Shackles And Chain

[Intro]
Oh yeah

[Verse 1]
The shackles and chains must be broken
There must be some righteous word of justice to be spoken

[Chorus]
What about that half that never been told?
And who steal the gold that was stolen?

[Verse 2]
I and I fore parents were tricked and made slave
If some of dem will not obey, they would not live to see another day
But what was hidden from wise from and prudent
Now reveal to the babe and suckling

[Chorus]
What about the half that never been told?
What about the half, the half that never been told?

[Bridge]
Oh yeah, there must be an answer
The half, the half, the half that never been told
The half, the half, the half that never been told

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
So what about the half, the half that never been told?
I and I fore parents were tricked and made slave
If some of dem will not obey, they would not live to see another day
But what was hidden from wise from and prudent
Now reveal to the babe and suckling

[Chorus]
What about the half that never been told?
What about the half, the half that never been told?

[Outro]
Oh-oh yeah, there must be an answer somewhere
Oh, life wouldn't be that way, oh yes
The half, the half, the half that never been told
And who steal the gold that was stolen?
