Lutan Fyah - is this the way chords
Start Jamming...
They, [Gm] Babylon a vampire, [Gm] so much killing, [Ab] simply couldn't [Cm] be taught
[Bb]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, [F]
Babylon
I don't wanna be a part of your slave workforce
Your little cheap labor [Fm] no benefit us no [Cm] more
Even though you [Gm] classify us as poor
The simplest of kindness [Ab] you ignore
This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to [Gm] live
[Fm] Oh, no, no
[Cm] Enslave us from morning [Bb] until evening
[Gm] And load the workforce [Fm] with cheap wages
This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to [Gm] live
[Fm] Oh, no, no, [Cm] no
Too much violence [Bb] and police in it
[Gm] It's crime of the mind, [Fm] but it's in our [Cm] right, yes
Burn Babylon [Bb] as usual, they gave us [Gm] aid for love
But the feeling [Ab] is mutual
[Bb] Gator-type [Cm] security is the money [Bb] extra, son
Big time [Gm] for your feet from the ground where you [Ab] get work, man
Women in sex work, [Cm] slavery, committing murder, such [Bb] as a person
Check the [Gm] living condition, it's worse than [Fm] an oxen
[Cm] Excise in ignorance, they got no [Bb] education
[Gm] The system is a fraud, you [Fm] want a mama?
This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to live
[Fm] Oh, no, [Cm] no
Enslave us from morning [Bb] until evening
[Gm] And load the workforce [F] with cheap wages
This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to [Gm]
live
[Ab] Oh, no, no, [Eb] [Cm] no
Too much violence [Bb] and police in it
[Gm] It's crime of the mind, [Ab] but it's in our [Eb] [Cm] right, yes
This a chaka-chaka marketplace [Bb] lifestyle
A society [Gm] bank away them wealthy [Ab] not the swine
Take [Bb] two ten [Cm] years of involvement
[Bb] Enterprise in front of the [Gm] city
I hear them speaking [Ab] guile
[Bb] Alright, [Cm] them say young girls growing up to [Bb] be Yankee mine
Lube in oil, fire in guns, [Ab] and them rotten and [Eb] squile
Prison yard full up [Bb] like new fashion and style
[Cm] [Eb] Hey, just be still man, [Ab] for a while
Na-na-na-na [Cm]-na-na-na-na
This [Bb] is the system, you know
What a thing
[F] This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to [Gm] live
[Ab] Oh, no, [Eb] no
[Cm] Enslave us from morning [Gm] until [Bb] evening
And load the workforce [Ab] with cheap wages
This is [Cm] the way they [Bb] want us to [Gm] live
[Ab] Come on, come [Eb] on
[Cm] Guns and violence, [Bb] policing
Crime of the mind, [Ab] but it's in the [Cm] way
[Bb] No, no, no, no, no, no, no, [Ab] no, no, no, [Bb] no, [Cm] no
I tell you [Bb] before, now I'm gonna be telling you again
[Gm] The system is not our [Ab] friend
It's [Bb] [Cm]
[Bb] just men's
[Eb] No, no, no, no, [Ab] no, no
This is the [Cm] way [Bb] they want us to live
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[Ab] [Eb] [Cm]
