(Chorus)

Your system a peak outa world conscience

Selassie I of knowledge the wealth so drink of the well

Starting out who gidem people fe sell

Where does that leave the black man in the west

Haile Selassie I the first of Ethiopian, say yes

Watch the middle east vibration Israel

(Verse)

Seen

The principle of the king is steady advancing

The whole thing still come down to one signature executive

Them coulda name Prime Minister Premier President or anything

As the singular leadership for cohesion purposes

Is whether them is a democracy or a republic

Or some semblance of the two things intertwined

Them say them a capitalist really a socialist

When the government supplement all national industry and control it

Universal human rights already spoke gift

Now humanize and civilize what you approach is

From the time them pen to paper laws with them goose quill

You can see where the supreme court show them prejudice

(Chorus)

Your system a peak outa world conscience

Selassie I of knowledge the wealth so drink of the well

Starting out who gidem people fe sell

Where does that leave the black man in the west

Haile Selassie I the first of Ethiopian, say yes

Watch the middle east vibration Israel

(Verse)

Your immediate frame of reference is shortsighted

As state by state contagion is setting in

Ina Libya the revolution coincide with

Tempestuous weather conditions and a delayed ship

As portents in history are not to be played with

With socio-economic conditions stagnated

Your concessions at the podium are belated

How do you condemn a ripple effect and topple your own interests

Between rock stone and a hard place with damage to assess

They naw leggo dem grip inna selfishness yet

Forget the Africans inna the root of how you gather your wealth

Resources confiscated and people dispossessed

And can't seem to get back their dignity yet

Like the whole world ready fe go down inna bad man flex

Disruption and blockage of email and text

You done pay all your money and you still get disconnect

Have people they fe figure out how you habla dialect

A pressure the middle class outa tax fe collect

Like the knockout the wind outa the middle solar plex

How much people a go tek before people get vex

Them see the volatility climate and button still a press

Not to mention the press how them beat down the press

Rasta order you know fe humble and quickly issue address

Like everywhere is war and random dead

And anarchists a love it how the chaos a spread

(Chorus)

Your system a peak outa world conscience

Selassie I of knowledge the wealth so drink of the well

Starting out who gidem people fe sell

Where does that leave the black man down ya in the west

Haile Selassie I the first of Ethiopian, say yes

Watch the middle east vibration Israel
