daddy rings - rise with jah lyrics
[intro]
i and i greet in the name of his imperial majesty
emperor haile selassie i
jah rastafari
[chorus]
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
[first verse]
i’ve seen them done it once
and so they did it twice
but still i trod along into de footsteps of christ
taking control of the de mic
now masses heard my voice
from the heart of de ghetto
been there, paid that price
now, i’m holding, unfolding powers and might
watch mi while i’m bowling
come at you with the right
see the footprints of vanity making mark in de ice
and desperate people keep warring for a price
[chorus]
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
[second verse]
what else can you expect in a world disconnected
a world of deceit, destruction and hatred
when people would laugh at you when they thought you fainted
never knew half the truth jesus christ the saint did
be still and know that wisdom clothe de naked
and wisdom and knowledge will always be related
for those who learn from de picture that was painted
for those telling half de truth only to be a acquainted
[chorus]
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
[third verse]
from de north to de south to de east to de west side
share what wi have and wi gave them the best side
coming through harder than when a car make a test drive
a few can withstand us so why is it de rest hide
in de battle for redemption, always de best died
wanna change the world
well de media and de press tried
s+x was made for baby now it’s only for the next ride
de truth hurt dem so much now even the best lied
only for de money why some hanging on de left side
causing all my people to be tripping on the x side
people who were straight
they are now willing to take bribe
telling dem ’bout your glorious world on the next side
all i’m saying people trouble just step wide
continue to play around
you wanna draw back for the ex+tribe
surround them like a beehive
show dem de real life
king selassie i and i a chill out pon de sea side
[chorus]
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
[first verse]
i’ve seen them done it once
and so they did it twice
but still i trod along
in de footsteps of christ
taking control of the de mic
masses heard my voice
from the heart of de ghetto
been there, paid de price
now, i’m holding, unfolding powers and might
watch mi while i’m bowling
come at you with the right
see the footprints of vanity make mark in de ice
and desperate people keep warring for de price
[chorus]
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah, rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
this is how it ought to be
rise wid jah and jah will rise with thee
it was said in prophecy
what is to be must be
[outro]
yeah
(ought to be, ought to be)
tell dem already
tell dem already
and i will forever tell dem
let dem know
what is to be must be
rise with jah, aye aye
