Verse 1: from the day mi know miself, man a born of mammal
Although yuh smart, dem sen yuh guh a jamal

Nowhere in the bible where those words come from
Dem restore wi name an class us as african
When con is a short name for condemnation

Christopher columbus, 'bout him discover island
Discover what when him come spot the indian
An a him tun roun an all enslave black man
Muslini an him friend dem tief the gold and all di diamond
Who steal wi name, check the queen wheh deh a england
A she build the pope and introduce vatican
From constantine, julius and all pope john
Now dem reach paul i wonder if dem want to expand
Queen elie-zabeth, all she is a next one
Well mi naah guh too stress me just a look a explanation
This is the word from the black man


Chorus

Verse 2: i say man a true needle kill the dragon and eagle
Murda di pope wheh a defender of evil
Long time dem bwoi deh a pressure black people
Have wi like a slave under chain and shackle

Well a long time mi deh warn dem fi look to the east
Warning to the dragon and the mark of the beast
Mek dem a galong suh like dem caan tun discease
Call on the selassie wheh a blow all di breeze
Weeping wailing, nashing of teeth

Pope constantine inna him grave an all a grief
This is no pelican brief
My speech


Chorus

Verse 3: people, well unnuh clean out yuh ears an listen to mi lyrics
Yuh nuh hear bout di lieshah di ball head prophet
Word of elijah, di man used to spread it

He could not be god, dem haffi tun him inna baptist
This is the meaning of ma lyrics
In these times mandela come an try it
Well him never reach far, prison wall di man face it
Malcolm x try an a coppershot end it
All try and dem beat it an kill it
Marcus garvey try, a fi rice dem sell it
Only we inna di music business can stop it
Follow beenie man and all live it

Chorus after she say that she needed some romance
More rocks, more tocks, more feeling close to me

Tell mi when
Niggas will stop sending other niggas to the pen
Bitches will stop hating other bitches for their men
People player hating other people will it end
Listen to the blend, tell them come again
Fake ass niggas they can never be my friends
Back stabbing fools i think its time you comprehend
We making crazy money so stop watching what we spend
We multiply by ten
Selassie fly the gate
I trample all my enemies cause man a hold the faith
Mi naw go call no name mi friend
But nuff a dem nuh straight
We busy making money nuff a dem a player hate
Dem fassy deh a bait, well beenie man yuh great
Survival of the fittest and the vibe i generate
And people give me money for the style that i create
Even to this date, nuff a dem nuh rate
The works that i perform and all the good i instigate
So yuh want to run the place? well yuh better wait
Cause nuff a unno want fi box the food outta mi plate
You old pirate

Haters and fools, treating me cruel
Putting me down, don't want them around
Sons acting crazy, for money and cars
Fools wanna see, me go behind bars

They wanna see me die no doubt
Beenie man shining and they all wanna get me out
Know that they don't like me from the day i came about
Fassys are behind my back running up their
We be rolling twenty deep and niggas got clout
Big up my colleagues who making money down south
Sailing the caribbean in million dollar boats
In winter we'll be wearing fur coats
Unfortunately, me and the fassy them at war
Judging from my jewellery you can tell i am a star
No ordinary fool can't push a fifty-g car
Nuff a dem a suffer and we all know who they are
Lot a them don't like us cause their money fits in jars
We making fat bank account and living like tzars
Snitches are working for me to be behind bars
This time they went a little too far
