Lyrics Alpha & Omega - Lee "Scratch" Perry

Alpha & Omega

King Alpha, and Queen Omega
The beginning, and the end
Jah, righteous people
Must rule again
(Seh me no like the kind of Babylon)
(Seh me no dig them kinda wicked men)
(For I am a righteous Rastaman)
I’m a righteous man
And I’m a conscious man
I’m livin in this land
It’s I father’s land
As wise as a serpent
And harmless as a dove (I and I starving)
So meekly wait and murmur not
'Cause I’ve done a lot, for what I’ve done
(I and I must beat down Babylon)
(I and I go whip dem wicked men)
(I and I go beat down Babylon)
The wise man quickly and completely
By the means of sought of knowlegde
(Go whip dem, whip them)
(Go whip dem, whip them)
The shackles great divide
Conscious or unrighteous, action
And dwelleth the poor says
You gotta be conscious
And you gotta be righteous
To live in this land
Live brother
(Oh what a wicked situation)
(I and I dying for salvation)
So fire burn the wood
As the righteous people bring forth the word
(I and I go beat down Babylon)
(I and I gonna beat down Babylon)
(I and I must whip them wicked men)
Cause I’m a righteous man
And I’m a conscious man
And I’m livin' in this land
It is my father’s land
No evil doers shall stand
And no weak heart shall prosper
Cause I’m righteous man
Can live in this land
