Must
Rasta bear this cross alone |
John
19:16-17 - Then delivered he
him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they
took Jesus, and led him away. And he bearing his
cross went forth into a place called the place of
a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: |
And all the
heathen go free
Jah say no...
Must Rasta live in misery
And heathens in luxury
Jah say no...
He's coming to tear down the walls of
downpression
Drive away transgression
Clean up corruption
Rule equality
Must righteous live in pain
And always put to shame
Jah say no...
Must they be found guilty
And always get the blame
Jah say no
He's gonna tear down the walls of downpression
Drive away transgression
Clean up the corruption
Set the captives free
He will not give I&I
More than I can bear
Jah say no...
He will not make Lucifer
Get your soul to smear
Jah say no...
Him a go tear down the walls of a Babylon
Clean up the corruption
Drive away transgression
Rule equality |
|
He will not
make I
Dash I foot 'gainst the stone |
Psalm
91:12 - They shall bear thee up
in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a
stone.
Luke 4:11 -
And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest
at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. |
Jah say no...
No form of destruction
Won't crumble my bones
Jah say no... |
|
Him a go tear
down the walls of a Babylon |
Jeremiah
51:58 - Thus saith the LORD of
hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be
utterly broken, and her high gates shall be
burned with fire; and the people shall labour in
vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be
weary. |
Eliminate Satan |
Revelation
12:9 - And the great dragon was
cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and
Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was
cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast
out with him.
Revelation 20:2
- And he laid hold on the dragon, that old
serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound
him a thousand years, |
Clean up
corruption
Rule equality
So I will not bear this cross alone
And all the world go free
Him a go tear down the walls of a Babylon
I will not stay poor
Living in poverty
Him a go tear down the walls of a Babylon
Him a come clean up corruption
Drive away transgression
Tear down Babylon |
|
Set the
captives free |
Luke
4:18 - The Spirit of the Lord
is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach
the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal
the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the
captives, and recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty them that are bruised, |
