Mavado - The Messiah
(Selassie I)
Mhm, whoo woii
Dem rise against me
(Valley of the shadow of death, I shall never fret)
Dem mussi think say dem can stop me from sing
('Cause I saw the light, no more darkness
Selassie I put in da light
Yeah)
[Chorus]
One man me fear, a the Messiah
Me a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Me step 'pon the bakklefield, without no shield
All when shot a a fire
All when me nah've no food no water
Jah love me never yet shorter
Me a talk this for real all the pain me a feel
Dem a kill we sons and daughter
[Verse 1]
Tell dutty mind, badmind fi fence we
Dem could a never live fi bench we
Cause to Jah gi' the praise fi I-shence a days
So we basket no empty
And nuff time dem try fi tempt me
Mussi through me a lead by far a dem see
Dem team up and ah join and try stop me time
From me mek me entry
[Chorus]
But a one man me fear, a the Father
Me a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Me step 'pon the bakklefield, without no shield
All when shot a a fire
All when me nah've no food no water
Jah love me never yet shorter
Me a talk this for real all the pain me a feel
Dem a kill we sons and daughter
[Verse 2]
Say weh you waan say, do wha' you feel
Me no beg fren' so we could a never deal (real)
From you try stop me meal
Seem like you a send me to the bakklefield
Press weh you waan press, a you a steal
Run weh you waan run, a you a wheel
Then straight up, then could a the wha' you feel
Man a soldier, so me could a never kneel
[Chorus]
One man me fear, a the Messiah
Me a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Me step 'pon the bakklefield, without no shield
All when shot a a fire
All when me nah've no food no water
Jah love me never yet shorter
Me a talk this for real all the pain me a feel
Dem a kill we sons and daughter
[Verse 1]
Tell dutty mind, badmind fi fence we
Dem could a never live fi bench we
Cause to Jah gi' the praise fi I-shence a days
So we basket no empty
And nuff time dem try fi tempt me
Mussi through me a lead by far a dem see
Dem team up and ah join and try stop me time
From me mek me entry
[Chorus]
But a one man me fear, a the Father
Me a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Me step 'pon the bakklefield, without no shield
All when shot a a fire
All when me nah've no food no water
Jah love me never yet shorter
Me a talk this for real all the pain me a feel
Dem a kill we sons and daughter
One man me fear, a the Messiah
Me a bwoy, believe inna prayer
Me step 'pon the bakklefield, without no shield
All when shot a a fire
All when me nah've no food no water
Jah love me never yet shorter
Me a talk this for real all the pain me a feel
Dem a kill we sons and daughter
[Outro]
