0:17Through white dreads 'nough said
0:19You all walk with kings, talk with kings
0:21When it all goes down,
0:22Have no idea what it really means
0:24To live by words, if scripture is roots
0:26And the wise hold they tongue
0:28When the youth speak the truth
0:29You learn real quick,
0:31Where I'm from if you don't belong

1:17Where the mountains watch the city
1:18And waters touch the sun
1:20Where some carry crosses
1:21Like others carry guns
1:22And pray Jah be glorified
1:24Till the day soon come
1:25Follow me, lick a shot if you
1:27A mighty warrior
1:29Lick a shot if you a freedom fighter
1:32Lick a shot if you a true soul Jah
1:35Now dance your way back to Zion
1:38Now dance your way back to Zion
1:40I put it down for your love,
1:42Till my journey is done
1:43And let the stories be told
1:44How the battle was won
1:46So I grabbed the microphone
1:48And I started to run

2:14Moshin' through your town

2:23Empty nation just a phase,
2:25Redemptions on it's way
2:27The people love to talk
2:29But they don't got that much to say
2:32Generation of orphans
2:34Whose hearts are all ablaze
2:36Little light in a lot of darkness
2:38Goes a long way
2:41Freedom, hearts bleed
2:43And I see them feedin' poison
2:45Poor choices, spirits screamin',
2:47Tryin' to break these boundaries
2:49Running up a mountain,
2:51Chains tied to my feet
2:54Running up a mountain,
2:56Chains tied to my feet
2:59Original Roots In Stereo
