Prediction (BBC Session, London / 1977) Songtext
von Steel Pulse

Without the pastor noteded
Hear what the prophecy says for everyone

Prediction, prediction foretold
Prediction, yeh, from the days of old
Prediction, yeh, from way back when
The years Jah send, years Jah send
Prediction a long, long time ago
Selassie was neglected, tell me when?

Like the tales of the Messiah, yah
All over again
Garvey was rejected tell me when?
Unlike the Baptist he has kept his head
I said vank

William Gordon and Paul Bogle led
A rebellion cause they used their heads
But had their necks in a noose
Martyrs of freedom, freedom condemned
But Jah Jah cut them loose, hey heh


Prophesised that, we would suffer by (ask Elisha)
Those who think themselves superior (ask Elisha)
To our colour, yes sah (ask Elisha)
Descendants of Naiman the Leper ask Elisha (ask Elisha)
Offsprings of Naiman the Leper ask Elisha (ask Elisha)

(Ask Elisha, ask Elisha)
If a lie (ask Elisha, ask Elisha)
If a lie (ask Elisha, ask Elisha)
(Ask Elisha, ask Elisha) ask Elisha if a lie
(Ask Elisha, ask Elisha) ask
(Ask Elisha, ask Elisha) ask Elisha if a lie

Tomorrow′s what we're on about
Tomorrow′s what we're on about
Not yesterday

Tomorrow's what we′re on about
Tomorrow′s what we're on about
Not yesterday

It′s up to man to understand
To have success upon this land
He better have some faith

Have some faith
Have some faith
Have some faith
Have some faith


Have
Some
Have, some
Faith
Have

The impossible (some)
has a habit
Of happening (have some)

If you think a lie (faith)
Ask Elisha
