It takes a million people
To build up a good reputation
But it takes one stupid fool
To destroy everything they've done
The world knows your people as
The most violent in the world
The world knows your nation as
The most oppresive in the world
Take it upon yourself
To restore your nation's dignity
yo ho ho ho ho ho ho
it takes you to teach the world
that is why i gotta say
wherever you go....


Chorus:
Teach the world
Teach them right

It takes a million lives
To get the respect you deserve
When people see your kind
Some of them would run a mile
The world knows your people as
A nation of crooks
Everyone around you should
Always keep their eyes opened
The world knows your nation as
A nation of drug lords
Everyone blames your people
For the destruction of the world
Take it upon yourself
To restore your nation's dignity
ho ho ho ho ho ho
everwhere you go...


Chorus till fade

Katika music Genre these reggae guys depicts good messages. I can call them as Activists if u get time explore the late Joseph Hill who was in a group called Culture.
 
Invsisible, hii CD Album nilipata mwaka juzi wakati wa Christmas pamoja na DVD yake ya LIVE CONCERT.

Kwa kweli ilinimaliza sana na huu ni wimbo mmoja niliupenda sana kwenye hiyo Album.

Hii Album nilianza kuisikia kwenye harusi ya jamaa mmoja ambapo wimbo wa ufunguzi wa harusi, walicheza wimbo wa kwenye hiyo Album ya SOUL TAKER, wimbo uitwao ROMEO and JULIET.

Kwa maada ilivyo hapa, naweka tu link : lucky dube - romeo - YouTube

Wimbo ambao huwa unanichekesha na baadaye kuniliza ni huu wa Lucky Dube wa Rasta Man's Prayer.




There comes a time
In everyman's life where he's got to face
The truth no matter what.
We are coming to you father
With our sins and everything
To thank you

Those that smoke marijuana
Wanna thank you father
For making it grow internationally,
They wanna thank you lord
Even though police cut it down,
Sometimes they burn it down
But it grows again
Thank you father
[ Lyrics from: Lucky Dube - Rasta Man's Prayer Lyrics ]
Chorus
We wanna thank you father
For everything you've given us

Nations that oppress other nations
Wanna thank you father
Even though it's painful to be oppressed
But they thank you...
For making them strong ​

Politicians thank you father
For making them to be able
To lie with a straight face
While the nation cries
They wanna thank you lord ​

Repeat chorus till fade

Lucky Dube, one of my Favourite..Ameongea Busara tupu kwenye huu wimbo.
 
Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a cook but the food no 'nough

You're gonna dance to jah music, dance,
We're gonna dance to jah music, dance,

Forget your troubles and dance,
Forget your sorrows and dance,
Forget your sickness and dance,
Forget your weakness and dance

Cost of livin' gets so high
Rich and poor they start to cry
Now the weak must get strong
They say oh, what a tribulation
Them belly full but we hungry
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a cook but you no 'nough

We're gonna chuck to jah music chuckin'
We're chuckin' to jah music, we're chuckin'

Belly full but them hungry.
A hungry mob is an angry mob
A rain a fall but the dirt it tough
A pot a cook but the food no 'nough
A hungry mob is an angry mob

Young_Master, hata ya mwisho ina maana sana... Wangapi wanakufa kupigania taifa kupata heshima; mpuuzi mmoja anaweza kuharibu jitihada za wengi hao waliopoteza uhai wao katika kuisaka heshima ya nchi!

Mkuu Invisible, thanks. Nimependa ujumbe wa wimbo huo lakini komputa yangu haiwezi kufungua video. Maneno mazito sana mkuu. Na katika context ya Tanzania iliyojengwa kuwa na amani mshikamano, upendo na uvumilivu ..it takes one stupid fool to destroy everything we've done ...

Kweli maneno ya Lucky Dube yametimia kwetu...sasa hivi Tanzania is hopeless, hata Somalia wanaweza kutucheka...!!!
