  Shags man 'bout here

  Give thanks and praise to the Father
  Yes, Him a the Heaven and the earth rightful ruler
  (Ooh, do you hear me?)
  Give thanks and praise to the Father
  Yes, Him a the Heaven and the earth rightful ruler
 
 
  Well, I and I can't believe weh gwaan pon the father land
  All the troubles and the trial and the tribulation, behold
  Is in trouble, come inna starvation
  You see them spend the money pon the nuclear weapon
 
 
  Wish a segregation and seperate the nation
  How can you judge a man by him complexion?
  You see them deh ya come, come oppress the youth man
  Put your hand inna the air and praise the Almighty One
  And just

  You see them deh ya disrespect them elder, ay
  Man as a youth man I got to prosper
 
 
  Denegation is the key, what is the key to open law?
  Them know why you bought no book a, only call the mafia
  On the way to make it now is just to be a hustler
  We go back some croquette and plant some ganja
 
 
  Some a them a work 'round and bleed while people chatter
  And that's how brought them up twenty baby mother
  Can support fashimist, can support a diaper
  Can support a nobiliar, support a sorter
  Come, come take it from Shaggy, the rub-a-dub teacher
  Oo loodof

  Get up every man and read the Holy Bible
  Listen to the preach around the top brand noddle

  Kill me dead, another black man shall live as thief
  On the way fi get me now him shoot me with a rifle
