| And now the one that’s rised so high as the most high

| Show we them a fi go burn dem turf
|
| No take no bribe from no friends fi start the fire we a burn eh
|
| Show me them and we go cleanse them first
|
| No take no bribe from no friend
|
| A no fire we a purge
|

|
| A vanity them still want
|
| That’s why all now them a feel
|
| Done know them hungry

|
| Run go touch Emmanuel
|
| Well I hope you shall go pleased
|
| Well, partial wolf, under bull a dead you’re dead
|

|
| Give me the whole entourage and make me bun it down red
|

|
| And now them bow to them weakness
|
| Can’t take the trodding

|
| Go on and on in as the cold you a go lose everything
|
| This one you have fi know, check out the youths them living
|
| Other than that me know
|
| You’re even into the racketeering
|
| Used to call me malice, a majestical King
|
| I come fi stop the ghetto youths them killing
|
| And all what you have will be burning, yearning
|
| This is our blackness, what you require?
|
| I and I no love slackness, that a pagan desire
|
| See him just a practice
|
| Now a you them a follow
|
| A compete fi heartness
|
| And a prove who badder
|
| And every day them come speechy by
|
| Exposing the woman them shame, but why?
|
| Whole a unnuh in a the game
|
| So all look out for who a cry
|
| Stab who right and fag way Babylon buy
|
| Corruption full you bag, until you can’t satisfy
|
| The whole of them want mob
|
| Tell them righteousness a King Selassie I
|
| Tell them say who we hotta than heat
|
| Hail King Selassie rather than the beast
|
| The whole of them heavens and sevens this a reach
|
| Blackness never look good when it bleach
|
| Fire too hot them have fi hide and a creep
|
| Free up the glory of the earth is so sweet
|
| I and I inherit it to share with each
|
| Seventy two nations go and wash him feet
|
