Resist Not Evil

Ye resist not evil

Whoever shall smite thee

Will have to face the almighty

Take away my coat and my cloak

Jah have me riches so me never broke

I say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross

Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say (I pray)

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross

Whoa, hm-m

How do I say it in a manner that

Don't seem hype if I say we bring the banner back

Red gold green not a fad, badge of honour that

Defender of the faith fi a fact we deh ya pon attack

Today, tomorrow, man a warrior nuh follow that

Try put a stop to that, but a just a comma dat

Matter fact a so the sentence goes

Never try get revenge from these senseless foes

And I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross

Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross

Me likkle bethren turn 16

Sight up the king and a adjust him dreams

Ones can't overstand a wonder what this means

Develop fear in them heart and them start set fi him

Him tell me (tell me), Jah never make him get defeat

So him move like a gaddy and prevail pon the street

You nuh see it?

A three shot him get fi eat, but him still deh ya stand up pon him feet

Him say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (you say?)

Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way (never)

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (watch me now)

You turn your back on the well when you done drink the water

All the quarrelling it woulda must bring disaster

Fight against your brother just offending the master

Demma coulda join it woulda must kill me faster

Oh, I seen the strategy before, fi drain I energy hypocrisy fi sure

Father, please take my nemesis away from Jah premises

A me say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say (Selassie)

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (Jah, yo)

Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way

In anything I do and say

I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
