Groundation - Wish Them Well Lyrics

We want to be free
But not only for we Jah
We want to see
If only to be free Jah

And what if they were happier when they were wrong?
Tell them all about your hell yeah
If only to see…blinded by your failures

Oh Jah see them, dancing, loving the children’s heart
As they’re beating towards you
As they moving towards you
Remember yourselves, in your going, coming, going
All about behaviour, dem behaviour

Sold dem soul man dem can’t see
Life they chose and no one else
I wish them heart could pay dem well, wo-oh, wo-oh
If you wish, please wish them well
Oh-yeah, oh-yeah, now

They say we’re free, but not to be free
From all of their jails yeah
We want to see and know what is their crime man
What is your main goal?

O-o-oh Lord, oh-o-oh Jah
Tell dem what’s in store (2x)
For our children, the children
And what dem got? Broken heart in hand
Trying to make sense of the world yeah,
De man a world yeah

Sold dem soul man dem can’t see, wo-oh, yeah-ah
Life they chose and no one else
I wish them heart could pay dem well, wo-oh, wo-oh
If you wish, please wish them well
Oh-yeah, oh-yeah, now

What of today? What of tomorrow?
What if them sold themselves?
Just as them come walking out
And they could not see the light
Brave and great Marcus light

Oh-oh the man a yard and gold pon a delion,
De Lord yeah
A de a man a, de a man a fling rock-stone
On a Joshua world yeah, oh

Now then if I,
Wouldn’t long to see the faces shinning sun
So I man awaiting the break storm wind,
And thunder control them
Once again a,
De man a chant as if the soldier come a talk,
But dem brought dem soldier
Longer is the day them will come to chant
Ah-a-a-a-I, de man a chant, ah-a-a-a-I, de man a chant
Ah-a-a-a-I, oh dem man a chant, ah-a-a-a-I
For long dem soul, for long dem soul
For long dem soul, for long dem soul
