The Rock

(album: New Roots - 2006)

I said we plant the seed, raise the stock
You cut it down when you build on the rock (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
One edge hot and the other is sharp
Got to do battle when the blade is hot (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
Another piece of the pie in demand
What happened to the giving hand? (whoooaaa, yeahhh [x2])

I said they come to play, then they stay
Build on the rock but you can't change our ways (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
On to our goal, we've got to push
A burning hand is worth two in the busy (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
Said it's a positive way in which we live
Never forget but forever forgive (whoooaaa, yeahhh [x2])

[Chorus:]
Take the land, but you can't take the soul away (yeahhh)
Build on our sand, but there's always a price to pay (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
You can take the land, but you can't take the soul away...

I said me build a spliff, get ya fire
Iration make the crowd get higher (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
Back up from this innocent man
I can see right through your wicked plan (whoooaaa, yeahhh)
Straight from the core to the mountain top
Solidified in the ways of the rock (whoooaaa, yeahhh)

[Chorus x2]

(Whoooaaa, yeahhh)
