Lyrics
I, I
I waan yuh low di Rasta Man
(Yuh see Natty dreadlocks)
Yeah, yeah
Di teacher seh fi trim wi natty dreadlocks
Dem nuh waan nuh Rasta Man inna dem school
Hmm, remove di natty from yuh head top
Rasta cyaan learn di golden rule
Yute gwaan hold on to yuh culture
Grow yuh natty and be proud of yuh roots, oh gosh
Babylon evil agenda
Watch fi Babylon colonial rule, mmm
Cyaan believe down a yaad, dis still a gwaan
Seems like di mentality nuh change
They claim up the well from him farm, put chains on him arms
Then dem lock him up and put him inna jail
Capture Pinnacle and then dem put it up fi sale
Over three thousand Rasta displaced, yeah
Must have done something wrong
Why mi cyaan flash mi natty where I come from
Yet still we carry on
The works of the Conquering Lion
Mi seh dem waan fi trim wi natty dreadlocks
Dem nuh waan nuh Rasta Man inna dem school
Hmm, remove di natty from yuh head top
Rasta cyaan learn di golden rule
Yute gwaan hold on to yuh culture
Grow yuh natty and be proud of yuh roots, oh gosh
Babylon evil agenda
Watch fi Babylon colonial rule
Keznamdi
Yuh hear wah gwaan pon news now
Dem seh new law mek inna di courthouse
Dem seh no more natty on the school grounds
Seh yuh African roots haffi groom out
Mi seh it sick mi to mi stomach, haffi scream out
Dem prefer when di daughter hair dem cream out
Nuh wonder suh much a di yute dem start fi bleach out
Look like Jamaican parliament it need a clean out
Rasta ease out
Must have done something wrong
Why mi cyaan flash mi natty where I come from
Yet still we carry on
The works of the Conquering Lion
Mi seh dem waan fi trim wi natty dreadlocks
Dem nuh waan nuh Rasta Man inna dem school
Hmm, remove di natty from yuh head top
Rasta cyaan learn di golden rule
Yute gwaan hold on to yuh culture
Grow yuh natty and be proud of yuh roots, oh gosh
Babylon evil agenda
Watch fi Babylon colonial rule
Watch it
Mi seh to
Yute grow unnu natty
Unnu grow unnu natty
Ba-dam-speng, unnu grow unnu natty
Unnu grow unnu natty
Ki-ri-bi-beng, unnu grow unnu natty
Unnu grow unnu natty
Ba-dam-beng, unnu grow unnu natty
Unnu grow unnu natty, aya!
