To me, MIKE LOVE is one of the BEST Reggae musicians. He Rocks my Soul with his Reggae music. His type of Roots Reggae is currently listened to by many in the entire world. I love all his songs. GOD BLESS BROTHER MIKE LOVE. JAH LOVE AND JAH GUIDANCE FOR BROTHER MIKE.
For me Mike is a kind of Freddy Mercury or Bob Marley i dont know but he will be listened for a long long time. His lyrics and their combination are another level on music history.
The lyrics in this song still give me goosebumps today. Don't slave away for somebody else' pocket, empower your own life and take control. When the last tree has been cut down the last fish caught the last river poisoned only then will we realize that we cannot eat money. Don't let our children be born into a world of debt.
Oh Lord, I’m on a permanent holiday I’m going outside to play I ain’t gonna slave away Not for no corporate Babylon I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games Oh Lord I’m taking the reins I’m breaking the chains I’m never gonna kneel, no way My prophet is Heaven sent No preacher or president can lead I astray They’ll never know I’m taking Jah highway home Oh I’ve got my own path to follow Don’t know if you’ll overstand I’ve got my own truth to swallow And you know that if I could you know I would throw my guitar on my back, pick up the slack, and leave here tomorrow But I know that I am a pawn of Babylon I got to face the facts, embrace the axe, and cut these chains off my sorrow So I’m on a permanent holiday I’m going outside to play I ain’t gonna slave away, no, not for no corporate babylon I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games Ten thousand years of captivity We must eventually Open up our eyes and see They’re manipulating we With so much uncertainty And so many mysteries Why are so few questioning The unnatural state of things? It’s a nightmare We’re living in a nightmare Everyone’s living so scared They’re virtually unaware Of this fear that rules their lives Occupies, consumes their minds This fear of bankruptcy Financial impotancy It’s funny money, money, money It’s all this digital currency, woah yeah It’s all this monopoly money That keeps us from ever being free And so it seems we’ll be in this prison for life ’cause if we keep buying then they’ll keep selling the lie So it’s up to I and I… Ohh Lord, I won’t be manipulated, mind-controlled, and inundated I will seek the Revelation, make my life a celebration I will be the change I’m seeking, manifest the words I’m speaking I refuse to be imprisoned. I will make my own decisions I’m on a permanent holiday I’m going outside to play I ain’t gonna slave away Not for no corporate babylon I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games Oh Lord I’m taking the reins I’m breaking the chains I’m never gonna kneel, no way My prophet is Heaven sent No preacher or president can lead I astray They’ll never know. I’m taking Jah highway home I’ll never go astray I’m leaving the past And forwarding fast ’cause freedom is here to stay Oh Lord we got to take back the knowledge We got to take back the power We got to take back the knowledge We got to take back the power We got to take back the knowledge To take back the power Take back what they have stolen from our hearts And we got to take back the esoteric knowledge Ohh Lord for too long they’ve been keeping us apart Ohh yes, we got to take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour Take back the knowledge Take back the power
Please when posting lyrics actually bother to listen to the song and notice it may not be the same as the original. Here is the missing verse near the end. From the moment we were born. Hidden away, stripped away, scraped away, free thought, creativity, all we were destined, , all we were meant to be. Fed into a machine like cogs in a machine fit right into place, its a disgrace now all we were capable of, all the hidden knowledge all the power lost within our soul we got to take it back oh its been stripped away for so long. p.s the guy at 5:19 in the background kinda annoyed me I mean why is he even there checking his phone. your missing out bro
@@taylorroos4414 thank you for adding the ad-libbed part to the lyrics. It is beneficial for us to know for certain what is said. I would like to offer the advice of not criticizing others, but instead just adding to what others have done, progressing all people who are affected and pulling none of our brothers or sisters down in the process. I love you and I thank you, brother bear 🐻
Privilegiados são os que conseguem assistir essa dupla tocando! É meu sonho ir a uma apresentação desses dois. Essa música para mim retrata o Brasil atual do consumo em excesso. Seja pobre ou rico, é dinheiro, dinheiro e dinheiro e muita infelicidade, um vazio. Sou agradecido por estar de "férias peemanente". Thanks Mike and Sam!
I remember seeing mike every Thursday at o’tooles in college. Damn it’s been a long time but from the first time I saw him, he made a huge impact. Saw him last year in my town’s theatre, kahilu. Now I moved to Idaho and wonder if I’ll ever seen him again...
Good on you brother. Send this to people and spread it around man. The personal link to this video gives you a unique opportunity to reach others with it. Whether the message is yours or not, if it is in Love, it's worth sharing.
everytime i listen to this amazing song it reminds me of the blue alien singing opera in the fifth element movie! haha anybody else ever have this thought : D

For me Mike is a kind of Freddy Mercury or Bob Marley i dont know but he will be listened for a long long time. His lyrics and their combination are another level on music history.

The lyrics in this song still give me goosebumps today. Don't slave away for somebody else' pocket, empower your own life and take control.
When the last tree has been cut down
the last fish caught
the last river poisoned
only then will we realize that we cannot eat money.
Don't let our children be born into a world of debt.

