Run

Better run weh you see the fire weh me bun
run
nah look back weh me bun down Sodom
run
inna disya new millenium
run run run run run run run!!!

Fire bun, sun a shine for the wicked and for the kind
fire weh me bun haffi unscribe in your mind
the truth is very simple if you want to find
you nah fe seek it too much cyah there´s always a lot a signs
ring the alarm another sound a dyin
I ´ m a rastaman my religion is Islam hum
as Bruce Lee said « my style is to have no style »
some a dem pretty nuff a dem a hostile
some don´t want plant the seed some don´t want til the soil
some don´t want the natural life even not for a while
some say they´re civilised I prefer the wild
I prefer the truth some prefer the lie
some did never know about King Selassi I
some did never know about Arassouloullahi
some even did never know about Bouddahi
some keep in darkness nah surround the light

You better run …

Some say they wan´ hear me use more vocabulary
I sing as I speak I´m not a dictionary
keepin´ comprehensive for my youths inna me city
if you think I joke maybe I ´ m jack or jacky
I´m this ghetto youth oppressed by society
I can´t do what you do and you can´t be what I be
politicians are discoursing I sing song with simplicity
pretty pretty shitty shitty what the ras you tell me?!!
me nah speak too much and me nah hype my story
ask jamaicans what do they think about it
ask black people from the ghetto what do they think about it
I will never change but you will die in hypocrisy
I´m this real ghetto youth nervous and ugly
feel like able to lift up an army
test test one two one two three I ´m from tribe of Joseph Joseph is a tree yo!!


You better run...

My arm was made strong by the Almighty
Jah Jah lead my arrows in the heart of the enemy
you will find me on a throne if you put me inna pit
my dreams are so big I´m just like full of vanity
me deyah fe bun all workers of iniquity
me deyah fe bun all kind of enmity
me wan´ more love me wan´ more humility
more kindness, more sympathy
me wan´ accept the dark side of my personality
more consciousness more faith that a holy
me nah wait me nah chose I believe in my destiny
bad a bad good a good but it´s just a necessity
close negative and positive if you want electricity
you need a resistance too that a di Zen philosophy
knowledge was laid down to all community
Prophets was sent to all humanity

You better run...
