Promise Land
Well, then yeah, well Alborosie deh on yah, ooh
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Look at me my brother
(My brother)
And tell me what you see
Look at you right now and tell me
Would you early want to be
A criminal, a daughter or a lawyer
Or di next U.S. president
A policeman or a shotter or a gardener
Or di next church excellence?
Just make up your mind and move forward
Don't live your life in the past
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Talk to Jah, my brother
(My brother)
And just redeem yourself
Put God first, stand up in Jah light
Don't be a empty glass you 'pon di shelf
What a joy run knowing da tomorrow
Will be a brighter day for you
You will be rewarded by di Father
For all the things that you do
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from, ay
Look at me, my brother
(My brother)
And tell me what you see
Look at you right now and tell me
Would you early want to be
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Look at me my brother
(My brother)
And tell me what you see
Look at you right now and tell me
Would you early want to be
A criminal, a daughter or a lawyer
Or di next U.S. president
A policeman or a shotter or a gardener
Or di next church excellence?
Just make up your mind and move forward
Don't live your life in the past
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
Children we're heading to di promise land
Know your roots, know where you coming from
