[Intro:] Go away man cause we no love pagan |
|
Remember that, |
|
Blessed. When ever you take part in the up-rising of the black child |
|
When them see we face them a run come smile. |
|
Well red, soil them get soil, soil them get soil. [Chorus:] |
|
As Emperor |
|
Selassie I was in the beginning |
|
Is now and ever shall be |
|
Be glorious in your powers while |
|
I sing To his own |
|
Devine Majesty. |
|
As Jah was in the beginning |
|
Is now and ever shall be |
|
Be glorious inna your powers while |
|
I sing To the whole ghetto community. [Verse 1:] |
|
Nuff a them a look fi |
|
Selassie Yet them greedy fi wealth |
|
Make me tell you |
|
You can not be looking out of yourself |
|
How close are you to |
|
Zion ? Inna |
|
Emmanuel Tabernacle have you ever knelt ? |
|
Confuse not your heart |
|
Power from the source |
|
Black child of the |
|
Zion is of the eastern coast. |
|
What life has taught me is to love and not to boast |
|
Nuh teach the youth them bout no damn holy ghost [Chorus] [Verse 2:] |
|
Me haffi holla out |
|
I and I and |
|
I are the |
|
Royal son of |
|
King David |
|
So Babylon why you try to deny |
|
The ghetto youths loyal knowledge ? |
|
Red, gold and green with the black five point star |
|
Banners shall flow inna every village |
|
Me tell them sey repatriation no deh far |
|
Get yourself ready and come we go pon |
|
Babylon bridge |
|
When money caan do it and there is no food to eat |
|
For me nah go tell the street how them a bawl and a weep |
|
A them a call fi peace but grap and a run with all of the wheat |
|
But Bob hill them soon caan see it [Chorus] [Verse 3:] |
|
We tell them say |
|
Everything that provide |
|
Come we chant all |
|
Nyahbinghi inside the royal palace |
|
Ghetto youth just be wise how unnuh haffi rise |
|
Come make we open up we eyes |
|
A tell you sey, me haffi chant down river |
|
Nile Babylon me just come and career get soil |
|
Yow, I want to live it up and trod down |
|
Nine Mile |
|
Remember that the city, yow, haven't a living reptile [Chorus] [Verse 1] [Chorus] |
