I say the people of Handsworth, know that

One hand wash the other so they say

So let's join hands my bredren

Make the way for our children (our children, our children)

And their children (their children, their children)

Ensuring that they get life's fair share of...

Equality...

Doesn't justice stand for all

Doesn't justice stand for all

Doesn't justice stand for all mankind

We find society putting us down

Crowning us, crowning us, crowning us, crowning us

A place of Evil, OH, OH

Handsworth means us the Black People

Handsworth means us the Black People

We're taiklng now. Speaking Jah Jah language!



It's a long, long way we're coming from

To send this message across, across

Its been hidden, forbidden, concealed, unrevealed

Its got to come out In the open that -



BABYLON IS FALLING

BABYLON IS FALLING



It was foolish to build It on the sand

Handsworth shall stand, firm - like Jah rock

- fighting back

We once beggars are now choosers

No intention to be losers

Striving forward with ambition

And if it takes ammunition

We rebel in Handsworth revolution



Dread town, dread town, dread town,

Dread town, dread town, dread town,



Dread we are for a cause

Deprived of many things

Experienced phoney laws

Hatred Babylon brings

We know what we got to offer

We know what's going on

Don't want no favours

Cause there is still hunger

Innocent convicted

Poor wage, hard labour

Only Babylon prospers

And humble suffer

They are brothers in south of Africa

One Black represent all, all over the world

Can't bear it no longer

Blessed wlththe power

Of Jah Creator

We will get stronger-acap
