A faithful promise, yeah, is just a comfort to a fool

You gave a great speech, yeah

Then you kill them with your promises

Sufferation to the max is

The only thing that increases

How long you gonna hold the veil

Over my people?s eyes ?

How long you gonna sit over there and tell your bag a bull lies ?

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, Jah children went?

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, African dissent?

It takes a revolution sometimes to mend a solution

And it?s my conclusion it is the only solution

You sit up in your high rise yeah

Inna your jacket and your neck tie

You don't care about the sufferer?s cry

It?s time you realize

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, Jah children went

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, African dissent

How long you think you can hold the veil

Over the children eyes ?

How long can you sit over there and tell them a bag a bull lies ?

You sit up in your high rise yeah

Inna your jacket and your neck tie

You don't care about the sufferer?s cry

It?s time you realize

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, Jah children went

Ho Ho Ho Jericho, African dissent

A fateful promise, yeah, is just a comfort to a fool

How long you gonna sit over there and tell your bag a bull lies ?
