Better Dayz

Stand firm and don't break now
Stand firm and don't break now
Ma I know you wanna break down
Night's over and the sun's out

They belly full; yes they only piggin'
Oil spill inna water where po' people ha to fish in
No money; no food to buss pot in kitchen
Neo-slavery by di hands a politicians
Manipulation by leaders of religion
Rasta a war Muslim right inside my very nation
Whatever happen to peace is di mission; unity over division?
Tell me what cloudin' di vision, aye!!!
Maybe is drugs, most notably the cocaine
Brought in by the upper crust who make all the big gains
That's why rasta have to blaze up a new flame
Sent from Zion to incinerate the system

This is just a catharsis
Until He decides to send The Gift
Looking to the skies, Your Holiness
This Earth's become an Abyss

Better days are comin
Jah know we tired ah runnin'
Better days are comin'
Prepare for His second comin

My mental approach is totally different
I predict everything on the defence
Gangsta use di money to build schools and pavements
Upgrade the community in the words of David Mohammed
And if di youth stiff necked, shot they bax
Cuz Babylon nuh fraid to lick ah shot
Dem a plant weapon and say you shoot back
And if yuh survive cramp yuh likkle tail in a cell box
Genocide is real and so is gentrification
Be mindful of mental deterioration
Stay rooted and rebuke diffidence
The future is secured; I see nuff babies in play pens

This is just a catharsis
Until He decides to send The Gift
Looking to the skies, Your Holiness
This Earth's become an Abyss

Better days are comin'
Jah know we tired ah runnin'
Better days are comin'
Prepare for His second comin

Probably say ah speak too much
Young chatterbox
Ah have a labba mouth ent?
Heed my advice cuz opulence is contagious
Don't emulate those infected by greed and lust
They don't understand the concept of ash to dust
They rotten inside like a carcass
That the Lion of Judah left on the plains of the Abyss
We a follow one Master who resides in our spirits

We waitin on our better days
Waitin on our better days
Patience, patience that is the way
Patience, patience that is the way
