sacrifice
I was given as a sacrifice To build a black man's hell an' a white man's paradise But now that I know It's time I've got to go, lord The proceedings seem so painful And so slow, slow, slow The proceedings seem so painful And so slow  I have gathered all the wealth From all over the world Beating chains an' shackles Just to help them make them kings, duke and earl But now that I know It's time I've got to go lord The proceedings seem so painful And so slow, slow, slow The proceedings seem so painful And so slow  What I give is what I will take I gave love - I won't take no wait I say : love love love - universally Love love love  What I give is what I will take I gave love - I won't take no wait I say : love love love - universally Love love love - continually Love love love That is what I give And that is what I take
