Description
Ras Shiloh & Gentleman – Blessing Of Jah
Hey Shiloh, get the love that’s so divine
And the system, so unkind
A what at ’em man
Never put a fire upon dem
Where is the love yo – boom!
Yeah.. now this gonna take a Ras Shiloh and Gentleman again
A mi lookin’ upon to the so called leaders
Searching for a changin’ of plans
Oh yes now – a what gwaan now?
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message of Jah
To set Jah children free from captivity
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message oh Jah
To set Jah children free
Why is it so hard for us
We find it hard to trust
The system is so unkind
Always subjecting what is mine
No carnal mind, no mankind
Don’t want to be led by the blind
Tell dem fi go seek and find
We will rise and shine, before we run outta time
We hear ’bout dem world order, and dem bombing
Wonder who can take it and stand up inna di famine
What the United Nations and world police planning
‘Cause righteous people dem keep banning
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message of Jah
To set the captivity free
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message oh Jah
To set Jah children free
Right now you betta know, boy
That love it a the order
No bad mind can cross over we border
Wickedness so narrow. righteousness much broader
So tell me what you really rather
Da one ya hotta the ten fire side and ten lava
No Babylon ship can come dock up inna we harbour
And I-man know seh Jah would never let we starve ya
Hungry, cook up banana and some greater cassava
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message of Jah
To set Jah children free
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message oh Jah
To set Jah children free from captivity
So one more time me tell dem sing
No carnal mind, no mankind
Don’t want to be led by the blind
Tell dem fi go seek and find
We will rise and shine, before we run outta time
There’s no need for segregation
Let us all uplift the nation
I know and you know that Jah is for everyone
Tell me where is the love that Jah Jah has granted?
For so long you’ve been taking advantage
Never will you have Jah Jah children a ramp with
Hey Shiloh! We bun down your killing spree
And bun down your rampage
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message of Jah
To set Jah children free from captivity
My eyes, behold the blessings of Jah
I’ve told the message oh Jah
To set Jah children free
