Old Slaves - Stephen Marley

You wanna see my face?

Look in my pains

Look in my pains

Look in my pains

You see them pains from yesterday?

Look in my pains

And this morning feels so close to the past

For just yesterday we were left in the dark

And the oppression of those chains still weighs on your and my brain

Can you see what I’m saying?

Look in my pains

You see them pains from yesterday?

Look in my pains

Was I born free?

Was I born a slave?

Look in my pains

Wanna see my pains?

Look at my face

With the whip upon your mind so your mind leads your soul astray

You can see that today we are all modern slaves

We’ve been thinking that slavery is just from them ancient days

But that’s the puppet master’s game!

can you see what I’m saying?

Look in my pains

You see them pains from yesterday?

Look in my pains

Look in my pains

How far have we gone from yesterday?

Look in my pains

Look in my pains

And this morning feels so close close to the past

For still yet today we are slaves in our yards

Because oppression of those chains still weighs on my and your brain

Should I gonna sing it again?

Look in my pains

You see them pains from yesterday?

Look in my pains

Was I born free?

Are we all slaves?

Look in my pains

How far have we gone from yesterday?

Look in my pains
