teach the world- lucky dube

It takes a million people
To build up a good reputation
But it takes one stupid fool
To destroy everything they done
The world knows your people as
The most violent in the world
The world knows your nation as
The most oppresive in the world
Take it upon yourself
To restore your nation's dignity
yo ho ho ho ho ho ho


Chorus:
Teach the world
Teach them right


It takes a million lives
To get the respect you deserve
When people see your kind
Some of them would run a mile
The world knows your people as
A nation of crooks
Everyone around you should
Always keep their eyes opened
The world knows your nation as
A nation of drug lords
Everyone blames your people
For the destruction of the world
Take it upon yourself
To restore your nation's dignity
ho ho ho ho ho ho

What me think too

[manmutes]

True indeed.....Dube is the greatest reggae musician.......(ma opinion)

[20977andy]

Lucky Dube was the most creative and thoughtful musician, he sung about real life in the real world that seems to be full of only bad and weird things. May his soul Rest in Eternal Peace.

[TheLabelle35]

Here is some wisdom...of course it has always a great part of this man life...sadness, pain, suffering, teaching us to look at the good that is out there. It's is not all bad out there. We can't turn the pain into positive.

I love this song

[atikalforeal]

talk they say is cheap, but wise men think before they talk and not the other way round. i like this argument, so, lets get down to brass tacks. bob marley, peter tosh, 2pac and biggy small to mention but a few was shot by who? so when you get the answer then you holla back so we talk on dube of blessed memory and please dont chicken out. if u dont like certain people or country dont go about running your mouth, wise people talk facts while fools make noise. thats the difference hatter.
