Oh yeah, it's been so long
Oh yeah, it's been,
it's been so long
Yeah, it's been, it's been so long
Yeah, it's been, it's been so long
Yeah, it's been, it's been so long
Yeah, it's been so long
We're down in captivity
We work so hard and
still we can't achieve
I want to open your eyes
my friend, I want you all to see
The worst of life
is when you're living in poverty
But it's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah, yeah
Sometimes I wonder,
what is the reason why
They try to keep us down,
they wanna see us die
I don't know why,
why does this have to be
The poor man is feeling pain
while the rich man is so happy
It's been,
it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah

It's been so long, oh yeah, yeah
The prophecies say,
one day we gonna be free
And I sure know,
those words must be ful filled
No matter what they try,
they just can't get us down
We always find a way,
the system must go down
But it's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been so long,
we're down in captivity
We worked so hard,
and still we can't achieve
I want you all to see
The worst of life is
when you're living in poverty
But it's been, it's been so long, yeah
It's been, it's been so long
