Max Romeo – Revelation Time
Father, help I to be in a position
Where I can fulfil thy works, oh Jah
I really don’t want to be in opposition
To the leaders, to the Scribes
Or even you Jah Jah
But they should not trim
Dreadlocks, in prison, prison
Murder of the murderers got to stop
They should not trim
Dreadlocks, in prison, prison
Liars and thieves should not be cops
Liars and thieves should not be cops
Revelation time
Wedge up your hammer!
Sharpen up your sickle!
Revelation time
If ever I should be in a position
where I could fulfil thy works, oh Jah
I wouldn’t want to be, a politician
Not you, a sSribes, or a Pharisees
And I would not trim, dreadlocks, in prison
Murder of the murderers I tried and stop
I wouldn’t trim dreadlocks, in prison
Liars and thieves would not be cops
Liars and thieves would not be cops
Revelation time
Wedge up your hammer!
Sharpen up your sickle!
The simplest thing is, “bang, bang, bang”
What is this on our little island?
If every man was equal, you see
There would be none of this poverty
And they could not trim
Dreadlocks, in prison, prison
Victimization would have to stop
They could not trim
Dreadlocks, in prison, prison
Liars and thieves would not be cops
Liars and thieves would not be cops
