Paroles et traduction de la chanson «Oppression» par Ben Harper

Oppression (Oppression)

Oppression
Oppression
You prey on us when we sleep
Tu fonds sur nous dans notre sommeil
Oppression
Oppression
You chase after the tired the poor the weak
Tu poursuis le fatigué, le pauvre, le faible
Oppression
Oppression
You know you mean only harm
Tu sais que tu ne veux que le mal
Oppression
Oppression
You reach out with your long arm
Tu t'étends avec ton bras long
But oppression
Mais oppression
I won't let you near me
Je ne te laisserai pas m'approcher
Oppression
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me
Tu apprendras à me craindre

Oppression
Oppression
You seek population control
Tu cherches à contrôler la population
Oppression
Oppression
To divide and to conquer is your goal
Diviser et conquérir est ton but
Oppression
Oppression
I swear that hatred is your home
Je jure que la haine est ton domicile
Oppression
Oppression
You just won't leave bad enough alone
Tu ne laisseras rien en paix même quand ça va assez mal comme ça
But oppression
Mais oppression
I won't let you near me
Je ne te laisserai pas m'approcher
Oppression
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me
Tu apprendras à me craindre

Oppression
Oppression
I don't see how you sleep
Je vois pas comment tu peux dormir
Oppression
Oppression
For your bleeding conscience I weep
Pour ta conscience qui saigne je pleure
Oppression
Oppression
You may have the dollar on your side
Tu as peut être le dollar de ton côté
But oppression
Mais oppression
From the gospel truth you cannot hide
A la parole de l'évangile tu ne peux pas te soustraire
And oppression
Et Oppression
I won't let you near me
Je ne te laisserai pas m'approcher
Oppression
Oppression
You shall learn to fear me
Tu apprendras à me craindre
Oppression
Oppression
I won't let you near me
Je ne te laisserai pas m'approcher
Oppression
Oppression
You shall fear me
Tu apprendras à me craindre
