Beres Hammond - Come Down Father

Hmm..
Watching the time our people are moving and murmuring to myself.

Wish it never had to be, the way I see, this world running,
Shouldn't have to be,
'Cause now everyman's cup is filled with hate and overflowing,
Father, a nuff things a gwan round ya, it's wickeder than before,
We really check sey we coulda run things, but it nuh look so anymore.

Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..

In my heart I know that,
You won't let ur chosen people suffer, (too long)
I know you would never let us down, no-oh-oh, now,
Many times I coulda pick up a gun,
I coulda go out a street and play big John,
That's no fun no, sure ain't no fun, 'cause I think,
What would happen if the other man,
Thinks the same, then bullets fall like rain,
It's no fun no, no it's no fun.

Oh I see greed and I see selfishness, everyman is for himself,
Only you can talk to them Father, 'Cause they listen to no one else, no.

Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..

To the hearts of those responsible,
Let them know their actions are despicable,
Remind them that is you, who wears the crown.

Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..

Hmm..
Watching the time our people are moving and murmuring to myself.

Oh, unto the ones who think you can do these wrongs and get away,
Woe unto you, and watch out for ur day.
I wish it never had to be, the way I see, this world running,
Shouldn't have to be, 'Cause now everyone's cup is filled with hate and overflowing,
Father, a nuff things a gwan round ya, it's wickeder than before,
We really believe we coulda run things, but it nuh look so anymore, no.

Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
Come down Father, come down..
