A Cry for Protection Against Oppression

Morodo's song "Protegenme" is a powerful plea for protection against systemic oppression and police brutality. The lyrics vividly describe the artist's experience with law enforcement, portraying them as agents of Babylon—a metaphor for a corrupt and oppressive system. The chorus, which translates to "protect me or no, because the cars of Babylon are coming for me," sets the tone for the song, highlighting the constant threat and fear faced by those targeted by the authorities.

The verses delve deeper into the artist's perspective, painting a picture of police officers as once ordinary men who have now become enforcers of a corrupt system. Morodo criticizes their use of power, describing them as "dogs working for a salary" and accusing them of selling their souls for a badge. The imagery of pistols and handcuffs on their belts further emphasizes the violent and oppressive nature of their actions. Despite this, the artist finds solace in the protection of the "King of Kings," a reference to a higher spiritual power that offers him strength and resilience.

The song also touches on themes of resistance and perseverance. Morodo speaks of the Rastaman, a symbol of resistance and spiritual strength, who is protected by a higher power despite the oppressive forces of Babylon. The lyrics convey a sense of hope and determination, with the artist asserting that no matter what happens, the spirit of resistance will continue to grow and thrive. The song is a powerful commentary on the struggles faced by marginalized communities and a call for justice and protection against systemic oppression.
