Alpha & Omega

(album: Dread & Terrible - 2014)

Sent by di king, watch dem under ring
When mi fly down far
Fi step 'pon di beast and kick down riddim
Like a Sly Dunbar
Wi burning di system weh tell di youths
Seh fi fight gun war
Uplifting mi sistren, tell are seh
Selassie I love star
Peeniewallie, Babylon di system falling
But this is just di beginning
Beginning a di grand finale
Finale because eventually we get di cause
Seh wi fi stand up tall and wi fi gang up
'Cause united wi stand, divided we fall
And we love peace

Walk wid di Prince of Peace
Selassie a di leader
Praises be to di Kings of Kings
Alpha and Omega

Wooo-oh-oh-oh, Selassie a di leader
Wooo-oh-oh-oh, Alpha and Omega
Well

Guiltiness is on their face
And bloodshed on their shoulders
Turn from your sinful ways, yeh
Before lightening strike all over

Whole heap a atrocity weh yo
Cause 'pon ghetto youth
Then yuh have di other city
Fi come gi mi gun fi shoot
And a chat how yo lock di city
Well this is di ugly truth
When yuh bring all di guns come gi mi
Mi give it to my recruit
Big revolution when time di guns dem turn
Turn 'pon di old politician
Weh being coming di first place
Yuh should a found education
Fi meck di youth dem learn
Instead yuh buy ammunition
And yuh waan come run a next turn
Go run up under yo bed, bwoy
Put yo hand 'pon yo head
Mi terrible and mi dread
Corrupted politician fi dead bwoy
Wa happen to Coral garden, down a Tivoli Garden
Come like yuh pree every garden
No revolution breach every garden
Go put this up in di Gleaner
Mi want it reach every reader
If yuh no live like Haile Selassie
Yuh no fit fi be the next leader

Walk wid di Prince of Peace
Selassie a di leader
Praises be to di Kings of Kings
Alpha and Omega

Wooo-oh-oh-oh, Selassie a di leader
Wooo-oh-oh-oh, Alpha and Omega
Well

Never gonna stop until my people are free
As it was in the beginning, so shall it be
In the last days when the youths dem a pree
Dread and terrible
Give thanks and praise for the King of Kings
Praises be to the Prince of Peace
Nah stop give thanks and praise to Alpha and Omega

Empress Menen
Haile Selassie I
Chant it again
