FIRE BURNING LYRICS
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning in the city tonight
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning ‘cause things are not right
Another one fall victim at the hands of the system
It cause a people uprising, it cause a robbing and a killing
Natty sit up in the mountain a-playing reggae rhythm
Troubled times are approaching and so-oo-oh the Rastaman chanting
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning in the city tonight
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning cause things are not right
And I was cooking some plantain, yes me and my brethren
When we heard a wailing, the echo ringing in the mountain
A woman was bawling, her son lay down dying
And now the violence erupting, tell me why
No justice inna Jim Crow system
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning in the city tonight
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning cause things are not right
Is this what it takes for I ‘n I to come together
Bombing and looting, buildings on fire
Sweet happiness I say, don’t cry me no river
We got to get it in the groove now people
We’ve got to do it together
We’ve got to make things a little better
Mama told me not to play with fire, I know, hate is not the answer
But Babylon them putting on the pressure, forcing us into a corner
And if you’re Black while driving, a blue light and siren
And down at the border crossing, ICE on the move sorry for the victim
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning in the city tonight
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning cause things are not right
Is this what it takes for I ‘n I to come together
Stabbing and shooting, buildings on fire
Sweet happiness I say, don’t cry me no river
We got to get it in the groove now people
We’ve got to do it together
We’ve got to make things a little better
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning … Fire, fire, fire, fire burning
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning … A fire burning, a fire burning
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning … Fire, fire, fire, fire burning
Fire, fire, fire, fire burning