Oh Lord, I’m on a permanent holiday
I’m going outside to play
I ain’t gonna slave away
Not for no corporate Babylon
I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games
Oh Lord I’m taking the reins
I’m breaking the chains
I’m never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
They’ll never know
I’m taking Jah highway home
Oh I’ve got my own path to follow
Don’t know if you’ll overstand
I’ve got my own truth to swallow
And you know that if I could you know I would throw my guitar on my back, pick up the slack, and leave here tomorrow
But I know that I am a pawn of Babylon I got to face the facts, embrace the axe, and cut these chains off my sorrow
So I’m on a permanent holiday
I’m going outside to play
I ain’t gonna slave away, no, not for no corporate babylon
I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games
Ten thousand years of captivity
We must eventually
Open up our eyes and see
They’re manipulating we
With so much uncertainty
And so many mysteries
Why are so few questioning
The unnatural state of things?
It’s a nightmare
We’re living in a nightmare
Everyone’s living so scared
They’re virtually unaware
Of this fear that rules their lives
Occupies, consumes their minds
This fear of bankruptcy
Financial impotancy
It’s funny money, money, money
It’s all this digital currency, woah yeah
It’s all this monopoly money
That keeps us from ever being free
And so it seems we’ll be in this prison for life
’cause if we keep buying then they’ll keep selling the lie
So it’s up to I and I…
Ohh Lord, I won’t be manipulated, mind-controlled, and inundated
I will seek the Revelation, make my life a celebration
I will be the change I’m seeking, manifest the words I’m speaking
I refuse to be imprisoned. I will make my own decisions
I’m on a permanent holiday
I’m going outside to play
I ain’t gonna slave away
Not for no corporate babylon
I’m never gonna be a pawn in their manipulation games
Oh Lord I’m taking the reins
I’m breaking the chains
I’m never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
They’ll never know. I’m taking Jah highway home
I’ll never go astray
I’m leaving the past
And forwarding fast
’cause freedom is here to stay
Oh Lord we got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power
We got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power
We got to take back the knowledge
To take back the power
Take back what they have stolen from our hearts
And we got to take back the esoteric knowledge
Ohh Lord for too long they’ve been keeping us apart
Ohh yes, we got to take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge, take back the power, humanity don’t let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Please when posting lyrics actually bother to listen to the song and notice it may not be the same as the original.
Here is the missing verse near the end.
From the moment we were born.
Hidden away, stripped away, scraped away,
free thought, creativity, all we were destined, , all we were meant to be.
Fed into a machine like cogs in a machine
fit right into place, its a disgrace now
all we were capable of, all the hidden knowledge
all the power lost within our soul
we got to take it back
oh its been stripped away for so long.
p.s the guy at 5:19 in the background kinda annoyed me
I mean why is he even there checking his phone.
your missing out bro
Don't listen to this guy bro. Thank you for posting the lyrics.

Oh, Lord I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away
Not for no corporate Babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Oh, Lord I'm taking the reins
I'm breaking the chains
I'm never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
They'll never know
I'm taking Jah highway home
Oh, I've got my own path to follow
Don't know if you'll overstand
I've got my, my... my own truth to swallow
And you know that if I could
You know I would throw my guitar on my back
Pick up the slack, and leave here tomorrow
But I know that I am a pawn of Babylon
I got to face the facts, embrace the ax
And cut these chains off my sorrow
So I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away, no
Not for no corporate babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Ten thousand years of captivity
We must eventually open up our eyes and see
They're manipulating we with so much uncertainty
And so many mysteries
Why are so few questioning the unnatural state of things?
It's a nightmare
We're living in a nightmar
Everyone's living so scared
They're virtually unaware
Of this fear that rules their lives
Occupies, consumes their minds
This fear of bankruptcy
Financial impotancy
It's funny money, money, money
It's all this digital currency, yeah
It's all this monopoly money, woah
That keeps us from ever being free, ooh-oh-yaeh
And so it seems we'll be in this prison for life
'Cause if we keep buying then they'll keep selling the lie
So it's up to I and I
I... nip..., mind... and...
I... Rev..., make... cel...
I... change... man... words...
I... be...
I... own...

I (will be) the change (I'm seeking), mani... (fest) the words (I'm speaking)
I (refuse) to be (imprisoned) I (will make) my own (decisions)
Oh, Lord
I won't be manipulated
Mind-controlled and inundated
I will seek the revelation
Make my life a celebration
I'm gonna be the change I'm seeking
Manifest the words I'm speaking
I refuse to be imprisoned
I will make my own decisions
I'm on a permanent holiday
I'm going outside to play
I ain't gonna slave away, no
Not for no corporate babylon
I'm never gonna be a pawn
In their manipulation games
Oh Lord, I'm taking the reins
I'm breaking the chains
I'm never gonna kneel, no way
My prophet is Heaven sent
No preacher or president can lead I astray
We'll never know
I'm taking Jah highway home
Ooh, I'll never go astray with na-na-na...
I'm leaving the past
And forwarding fast
'Cause freedom is here to stay
Oh, Lord we got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power
We got to take back the knowledge
We got to take back the power, oh-yeah
We got to take back the knowledge
To take back the power
Take back what they have stolen from our hearts
And we got to take back the esoteric knowledge
Oh, Lord for too long they've been keeping us apart
Oh yes, we got to take back the knowledge
Take back the power
Humanity don't let this be our final hour
Take back the knowledge
