Barrados

I'm kind of tired (I don't give up)
Several times barred from the dance (I still insist)
I believe in everything I do and
I persist in everything I do
I believe in the one who comes from space
Just yesterday in the condo where I live
A lady, when she saw me
Squeezed her purse, she hid her purse
Squeezed her purse, the white woman quickly held her purse
These are scenes from my city, an illness of society
Scenes from my city, an illness perhaps incurable
You there, how do you pass by, what do you think?
You there, how do you pass by, what do you think of this?

We are barred from the dance, all barred from the dance
They say it's only for the beautiful people
We are barred from the dance, all barred from the dance
They say it's only for the beautiful people

These are scenes from my city, an illness of society
Scenes from my city, an illness perhaps incurable
You there, how do you pass by, what do you think?
You there, how do you pass by, what do you think of this?

We are barred from the dance, all barred from the dance
They say it's only for the beautiful people
We are barred from the dance, all barred from the dance
They say it's only for the beautiful people

I believe in everything I do
And I persist in everything I do
I believe in the one who comes from space
God of Abraham, Jacob, Isaac will come
And in him all my hope of
Peace, health, and joy, oh jah jah jah jah jah
