"Me Bible Deh Near Me" lyrics
Babylon a build great people
Dem ongle waan kill great people
(Me) Marcus Garvey (Malcom X), Marley Bob, Marthin Luther, Paul Bogle, George William Gordon (Nanny), Sam Sharp
Jesus Christ, Haile Selassie, Mohammad, Kojo of the Maroon, Donovan Bennett
I wanna you fi know
Prezi was a good man
Be merciful to me oh Jah (be merciful to me)
(From my soul trust in you)
Dem waan mi fi go inna di cemetery
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
It comin like a madda and har likkle baby
Was how Selassie I blessing protect mi
Dem waan mi go prison or inna jailhouse
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
Mi been through di storm Jah keep mi irie
That's why mi haffi chant Jehovia joy
Listen mi ghetto youths
Babylon nuh like wi
A just through wi black and through wi nuh Chiney
Di teacha a work di pay so tiny
Di nurse dem a work di pay so tiny
A who fraid fi talk Gaza seh bravey
Cah dat nuh working dat a my damn slavery
That's why mi tell di youth dem fi stay inna school,
Cah education alone a go save wi
De-dem waan mi fi go inna di cemetery
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
It comin like a madda and har likkle baby
Was how Selassie I blessing protect mi
Dem waan mi go prison or inna jailhouse
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
Mi been through di storm Jah keep mi irie
That's why mi haffi chant Jehovia joy
Di boss man a itch fi raise a bill mi
Like seh a fi him dinna alone fi taste it
Sunday him have mutton mi a nyam pastry
A patty and a one Cocoa Bread a tasty
Mi seh ghetto youths
It a go sound crazy
Put dung di machine nuh move so hasty
Nuh box woman nuh care she feisty
Cah Babylon dying fi wi mek a wrong move
Dem waan mi fi go inna di cemetery
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
It comin like a madda and har likkle baby
Was how Selassie I blessing protect mi
Dem waan mi go prison or inna jailhouse
But anyway mi go mi bible deh near mi
Mi been through di storm Jah keep mi irie
That's why mi haffi chant Jehovia joy
(Listen mi ghetto youths)
Di system betray wi
Dem a kill wi inna practical and inna theory
Mi done tell dem yuh seh mi dont watch duppy show
Cah mi light and mi wata bill so scarey
Yuh condemn di ghetto mi seet so clearly
Mi nah be feel di pressure in body weary
Mi won't be feel di pressure all body wear mi
Di too a dem work fi gi wi a betta life
Babylon thus a kill off people pickney
Revolution mi seh da system ya sickny
A Marcus Garvey philosophy fix mi
Cah mi see dem waan hide black people history
But mi haffi seh
I wanna yuh fi know
Prezi was a good man
Be merciful to me oh Jah, be merciful to me
From my soul trust in you
Dem ongle waan kill great people
