Bob Marley & the Wailers
The Oppressed Song [#][*]
The man oppressed will seem to do the worstBut with all he possesses self preservation comes firstHis damnation comes not from burning freeAs destruction of the poor is their poverty, is their povertyWhile oppression is the poor man's choiceAh, but in this he does rejoiceHis burdens though heavy, he somehow bearsAs for his seed, there's only one who caresThere's only one who caresThough his pilgrimage extends, his progresses ascendBut as the prudent one exalts, he is gonna find his faultsBut as the wise man sees, he knows, he knowsThere's no rest in the west, so to the east he goes, to the east he goesWhere he can find peace of mind, oh
