La-da-da, mmmm-hmmmm
I was given as a sacrifice
To build a black man's hell and a white man's paradise
But now that I know, it's time I've got to go, Lord
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow-slow-slow
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow
I have gathered all the wealth from all over the world
Beaten in chains and shackles
Just to help make them kings, duke and earl
But now that I know, it's time I've got to go, Lord
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow-slow-slow
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow
What I give, is what I will take
I gave love, I won't take no hate, I seh
Love-love-love, I-niversally
Love-love-love
La-da-da, mmmmmmm
Oy
Mmmmmm
Said I was given as a sacrifice
To build a black man's hell and a white man's paradise
But now that I know, it's time I've got to go, Lord
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow-slow-slow
The proceeding seems so painful and so slow
What I give, is what I will take
I gave love, I won't take no hate, I seh
Love-love-love, I-niversally
Love-love-love, I-tinually
Love-love-love
Love is what I give
And that is what I'll take
La-da-da, mmmm-hmmmm
