I feel the heat running through my veins I feel my bones made of rock-stone I got that blood thats just made of fire That means its fire running through my dome Lava! You wanna relate to this Rasta yute but seems like its impossible He strives from a hard knock life doing whats logical to keep his moms head up See his family well fed Head to school pursue knowledge Write rhymes and make bread Cuz sitting round don't make sense And bitching out can't pay rent He was only 19 with these dreams of a prophet Picture the ways of Saint Yared with the charm of King Solomon What a mixture of the two, could sabotage a witches brew from the cauldron Tip the shit over and watch it scorch them And still down to preach love to young ones and weak thugs Who's hearts beat a murderous rhythm stuck in the system from a young age Ever since his birth he was so brave, he spoke out His mama had a dream told em go south, the right route cuz most of his family just wasn't family And if she wrote a book I swear she'd win a grammy word to God Even though we moved abroad no-one called It was hard for my mother to hustle and juggle five kids A couple woulda struggled to keep from bugging and trust me I love you for your devotion Even though a ocean kept us parted from our father we relied on holy father With faith that could shake a mountain, make the lame walk, dumb talk Blind start counting their blessings and keep a checklist No Jesus piece! Meskel my only necklace and weapon Fully protected Im stepping greatly intrepid Dreams far from your efforts I reckon you all remember The Marcus Garvey message was quickly returned to sender And judging as a people we frequently always back down Cuz every single leader who preached to us got a mack round And this is a back-lash of blacks giving the back lash Instead of the shackle they snap the handcuff Media and government, thats the master! This is a back-lash of blacks giving the back lash Instead of the shackle they snap the handcuff Media and government, thats the master! Aye, aye Caught up in the system Wrapped up in illusion Could barely tell the difference of winning and losing Still I wonder why we always bound in confusion Willing to take the truth and substitute it with delusion Damn right we f****** snoozing The system made to fool overrule and abuse us Fool over rule and abuse us The system made to fool overrule and abuse us Aye Caught up in the system Wrapped up in illusion Could barely tell the difference of winning and losing Still I wonder why we always bound in confusion Willing to take the truth and substitute it with delusion Yea, we snoozing
