[Intro]
Selassie I, gui-i-i-ide I and I-I
[Chorus]
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, mi back against di wall
When man need dem, dem nuh deh deh fi mi dawg
Just mi gun and ganja, dat alone mi have
Di gyal weh mi a fuck, when problem come, she gone
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, pon you alone mi call
Mi a beg yuh do cover mi under yuh arms
Guide mi madda and all a mi fam
Just another prayer from another shorter
[Verse 1]
More time dem swear pon dem life seh mi haffi dead, a dat dem seh
But Jah Jah by mi si-ide
Even squeeze up еh chigger pon eh zigger, mi nuh gеt hurt
Wonder if a science still deh yah a smi-ile
Might nuh hurt mi physically but mi traumatize, paranoid
Nuh trust nobody but miself, a mi and I
Father God, beg yuh di strength inna dem yah time
Nuh do dem nuttin' but a just true dem red of eye
Di obeah dem work, it nuh work out
Mama, seh a prayer fi mi inna church house
Everybody cyaan good a suh di world go
Who yuh love a dem a hurt yuh
[Chorus]
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, mi back against di wall
When man need dem, dem nuh deh deh fi mi dawg
Just mi gun and ganja, dat alone mi have
Di gyal weh mi a fuck, when problem come, she gone
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, pon you alone mi call
Mi a beg yuh do cover mi under yuh arms
Guide mi madda and all a mi fam
Just another prayer from another shorter
[Verse 2]
Jah, yuh change mi life and mi haffi give thanks fah
Sickness free, nuh diabetes nor cancer
Di more dem fight mi done mi gain strength, now mi stronger
Wicked people get conquered
[Chorus]
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, mi back against di wall
When man need dem, dem nuh deh deh fi mi dawg
Just mi gun and ganja, dat alone mi have
Di gyal weh mi a fuck, when problem come, she gone
Yeah, hear mi, Jah Jah, pon you alone mi call
Mi a beg yuh do cover mi under yuh arms
Guide mi madda and all a mi fam
Just another prayer from another shorter
[Outro]
More time dem swear pon dem life seh mi haffi dead, a dat dem seh
But Jah Jah by mi si-ide
Even squeeze up eh chigger pon eh zigger, mi nuh get hurt
Wonder if a science still deh yah a smi-ile
Might nuh hurt mi physically but mi traumatize, paranoid
Nuh trust nobody but miself, a mi and I
Father God, beg yuh di strength inna dem yah time
Nuh do dem nuttin' but a just true dem red of eye
