. for Diallo, Diallo - similar to Steven Biko Diallo, Diallo - you tell me that the murder was an error Diallo, Diallo - but every man will be judged Diallo, Diallo - according to his words You know what? You told me - that I wouldn't understand man Tonight some cry - in the streets a burial Survival of the fittest - only the strong will survive How can I survive - with forty-one shots by my side? You guys are murderers in the middle of the night Killin innocent people is that your appetite? Ohhh You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir You guys are vampires in the middle of the night Suckin on human blood Is that your appetite? You said he reached sir but he didn't have no piece sir But now he rest in peace sir in the belly of the beast sir - lick a shot for Diallo, Diallo - similar to Steven Biko Diallo, Diallo - I can hear your spirit callin, I can hear it Diallo, Diallo - Ten thousand chariots with no riders Diallo, Diallo - They on they way to America, I hear the tribe singin They're sayin - Diallo Diallo, tuye' Diallo [14X] Se menm jen yo te tuye Matim Luther King Amadou Diallo..
