Congos - Seeking A Favor
So man you lighting a fire that will cause a disaster
(Out the fire, don't let it burn)
But I'm warning you don't kindle those flames
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
For when it burns, burns, burns, you will bear a bad name
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
We are brothers and sisters, birth from one mother
Yet oppression turns us against one another
(Don't you fight against one another)
Then you'll become, your brother's rival
Because you're fighting, you're fighting for survival
Hmm, so no seek no favour, in the eyes of your master
So man you lighting a fire that will cause a disaster
(Out the fire, don't let it burn)
But I'm warning you don't kindle those flames
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
For when it burns, burns, burns, you will bear a bad name
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
Let us break down the system, of curry favour, hmm
And let good behaviour become our saviour, yeah
(Break the system of curry favour)
For as long as we, can love one another, yeah
We can live together, like sisters and brothers
Class, creed and colour, it's a barrier
Which changes mankind into warriors
(Out the fire, don't you bear a bad name)
But equality and justice stands for all
(Out the fire, it will cause a disgrace)
Slave master your kingdom is bound to fall, ooh yeah
So no seeking a favour, in the eyes of your master, hmm
So man you lighting a fire that will cause a disaster
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
But I'm warning you don't kindle those flames, hmm
For when it burns, burns, burns, you will bear a bad name
(.. out the fire)
So no seeking a favour, in the eyes of your master
(Out, out, out, out the fire)
So man you lighting a fire that will cause a disaster
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
But I'm warning you don't kindle those flames
(Out the fire, don't you let it burn)
For when it burns, burns, burns, you will bear a bad name
(Kindle, kindle, don't kindle those flames)
(Out the fire, don't let it burn)
