Roots lyrics
Dem cant tek mi soun yanna
hey yea yea. heyeaa yeaa.. oh oh
OH.
hey yeaaa-yeaa
So u beat them
So u mistreat them
So u lock them down and u think that you've won
Chorus:
But dem ah hole a mediation (Dem ah hold a mediation)
Out inna I-ration (out inna I-ration)
Dem a follow Rastafari and a live, ah live out right
So tell me whe u a go do now (So tell me whe u a go do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now (Tell me wat u gonna do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now that di youth ah hold dem
roots
You can't water down and dilute
You can't hide di trut from di yout
You can steal di fruit not the root
Cos di yout ah hold dem roots
Hey yeah yeaa..oh ohh (instrumental)
Give dem cartoons (Cartoons) to turn dem fool (Turn
them fool)
You poison their foods and u think that you've won
Chorus:
But dem ah hole a mediation (Dem ah hold a mediation)
Out inna I-ration (out inna I-ration)
Dem a follow Rastafari and a live, ah live out right
So tell me whe u a go do now (So tell me whe u a go do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now (Tell me wat u gonna do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now that di youth ah hold dem
roots
You can't water down and dilute
You can't hide di trut from di yout
You can steal di fruit not the root
Cos di yout ah hold dem roots
(instrumental)
Come with yuh negative spirit
But di youths dem nah feel it
Come around with ur white lies trying to blind
everyone's eyes
Chorus:
But dem ah hole a mediation (Dem ah hold a mediation)
Out inna I-ration (out inna I-ration)
Dem a follow Rastafari and a live, ah live out right
So tell me whe u a go do now (So tell me whe u a go do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now (Tell me wat u gonna do)
Tell me wat u gonna do now that di youth ah hold dem
roots
You can't water down and dilute
You can't hide di trut from di yout
You can steal di fruit not the root
Cos di yout ah hold dem roots
You can't water down and dilute
You can't hide di trut from di yout
You can steal di fruit not the root
Cos di yout ah hold dem roots
Live up now yout, live yu now, live up now. Hey yea
yea, live up now yout, live up now. Yout hold your
root!
Hey dem can't water down and dilute
You can't hide di trut from di yout
You can steal di fruit not the root
Cos di yout ah hold dem roots
(sing to fade)
