Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The road will be narrow 'till the moon get yellow
Bag of lies will have no use,
Say the people already choose
Sharpen your arrow if you want wake up tomorrow
Ready fi trouble we gonna struggle nation them a say so

Resistance, every one a know now government a lie
I see the slope and I say so babylon a run down
See the stone is rolling and rolling
Resistance everyone a know now president a lie
I see the storm and I say so, a change is coming

War you a talking enemies you wanna find
So tell me whats the meaning of the rules dat you define for we
If you wan fight then you should work hard on your rhymes
Cause this yah time no one a blind we said a crime remain a crime
You are a no good mister bossman
No badda try to get our child drowning to the shallows
No badda try to fool our eyes your light is a shadow we know
The living's no proper, but you no matter
Can't feed the anger we a suffer by a dropper
You say messiah but you are liar
Try a remember why you captain on this boat yah

Resistance, every one a know now government a lie
I see the slope and I say so babylon a run down
See the stone is rolling and rolling
Resistance everyone a know now president a lie
I see the storm and I say so, a change is coming

Do you believe
Do you believe in love
Man a wear it in the struggle like my boxing gloves
Do you believe

Mister officer its time now remember your role
If you can't protect the people you should step outta me road
Cause revolution is just a rolling like a stone
In a your town and all around we come fi run over the crown

Resistance, every one a know now government a lie
I see the slope and I say so babylon a run down
See the stone is rolling and rolling




Resistance everyone a know now president a lie
I see the storm and I say so, a change is coming

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Naâman's song "Resistance" convey a message of defiance and empowerment against a corrupt government or authority. The opening lines suggest that the path to change may be difficult and narrow, but eventually, the truth will prevail. The people have already made their choice and are ready to fight for their rights and freedoms. The lyrics encourage sharpening one's metaphorical arrow, symbolizing the need to be prepared and vigilant in order to wake up to a better tomorrow.


The chorus emphasizes the idea of resistance and exposes the lies and deceit of both the government and the president. The mention of Babylon running down and the stone rolling and rolling implies that the oppressive system is crumbling, and change is on the horizon. It suggests that a revolution is brewing, fueled by the awareness of the truth and the desire for justice. The lyrics challenge those in power, questioning their motives and reminding them of their responsibilities.


The second verse directly addresses the authorities, criticizing their actions and hypocrisy. The lyrics express the sentiment of not being fooled by their deceitful tactics. The use of the metaphor "your light is a shadow" implies that their promises and actions are empty and offer no genuine solutions to the struggles faced by the people. The lyrics further emphasize the suffering endured, but also highlight the resilience and determination to keep fighting for justice.


The final part of the song calls out to the listeners, asking if they believe in love and urging them to wear it as they would wear boxing gloves in the struggle. This suggests that love and unity can be powerful tools in the fight against oppression. It then addresses the officers and reminds them of their duty to protect the people. The lyrics assert that revolution is inevitable and will roll over the established powers.


Overall, "Resistance" is a call to action, inspiring individuals to stand up against corrupt authorities and a reminder that change is possible through unity, awareness, and the refusal to be deceived.
