Lyrics Stephen Marley

Stephen Marley

Iron Bars

What am I doing behind these iron bars

Never robbed nor killed, never done no one harm

You put me in shackles, you place I in chains

Said I'll never see the outside again

Oh!

Yeah, Yeah

I'm a prisoner locked up for what

Freedom of Speech ain't that all we've got

Wounded pride my head held up high

Rebels for life, we rebel for the right

Let me out, let me out

I'm an angry lion

Let me out, let me out

I'm an angry lion

Let me out, let me out

I'm an angry lion

Let me out, let me out

Oh you crazy mother

Heyo, listen, took my freedom, my honor, my pride

To provide for my family I tried

Gots to prepare, 'cause listen

We's here for the ride

Vision's blocked cause we locked inside

Iron bars

Took my freedom, my honor, my pride

To provide for my family I tried

Gots to prepare, 'cause listen

We's here for the ride

Vision's blocked cause we locked inside

Iron bars

Yo I was caught in the mix with nowhere to go

Rent need to be paid things moving slow

I just want to get a deal and spit this flow

See ain't that the dream to live well and get dough

You looking for a change man there ain't no changing

This money, this gun, this drug exchanging

And if you got seeds that makes you go even harder

If it ain't for them man then why even bother

You must think say man a sprat

Ain't no back and belly rat

Well man a lion, yeah

You must think say man a sprat

Don't play no back and belly rat

Well man a lion, yeah

Man a lion

Took my freedom, my honor, my pride

To provide for my family I tried

Gots to prepare, 'cause listen

We's here for the ride

Vision's blocked cause we locked inside

Iron bars

Took my freedom, my honor, my pride

To provide for my family I tried

Gots to prepare, 'cause listen

We's here for the ride

Vision's blocked cause we locked inside

Wanna take away my freedom wanna take away my life

Lock me up, fi what? likkle sensimilia and a knife

So who a good feed mi youth dem eeh who a go care mi wife

You a gwan like ghetto people n'have no rights

Yow, you better let me out or else we gonna bruk out of here

Ghetto pickney we a go load dem in a truck out of here

You see any Rasta youth and need to puck out a hair

You luck out a here you got to duck out of here

'Cause like a vampire a lot of blood you suck out of here

You tek way every cent and every buck out of here

And lock we up in a yu prison fi wi work out of here

We a go bruk down all the wall and get the fuck out of here

Blaze it!
