[Chorus]

It affected many people inna detrimentally

A herdsman gathering fruit ya from a Sycamore Tree

When him be, a situation ya go call him fe be

Nuff staunch criticism from past quality

Isaiah 6:5 ah utter, ah say him lips dirty


[Verse 1]

And saw the king's procession and inna ten thousand many

And the kingdom of the earth establish ya inna mimicry

Inna pomp and circumstance ya inna royalty

Honor Jah shall dwell among them, himself the almighty

Go north, where them sit down upon the seat of jealousy

Go south, where them carry them wealth upon the back of horses to be

From the whole lion land, where the viper fiery

To a people who shall profit, them not kneel ye

Oh God of I salvation, ya his eminence

From your see Hile named, ya inna Luke 3:23

Haile Selassie I the first ya inna the Christ complete

It no sweet when them delete ya fi sift the chaff from the wheat

Inna purple borderline crimson, the juice of the beets

Inna borderline indigo and burgundy

Chant his Ises, unto the Christ inna heaven monarchy

For we all are one blood sprung from combi

Combination, love Jah people every nationality

Bring all, tell them you see: observe the king closely


[Chorus]

It affectin many people inna detrimentally

A herdsman gathering fruit ya from a Sycamore Tree

When him be, what situation ya go call him fi be

Nuff staunch criticism ya from past quality

Isaiah 6:5 ah utter, ah say him lips dirty


[Verse 2]

And saw the king's procession, as in dem ten thousand many

And the kingdom of the earth establish ya inna mimicry

Inna pomp and circumstance ya inna royalty

Honor Jah shall dwell among them, himself the Almighty

Go north, where them sit down inna the seat of jealousy

Go south, where them carry dem wealth upon the back of horses to be

From the whole lion land ya where the viper fiery, high

Inna his manners, inna the forum

Grace and ask me naivety

It was a futile attempt, implosion of diplomacy

They say, no believe people weh nah have no integrity

Them nah know if you end up do it again, you do it again

When the nation representation haffi answer fi do it

Deeds not done inna three-piece suit, deeds not done inna high heel

When them guilt, crossroads, have PTSD

Whole world know by now, that warfare is a monstrosity

Entire countries depleted and citizens inna retreat

A whole fleet of refugees from detonation street

Nations fail fi absorb, short shell shock memory


[Chorus]

It affected many people inna detrimentally

A herdsman gathering fruit ya from a Sycamore Tree

When him be, the situation ya go call him fi be

Nuff staunch criticism from past quality

Isaiah 6:5 ah utter, ah say him lips dirty
