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

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
