Ye resist not evil
Whoever shall smite thee
Will have to face the almighty
So take away my coat and my cloak
Jah have me riches so me never broke
Lord I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do or say
Keep jah in my heart, the father shall carry my cross
How do I say it in a manner that
Don't seem hype if I say we bring the banner back
Red gold green not a fad, badge of honour that
Defender of the faith fi a fact we deh ya pon attack
Today tomorrow man a warrior nuh follow that
Try put a stop to that but a just a comma dat
Matter fact a so the sentence goes
I never try get revenge from these senseless foes
Lord I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do or say
Keep jah in my heart, the father shall carry my cross
Me likkle bredrin touch 16
Sight up the king and a adjust him dreams
Ones can't overstand a wonder what this means
Develop fear in them heart and them start set fi him
Him tell me, jah never make him get defeat
So him move like a gaddy and prevail pon the street
You nuh see it
A 3 shot him get fi eat and him still
Deh ya stand up pon him feet
Lord I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do or say
Keep jah in my heart, the father shall carry my cross
You turn you back on the well when u done drink the water
All the quarrelling it woulda must bring disaster
Fight against you brother just offending the master
Them I couldn't join it woulda must kill me faster
Oooh, I seen the strategy before fi drain I energy hypocrisy for sure
Father please take my nemesis away from jah premises
