Jah send I as a messenger
To teach the youths about roots and culture
An tell di masses fi remember Jah
Dats all I a deal wid, iy, yiy, well

Dem forget Jah and put dem woman up front
There's a time and a place for everything, woh

An a talk bout how dem buss gatlin
But I don't have no time to mingle in sin
'Cause I
