(álbum: Soul Pirate - 2008)

Yeh! Alborosie deh yah!

I and I a praise King Selassie!
And endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Africa shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh poor people a get wise
Unnu ramp with me again
King Selassie! Endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Jerusalem shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh Jah Jah people a get wise, whoa

The game up and down just like a yo-yo
Mi smoke mi sensimilla and full join di show
Babylon speed up so mi haffi move slow
Dem sell mi lack a knowledge
But mi lack dem with di flow
Dem teach mi to say yes and mi still a say no
Dem tell mi fi stop and mi still go
Dem tell mi fi cut and mi still grow
Cah Rastafari seh so!

Mi a praise King Selassie!
And endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Africa shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh poor people a get wise
Unnu ramp with me again
King Selassie! Endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Jerusalem shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh Jah Jah people a get wise, whoa

The road to zion rocky
But we still a walk
We move outta Babylon, dem still a talk
We keep the fyah burning
And dem shut it off so
Back it off now, Judgement time now
Emperor Selassie I rule the earth
I and I pray from birth
No handcuff 'pon me wrist, no blood 'pon mi shirt
Babylon mi heart still a hurt

So mi praise King Selassie!
And endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Africa shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh poor people a get wise
Unnu ramp with me again
King Selassie! Endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Jamaica shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh Jah Jah people a get wise, whoa

Dem drop down dem soul
Mi nah drop down mi faith
Babylon crise betta siddung and wait
Cah mi wholla sekkle
And mi just keep mi straight
Yuh reach likkle bit too late
While I'm praise

King Selassie! And endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Africa shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh poor people a get wise
Unnu ramp with me again
King Selassie! Endorse di ghetto youth
Dem mek dem well bright Jerusalem shall rise!
Yuh nuh seet seh Jah Jah people a get wise, whoa

Give thanks and praise to the Most High
So mi a seh
