400 Years (live)

Peter Tosh

[Verse 1]
400 years
(400 years)
And, it's the same, same philosophy
I said it's 400 long years
(400 years, 400 years)
And Black people just begin to see

[Bridge]
Why do they fight against these youth, these youth of today?
And without these youths, they would be gone
All gone astray

[Verse 2]
Come on, come on, we gonna make a move
(Make a move, make a move)
Now that the time has come
And the if the fools don't see
(Fools don't see, fools don't see)
I know the youths of today, they gonna be strong

[Bridge]
But, come on with me, there is a land
There is a land of liberty
Sweet liberty
Where we can live, we gonna live a good, good life
And we got to be free
You know we got to be free
Just look how long

[Chorus]
400 years
(400 years, 400 years)
And it's the same old-time, colonial, imperialistic philosophy
I said it's 400 long gone years
(400 years, 400 years)
And my people, just begin to see

[Bridge]
But why not come with me
You say you're black and you're proud
So, you got to be free, you got to be free
Don't sit down on your pride
There's no time for you to hide
Jah is at your side, He's right by your side
Look how long

[Chorus]
400 years
(400 years, 400 years)
And it's the same old-time Columbus philosophy
I said it's 400 long gone years
(400 years, 400 years)
And my people just begin to see
Look how long
It's 400 years
(400 years, 400 years)
And it's the same old-time Columbus philosophy
I said it's 400 long gone years
(400 years, 400 years)
And the Black People still close their eyes
Look how long

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Come with me
You are black and proud
So, you got to be free
Don't sit down on your pride
There's no time for you to hide
Jah is at your side

[Outro]
400 years
(400 years, 400 years)
And the same [?] philosophy
(400 years, 400 years)
