400 years (400 years, 400 years)
And it's the same, the same philosophy
I've said it's 400 years (400 years, 400 years)
Look, how long, and the poeple they still can't see
Why do they fight against the poor youth of today?
And without these youths, they would be gone
All gone astray
Come on, let's make a move (make a move, make a move)
I can see time, time has come
And if a fools don't see (fools don't see, fools don't see)
I can't save the youth, the youth is gonna be strong
So, won't you come with me, I'll take you to a land of liberty
Where we can live, live a good, good life
And be free
Look how long! 400 years (400 years, 400 years)
Way too long! that's the reason my people my people can't see
Said it's 400 long years (400 years, 400 years)
Give me patience, same philosophy
It's been 400 years (400 years, 400 years)
What so long! How long? 400 long, long years
