Bless Up

(albüm: Da Real Thing - 2002)

Great is Rastafari and great will be praised
I thank the days, Kalonji keep the hotta fire blaze
Yuh hear mi now

Ever living, ever faithful, ever sure
Praise Rastafari more and more
Ever living, ever faithful, ever sure
King Selassie, I liberate the poor

Mi tell yuh seh bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, inna Zion I di most high dwell up
Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Dem sight black people arise and dem head start swell up

Ahh, poor people blood di wicked man been drinking
Corruption slave masters been thinking
Anyhow, I sight dem ship sinking
Black people they be lynching and pinching

Far too long di poor man they been suffering
Dem hail di king of kings, what joy it brings
Mek a juggling and hustling, nah trouble him
Outta life what mi mek all a living

So bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, inna Zion, I Selassie I run up
Bless up, heads up, a time fi step up
'Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up

Ohh, living in roam, you got to hardcore for real
Stop di yutes from killing and ya stop dem from steal
Teach dem to mek a daily living and a daily meal
Who can hear dem a go peal

Rastafari upon di seven sea
Emperor Selassie, I prophecy reveal
Wicked man get trample and a mi hail
Rastafari, where love is real

Ohh, burn di wicked and burn out all war monger
Strike di lightning and Jah, Jah roll di thunder
Cuss all di wicked man that's under
'Cause a false teeth a plunder

Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, inna Zion I di most high well up
Bless up, heads up, time fi step up
'Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up

Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, inna Zion I, Selassie I well up
Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
'Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up

Ooh, woo, ghetto people get so wise
Can't stop di yutes when yuh sight dem arise
How could yuh stop a strong man from survive?
Till then yuh open up yuh eyes

Only love is di answer, and Rastafari always conquer
In di ship Congo, lift fi lift di anchor
Farm and farm di food
Then stop black people from dying from hunger

What to do, got to be strong?
Hold di I and meditation
Give us repartiation, no separation
Ooh

Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, in Mt. Zion, I Selassie I well up
Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Black man arise and Babylon neck start swell up

Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, in Mt. Zion, I Selassie I well up
Bless up, heads up, a time fi step up
'Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up

Mi tell yuh, ever living, ever faithful, ever sure
Praise Rastafari more and more
Ever living, ever faithful, ever sure
Jah liberate the poor, Kalonji tell dem bless up

Bless up, don't get bad mind and jealous
Bless up, in Mt. Zion, I Selassie I well up
Bless up, heads up, a time fi step up
'Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up
