Rough Lyrics - Singles - Boom Shaka

The sun will smite this concrete jungle today 

The rain will fall in Africa 

Sunrise rising in the east 

From where I stand 

I see Jah moon rising right over yonder 

From where I'm standing 

Jah love got the groove 

From where I'm standing 

Jah works got the move 

Despite the wickedness 

Jah love got the groove 

Despite the runnings 

(chorus) 

Rough 

system well rough 

Got to come 

Well red 

ready, red, red, red 

Down in South Africa, war, war 

War are go down there so 

One set a man got the means and the schemes 

The ways oppress the other one well 

Their darkest fears soon reveal 

I hear freedom fighters wailing in Soweto 

Brothers let me tell you 

I feel your pain 

Feel your strain 

chorus 

Longtime we root 

Longtime we dey ya so 

Longtime we fighting for what 

For what we really wanted 

Concrete jungle, concrete jungle well ram 

African, Blackman, Chinaman, Indian here 

Whole lotta love 

Look at the rainbow people out there 

A there so we born 

A there sow the roots now 

With our futures hanging in despair 

chorus
