Foundation

Sit pon a shaky foundation

They build their house upon the sand

Rasta never trouble no man

A good vibration

Have to Keep your head strong

Pay no mind to the lies they pass along

See we nuh ball with nuh wicked man

Come fi fight inna the dance no

Roll up a spliff And take it easy

We just come fi chant yo

Deh pon the riddim we toast a mic

And rock it inna nice flow

Giving praises to the king

HIM sit upon the throne gold

For too long

For too long

Babylon them have us slaving on and on

For too long

For too long

They build a nation upon a falling ground

Sit pon a shaky foundation

They build their house upon the sand

Rasta never trouble no man

A good vibration

Have to Keep your head strong

Pay no mind to the lies they pass along

What is a tree without a solid root foundation?

Even if it looks nice and strong

Remember

Every tree that stand tall

Eventually will fall

If the ground won't let the roots take form

Sit pon a shaky foundation

They build their house upon the sand

Rasta never trouble no man

A good vibration

Have to Keep your head strong

Pay no mind to the lies they pass along

I said I'm leaving

I was never gonna stay

I said I'm learning

And I'll never go astray

Say I may bend but

I will never break

You can bend my branches

But the seeds already spread

You can try and cut me down

But roots will grow again

Deep inna the soil

Mother give I nutrients

Educate the youth

With no color preference

Give them confidence

So they're not living in defense

Sit pon a shaky Foundation
