Ankh Watep - Out Of Control

Well the diaspora gimmicks was no problem to the world
The whole world shall know that
And our history shall reveal itself
And Black people must stand up strong and unite

Play on, play on

In ancient days they took us for granted
Invade us, and raid us, oh it was outrageous
They hook us and took us away from our mainland
Because of suppression we’ve come to a strange land
Ships and whips, life and death slowed our mission
That diaspora, a Europeans euphoria…

Was out of control, say out of control
If I was living in those ancient days
Still I’ve got to get my ancient ways
So it’s out of control
The mystery's out of control
If my ancestors taught you great and well
And now you put us on those evil spell

Play on, play on

You’ve made your choice clear about your religion
Extracting and acting your life on a version
While paving my way I’ve made my decision
That hypocrisy has made you a legend
You’re fooling the people everyday and having your way
But history done tell I say, that you can’t have your way

But its out of control, say out of control
If I was living in those ancient days
Still I’ve got to get my ancient ways
It’s out of control
The mystery's out of control
If my ancestors taught you great and well
And now you put us on those evil spell

Play on, play on

Before Christ we'd ruled for many of centuries
We’re learning and earning from all of our mysteries
Those 2000 years you took from our history
It was the killing and slaying of all our ancestries

Was out of control, say out of control
If I was living in those ancient days
Still I’ve got to get my ancient ways
So it’s out of control
The mystery's out of control
If my ancestors taught you great and well
And now you put us on those evil spell

Play on, play on
