False Prophet (Snake)
Dem never si mi wid no turban pon mi head
But man a bobo same way, natty congo same way
Dem never si mi in a nuh jungle
But man a gorilla same way
But nuff a dem a snake in a lion clothe
Dem a run the church and the hoe houses
Selassie High for bid
Rasta could a never lose dem bald head wig
Nuff a dem a snake in a lion clothe
Dem a run the church and the hoe houses
Selassie High for bid
Rasta could a never lose dem bald head wig
(1)
The good haffi go suffer fi the bad
A never me seh suh
A Jah the man weh give him the most knowledge
A the longest liver
False prophesies wid dem big offices
All dem do a give basket fi carry water
But I have a appetite fi the truth
That's why mi warn the youth
Cause Jah, Jah, seh you a go know dem by the fruit
How you fi give a man a gun and tell him nuh shoot
Is like telling him the tree don't grow from the root
(Repeat (2)
True wi nuh fabricated some a dem hate wi
But tell dem seh wi alright, the real people rate wi
Tell dem seh wi naw put on nuh show, nuh need nuh mask
If you nuh waan the truth nuh question you nuh fi ask
Selassie High know by wi self wi in a wi class
Just true money meck nuff a dem lost
Wi buck dem pon the journey and then wi surpassed
Almight a mi don, the devil a your boss
(Repeat)
But man a bobo same way, natty congo same way
Dem never si mi in a nuh jungle
But man a gorilla same way
But nuff a dem a snake in a lion clothe
Dem a run the church and the hoe houses
Selassie High for bid
Rasta could a never lose dem bald head wig
Nuff a dem a snake in a lion clothe
