Slew Dem Like David
Blessed is the man that endure temptation
For when he's try he shall receive the crown of like
Which the lord has promise to dem that love him
He shall cover me
With his feathers hand
His truth shall be his thy shield buckle at
Goliath fight mi daily
Mi a go slew dem like David
Tell mi father why dem hate mi
Caw mi no do dem nothing Jah
Trust in the lord wid all yo heart
Lead not in your own understanding
Tell mi father why dem hate mi
Caw mi no do dem nothing Jah
Born in a the Garrison
An mi grow up as a sufferer
From mi come out a mi mother belly
Mi haffi fight fi everything wa mi have
Nobody never give mi nothing
Mi shed nuff blood sweat an tears fall
Who Jah Jah bless no man curse
Thank Jah mi past the worst
Ghetto youth never give up
Don't give it up
Money fi a meck, mama house fi build up
Babylon a go give wi a fight
But with the help of Jah Jah there's no stopping yuh no

In a the Garrison 4 pickiny 1 mother
Somebody tell mi weh the father

So mi tell the clans fi tell wanada
Tell shower man fi tell the smuggler
The system design fi conker

But with the help of Jah Jah there's no stopping yuh no
