Cannot Buy My Soul Lyrics by Jimblah

Phoenix

0

[Verse 1: Jada]
For two hundred years we’ve been beaten down
Too long, on the dole
My dignity, I’m losin’ here
Mentally, I’m old
There’s a system here that nails us
And we’re left out in the cold
They took our life and liberty, friend, but they
Could not buy our soul
Joe Hill died, Che Guevara
Pemulway lay down dead
If a person speaks out critically here, you can
Get loaded down with lead
How long can majority wait
For the stories to unfold?
Well, they took their life and liberty, friend, but they
Could not buy their soul
[Verse 2: Jimblah]
I’m scared to play a victim, I raise my voice up
I give it everything I got for every single life lost
Right from wrong, it’s still unjust, we live collectin’ promise
We sing for better days to come and for the blood to bleed
You take away my beliefs, my family and my seed
Nightmares when our sleep, you invaded our dreams
Struggle to breathe, with nowhere to turn, I still
Search for the peace ‘cause I know what it’s worth
[Verse 3: Jada]
The Cleverman spoke precisely
Humanity, he said, was done
It’s creed for greed could not proceed without
Struggles to be won
For humanity’s more important here
Than the constant quest for gold
Well, you may take life and liberty, friend, but you
Cannot buy our soul
[Verse 4: Jimblah]
The greed overwhelms me and I can’t help bring
[?], I break free from the hurt
Smoke seed through my lungs, when I breathe and it hurts
Too concerned with the coal to even care about her
All the coal in the world don’t amount to what she’s worth
So, forget humanity, tell me what we deserve
Fall to my knees, I beg and I plead for you to open your eyes
I’m strugglin’ to survive, this isn’t my life
[Verse 5: Jada]
Jesus woke one mornin’
Rode a donkey up through the gate
He could see quite clearly
He was goin’ to meet his fate
And the powers that be could see that he
Could not be bought or sold
Well, they took his life and liberty, friend, but they
Could not buy his soul
[Outro: Jimblah]
Can’t buy my soul
Can’t buy my soul
No
Can’t buy my soul
Hoo, hey-ey
Uh, you can’t buy my soul
Ooh
You can’t buy my soul
