Roots and Culture

Now here comes a special request

To each and everyone

Especially those of my brethren

Who forget where they are coming from, you know

This song is called Roots and Culture

Skep-skebbe-dep-skep

Skebbe-debbe-dep-skebbe-dep-skep-scoye

Skep-skebbe-dep-skep

Skebbe-debbe-dep-skebbe-dep-skep-scoye

Don't you bite the hands that feed you

My brethren no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you

Don't you burn your bridges them behind you

My brethren no

Don't you burn your bridges them behind you

'Cause if you burn your bridges down

That is the wrong thing to do

The good you do today will surely live after you

I say

Don't you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you

Skebbe-dep-skebbe-dep-skep

Skebbe-debbe-dep-skebbe-dep-skep-scoye

Skep-skebbe-dep-skep

Skebbe-debbe-dep-skebbe-dep-skep-scoye

Remember di days of bread and water man

Remember di days of hunger

Don't forget your roots and culture

My brethren say

Remember your place of shelter

'Cause if you deal with war man

You cyaan run far

You deal wid grudge

You a go melt like fudge, me say

Don't you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you

Don't you burn your bridges them behind you my brethren no

Don't you burn your bridges them behind you

'Cause if you deal with war man you cyaan run far

You deal wid grudge

You a go melt like fudge, me say

Don't you bite the hands that feed you my brethren say

Don't you bite the hands that feed you no

Remember your roots and culture my brethren say

Remember your place of shelter

Don't forget the days of bread and water man

Remember di days of hunger

Cah you never miss the water 'til the well runs dry

You spit inna di sky

It a go, inna yuh eye me say

Don't you bite the hands that feed you my brethren no

Don't you bite the hands that feed you
