Speak the truth and speak it ever
Love God and live
My only destination, yeah!
I heard your speeches (your talk is cheap)
Man, and your empty promises
(promises are comfort to a fool)
But now that I know your words are dangerous, yeah
See them deceiving
Man, the babes and the sucklings
But woe unto the shepherds
Who leadeth Jah sheep astray - I heard them say
(A) They are only bribing
Lord, the babes and the sucklings - Loroh Lord
Making promises, yeah!
They can't keep and them never will
I see so much innocent paying for the guilty
But the blind is a victim, in the land of the evil-
sighted - yeah!
Where there is no vision
Man, the people suffer
(Weepin and a wailin)
See them cornered by their judgements
And they're consumed, yes
By their hatred - Aye!
They fighting to control our destiny
But we fighting for our justice and equality
So many rights
They turned to wrong
Because of the laws of their society
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Dangerous)
Repeat A
Oh no no
Don't worry about the pretty things
You hear them say, them say, them say
Don't trust no enemy
Can't trust no friend
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
They'll be working in the dark of the night
Lord, yeah, yeah
(Slippin and sliding, peepin and hiding)
They'll be planning and scheming
How to take Jah life, yeah!
Their words are dangerous
I know their words are dangerous
Can't set your trust in men (trust Jah)
Don't set your trust in man, oy (in Jah we trust)
Don't set your trust in men, no (trust Jah)
Can't set your trust in men (in Jah we trust)
Well I would rather live up on the house top
Than livin in a house of confusion
Rather is a dinner of herb, where love is
Than a stalled ox where hatred there with, yeah
Say their words are dangerous
I know their words are dangerous
No! No! No!
Don't set your trust in men, no (trust Jah)
Can't set your trust in men (trust Jah)
No, No, No!
Don't set your trust in men (in Jah we trust)
No! Don't set your trust in men
I n I who trusteth in the Most High
Shall be like holy Mount Zion
(Who Jah bless)
That cannot be removed
(No one curse)
But abideth for I ver
And For I ver
(Who Jah bless)
And for I ver
(No one curse)
