Macka B - Christmas Cancelled

Christmas has been cancelled, it's been postponed
No longer celebrated inna we home
Pagan things we try to leave them alone
Incorporated into Christianity by Rome
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game, what a shame
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game

All the drunkenness and the overeating
Is it the birth of Christ they're celebrating?
Mostly non-Christians are partaking
Fi some it's just an excuse fi money making
They say peace and goodwill to all men
So how come they're putting up the prices then?
Targeting the parents through the children
Well them nah ketch I and I again, no way, me friend

Christmas has been cancelled, it's been postponed
No longer celebrated inna we home
Pagan things we try to leave them alone
Incorporated into Christianity by Rome
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game, what a shame
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game

A long time the 25th of December
has been a special date in the pagans calendar
Long, long before the birth of Christ
It was a day for partying and celebrating and to rejoice
From Nimrod to Saturn to Mithra
These odds were always honoured on that day in December
Worshipping of sun gods and idol
Why you think Christmas is never mentioned in the Bible

Christmas has been cancelled, it's been postponed
No longer celebrated inna we home
Pagan things we try to leave them alone
Incorporated into Christianity by Rome
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game, what a shame
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game

You see the tree and the ivy and the mistletoe
All of these were pagan things a long time ago
People have them in them house and they don't know what they mean
They just come see them so they just join in
Santa Claus, what a fraud, never once come a me yard
A me parents have to work, work so hard
Christmas put people under pressures
Don't you see that Santa and Satan have got the same letters

Christmas has been cancelled, it's been postponed
No longer celebrated inna we home
Pagan things we try to leave them alone
Incorporated into Christianity by Rome
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game, what a shame
We're using our brain, we're breaking the chain
We're not playing the Christmas game

Them say Christmas is just fi the youth
Well it's about time we tell the youth dem the truth
Instead of buying love with expensive gift
Give them the higher love we should be dealing with
Children's mind have been attacked by the big companies
Christmas time is when they do the most business
I get my children presents any time of the year
Not only on birthdays or when Christmas is near
'Cause, a lot of people inna debt over Christmas
A lot of people life wrecked 'cause of Christmas
A lot of people inna prison 'cause a Christmas
A lot of people gon' missing over Christmas
Commercial Christmas, you know it's not right
It's not really dealing with the birth of the Christ
Don't mek dem pressure you, it's your choice
It's alright to remove it from your life
