Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Also from the new album
And this one is called Glass House
[Verse 2]
Said, if you live in a glass house, don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, brother, don't throw blows
Said, if you live in a glass house, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, brother, don't throw blows
[Verse 3]
Harm no man, yeah
Let no man harm you
Do unto others as they would do to you
And to every baldhead
Respect the Rastaman
'Cause he's the only man left on creation
[Verse 4]
And if you live in a glasshouse, don't throw stones, yeah
And if you can't take blows, brother, don't throw blows
Said, if you live in a glass house, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, sister, don't throw blows
[Verse 5]
Most don't see I looking so humble
Would like to try something
But your world would crumble
'Cause behind my back
You like to grumble
And before my face
You always a-humble, yeah
[Verse 6]
And if you live in a glasshouse, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, brother (Don't throw blows)
Said, if you live in a glass house, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, don't throw blows
[Verse 7]
You build your world on
Lies and illusion
But you never know that
This is the conclusion
No chance, no hope at all
Who can sin's a-goin'
'Cause you never know, know that
The truth was showing
[Verse 8]
And if you live in a glasshouse, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, brother, don't throw blows
Said, if you live in a glass house, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, don't throw blows
[Verse 9]
I'm in this world, yeah, to give Jah praise, yeah
And all I ask for is longer days
I come to do the things that are right
And if you don't like my doings, we're gonna fight every time
[Verse 10]
And if you live in a glasshouse, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, don't throw blows
Said, if you live, live, live, live, live in a glass house (Don't throw stones)
Come on, whoa
And if I can't, can't, can't take blows, don't throw blows
[Verse 11]
Said, if you live, live, live, live, live in a glass house (Don't throw stones)
And if you can't take blows, brother, don't throw blows
Said, if you live in a glass house, you don't throw stones
And if you can't take blows, don't throw blows
