Eddy Grant - Love Weself lyrics

I'm amazed at the plans of every group To help my people through I hear all the notes and every time I hear what we can't do Forget the tears and burn your books Not a single word is true Kings and queens of Africa You know what you have to do Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no We buy everything from everywhere Colors from red to blue We have all the raw materials To make what we want to Oh my people how they sigh Even when they feel a way Can't be pleased or satisfied With everything we got to say oh no Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no All plantations are the same So why not face the truth I a**ure all the kids of all victors You got the future but with the loot All the tears and all the tides Could never wash our fears away With all we know from all the science The question is to date Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no See the pilgrims how they play They love to play with you They create every games of every kind But to begin with not for you 400 years of genocide And even in the streets today I hear the pilgrims on the side Why the hell should we have to pay? Oh lord.. Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good Have we got no more ambition How can ev'ry our condition be so good We just have to love weself We only got to love weself oh no no no
