Bambú Station – Pass It lyrics

From Sumer down to Mansa Musa
Wilmont Blyden pass it down to Garvey
Who had the answer
We cannot let the information stop here
Our generation got to forward Iya
Pass it, Pass it, Pass it, Yea

Pass it, pass it, pass it, pass it
Pass me some information
So I can be revolution
I man feel like a captive
I feel like I'm trapped in a cage

Knowledge is not so bountiful in America
Me got a bachelor's degree
And still don't know a ting you see
Me just, learning how to survive in the system
Learning how to perpetuate a sin
Learning bout another man's ting lord
I don't like what your life can bring so
Give me some knowledge
Pass on the knowledge
I feel like a captive, lord
Help me out of this bondage yall
And let the music flow, on and on

Pass it, on and on, pass it, on and on
Pass it, on and on, pass it

My mind, my mind
Has played some tricks on me
And it's so apparent
That it's common to see
Time and time I tried to earn a living
But to get ahead I must commit a sin
I guess I must struggling cause
I don't like what your life can bring so
Give me some knowledge
Pass on the knowledge
I feel like a captive, lord
Help me out of this bondage yall
And let the music flow, on and on

Pass it, on and on, pass it, on and on
Pass it, on and on, pass it

Corruption is so bountiful in America
A profit for you works out for a loss to me
We're not, working like
Communities should be
Me helping you and you helping me
What is wrong with this picture I man see
Got to be the system in this society!
Give me some knowledge
Pass on the knowledge
I feel like a captive, lord
Help me out of this bondage yall
And let the music flow, on and on

Pass it, on and on, pass it, on and on
Pass it, on and on, pass it

From Sumer down to Mansa Musa
Wilmont Blyden pass it down to Garvey
Who had the answer
We cannot let the information stop here
Our generation, our nation, our generation
