Lyrics Biko's Kindred Lament - Steel Pulse
The
night
Steve
Biko
died
I
cried
and
I
cried
The
night
Steve
Biko
died
I
cried
and
I
cried
Biko,
O,
Steve
Biko
died
still
in
chains
Biko,
O,
Steve
Biko
died
still
in
chains.
Biko
died
in
chains,
moaned
for
you
Biko
died
in
chains,
moaned
for
you,
yeh.
Blame
South
African
security,
A
no
suicide
he
was'nt
insane.
It
was
not
for
him
to
live
in
Rome,
No
Still
they
would'nt
leave
him
alone.
Yeh
yeh
yeh,
They
provoke
him,
they
arrest
him
They
took
him
life
away,
But
can't
take
him
soul,
Then
they
drug
and
ill-treat
him,
Till
they
kill
him,
And
they
claim
suicide.
I'll
never
forgive
I'll
always
remember,
Not,
not
only
not
only
I
no,
But
papa
brothers
sisters
too,
Yeh,
yeh
Him
spirit
they
can't
control
Him
spirit
they
can't
man-trol
Cannot
be
bought
nor
sold
Freedom
increase
one-hundred
fold.
The
system
something's
got
to
be
done,
Straight
away,
The
system
of
weakheart
emontion
They've
got
to
pay
The
system
of
backra
corruption
They've
got
to
pay
The
system
is
destroying
my
nation
The
system...
kill
him
O,
O
Jah
Jah,
O
Jah
Jah,
Take
them
where
life
sweeter,
Send
a
Moses
to
set
them
Free.
Pharoah's
army
won't
let
them
be,
From
the
beginning
he
knew
he'd
meet
his
end
Yes
my
friend
They'll
keep
on
ruling,
all
hours
Jah
Jah
send
I'll
tell
you
again
Dem
take
him
life
- Dem
take
him
soul,
Him
spirit
they
can't
control
Cannot
be
bought
nor
sold
Freedom
increases
one
hundred
fold
Freedom
increases
one
hundred
Freedom
The
system,
the
system,
the
system,
The
sy,
a,
a,
Somethings
got
to
done,
The
system
where
black
man
get
no,
get
no,
Get
no
recoginition.
The
system
of
colour
partition
The
system
shoul
be
yanked
from
creation
The
system
kill
him.
O,
O
Jah
Jah,
O
Jah
Jah,
Take
him
where
life
sweeter
Send
a
Moses.
Send
a
Moses.
Pharohs
army
won't
let
them
be,
Biko
died
in
chains
Yeh
Moans

you
Biko
died
in
chains
all

moaning
Moans

you
Yeh

Biko,
O,

O
Steve
Biko

in
chains
Biko,

Still,

in
chains
Still,

in
chains
Cha-ains...
