Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Jah, Jah is real
Jah, Jah is real
[Verse 2]
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
[Verse 3]
Every day you get up and you wish to have a meal
Now you get a cut and you wish to have it heal
And still you can not accept that Jah, Jah is real
Tell me Mr. Man what's the deal
[Verse 4]
You say you have everything sign and seal
Thought you won the case but no, you a-appeal
You are the one who couldn't hear
Now you are the one to feel
Evidently clear we chopping down your shield
[Verse 5]
Dem ain't going nowhere, no time soon
Dem corrupt the east and now dem turn it to the moon
Plant in ya garden and wish that it will bloom
Still you're singing Satan tunes
[Verse 6]
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
[Verse 7]
Mother Earth was meant for man and woman to stay
Me find out nuff a them a drifting away
Children can't even find a place fi play
Birds can't find no seed, horses no hay
I see the weavers weaving but dem income delay
Still me see them searching for a brighter day
And now me come fi give it to you right away
Do you hear what I say?
[Verse 8]
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
So gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
[Verse 9]
Well then
Give me the mic there for a moment, make me talk to dem
And watch the Eden them a scatter when we walk to them
And if you know you are not guilty
Stand up and don't you run
No, no to all my foes and friends
You may live to see today but you not know the end
Just read the writings on the wall, it's a message we send
And Babylon will never live to stop the rising of Jah son
Well, then, then
[Verse 10]
Jah, Jah is real
Jah, Jah is real
[Verse 11]
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
Dem gone, so far away
Dem gone, the whole a dem ago regret it one day
[Verse 12]
Every day you get up and you wish to have a meal
Now you get a cut and you wish to have it heal
And still you can not accept that Jah, Jah is real
Tell me Mr. Man what's the deal
[Verse 13]
You say you have everything sign and seal
Thought you won the case, now they want appeal
You are the one who couldn't hear
Now you are the one to feel
Evidently clear we chopping down your shield
