Messiah Songtext
von Mavado

Selassie I
Woohhhhahah dem rise against mi valley of the shadow of death
I shall never fret
Dem mussi think seh dem cyan stop mi from since

One man mi fear
Right di Messiah
Mi a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Mi step pon di bakklefield, without no shield
All when shotta a fyah
All when mi nuh have no food no wata
Jah love mi never yet shorter
Mi a talk this for real all di pain mi a feel
Dem a kill wi sons and daughta


Tell dutty mind
Badmind fi fence wi
Dem coulda neva live fi bench wi
Cause to jah gi di praise fi I-shence of days
Yo wi basket nuh empty
And nuff time dem try fi tek mi
Muss through mi a live by far a dem see
Dem team up and try and try stop mi time
From mi mek mi [? ]

But a one man mi fear
A di fadda
Mi a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Mi step pon di bakklefield, without no shield
All when shotta a fyah
All when mi nuh have no food no wata
Jah love mi never yet shorter
Mi a talk this for real all di pain mi a feel
Dem a kill wi sons and daughta

Seh weh you waan seh
Di way you feel
Mi nuh beg fren so we coulda neva deal
From yuh try stop mi meal
Seem like you a send mi to di bakklefield
Press wey you waan press
A yuh a steal
Run wey you waan run, a yuh a wheel
Then straight up then coulda the way you feel
Man a soldier so mi coulda neva nail


One man mi fear
Right di Messiah
Mi a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Mi step pon di bakklefield, without no shield
All when shotta a fyah
All when mi nuh have no food no wata
Jah love mi never yet shorter
Mi a talk this for real all di pain mi a feel
Dem a kill wi sons and daughta

Tell dutty mind
Badmind fi fence wi
Dem coulda neva live fi bench wi
Cause to jah gi di praise fi I-shence of days
Yo wi basket nuh empty
And nuff time dem try fi tek mi
Muss through mi a live by far a dem see
Dem team up and try and try stop mi time
From mi mek mi [? ]

One man mi fear
Right di Messiah
Mi a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Mi step pon di bakklefield, without no shield
All when shotta a fyah
All when mi nuh have no food no wata
Jah love mi never yet shorter
Mi a talk this for real all di pain mi a feel
Dem a kill wi sons and daughta
