Buju Banton - Murderer


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Murderer! Blood is on your shoulder Jeremiah 26:15 - But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take the life of another
Murderer! Blood upon your shoulder
Kill me today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take a life

Lord, you can hide from man but not your conscience

Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent 2 Corinthians 11:3 - But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

God is my witness and He is my evidence Romans 1:9 - For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help Psalm 121:1 - I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
Them could-a never escape this ya judgement

Murderer! Blood is, blood upon your shoulder
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take a life

I tell, you know, all man are created equal
But behind the trigger it's a different sequel
Some are murdering people just to collect medals
Stop commit dirty acts fi the high official
You could-a wash your hand 'til you can't wash no more
It is like an epidemic and you can't find no cure
Upper class you could-a rich, middle class whether you're poor
Only the righteous won't feel insecure
Have you ever think 'bout your skill getting bored

Murderer! Blood upon your shoulder
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take a life

Lord… Drink sulphur bitters won't be bitter like your end
Only God can help you, no family, no friend

But he never condemn
Job with the leprosy, must still reach heaven
He will do for you and everything he's done for them

Murderer! Blood upon your shoulder
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take a life

Once more, you hide from man but not your conscience
Unu eat the bread of sorrow, drink the wine of violence
Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent
What make you disobey the first commandment?
Walk through the valley I fear no pestilence
God a fi me witness and He want an evidence
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help
Them could-a never escape this ya judgement

Murderer! Blood upon your shoulder
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your inside must be hollow
How does it feel to take a life

I tell you, all men are created equal
But behind the trigger it's a different sequel
