Peter Tosh - Fools Die


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

The lips of the righteous teaches many
But fools die for want of wisdom
Proverbs 10:21 - The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom.
The rich man's wealth is in the city
Vexation of the soul is vanity
Destruction of the poor is their poverty
Proverbs 10:15 - The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty.
Proverbs 18:11 - The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.
The poor man's wealth is in a holy, holy place Matthew 6:19-20 - Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
Why do you fight each other
Why do you kill your brother
Then your reward will be the cemetery

We got to build a better nation
Clean up, clean up Jah creation
Or there will be no future for you, you and me
