Oppression - Joyful Noise (CMU)

"Oppression" by Ben Harper, as performed by Joyful Noise, an a capella group at CMU (with people from around CMU too!). Also some dancing by some guys from Seeds of Hope church.

Since my camera's not really awesome, here are the lyrics. Yay JN!

Oppression - Ben Harper

Oppression
you pray on us when we sleep
oppression
you chase after the tired the poor the weak
oppression
you know you mean only harm
oppression
you reach out
with your long arm

but oppression
I won't
let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear
me

oppression
you seek population control
oppression
to divide and to conquer is your goal
oppression
I swear that hatred is your home
oppression
you just won't leave bad enough alone

but oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear me

oppression
I don't see how you sleep
oppression
for your bleeding conscience I weep
oppression
you may have the dollar on your side
but
oppression
from the gospel truth you cannot hide
and
oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall learn to fear me
oppression
I won't let you near me
oppression
you shall
fear me
