Oppression Lyrics

Oppression by Ben Harper

Oh- Oppression
You prey 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, aah no.
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me, yes you will.

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, aah no.
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me, yes you will.

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, aah no.
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me, yes you will.
Oppression
I won't let you near me - aah no.
Oppression
You shall fear me, yes you will - aah.
