And it was written
Up in the book of life
Cause the man shall
Endure forever more
[Damian Marley]
Well did you know the pen
Is stronger than di knife
And they can kill you once
But they can't kill you twice
Did you destruction of di flesh is not di ending to life
Fear not of the anti-christ
Did you know that I
Exist before the earth
And did you know my eyes
Are windows to the world
Did you know you can't go a Zion and a wear jheri curls
Can't tell the boys from the girls
The body's just a vehicle
Transporting the soul
It's what's inside the people
Is beauty to behold
Fear not of evil
Everyday dem flesh it grow old
Changes of the time take the toll
[Stephen Marley]
And it was written

A vest around his chest and Rastafari is his name
The gift of everlasting life for us to all sustain

Lesson taught you all forgot

Do you remember Elijah
And his chariot of flames
Same blood that runs tru my veins

Hey dick you wanna lick upon shots
Upon a bloodclot
And fill the block with bummer ass cops
Cops me dun talk you know you watch me walks in
My black woman is getting raped across New York sand
Before another brother's in chalk sand
I 'magine somebody said that just a dead sam
See us, we do the crime we do the time
Y'all get away scott free
So police they gine pop you b'fore you pop me
Cause if you get me you got me you shot me
Know'll lot me carry shotty since moms slap me
Cause my room sloppy
The youngest nigga out the camp is me
But nobody pampered me
So you better don't ramp with me
Fi see me, me don't play plenty
Chicks me blazed many
Raised plenty fi dollars
Storm my impala
Watch a bum holla
Watch 'im run, hit the floor
Told 'im come, come no
Throw ya ganja pon de air
Watch for sticks and stones
Stumbling blocks in piles
Life is one big road
Miles on top of miles
So blessed be the soul
That always remains a child
And most people don't even smile
There's a natural mystic
Blowing in tru the air
So keep it realistic
And always be aware
The truth is crying out
And it's so loud and so clear
But most people won't even hear
Spiritual pollution is in the atmosphere
And with so much confusion
Can one be happy here
The gift of Rastafari is for all man to share
But some would rather to be so unfair
