Big Mountain - Resistance lyrics

Resistance, Resistance, Resistance
Resistance there's no time to worry
There's no time to rest
We've come such a long way
So let's try to hold the best you know
Jah Jah is planning on evils demise
So don't you be confused with the price
Always remember that
We know that Jah kingdom come
No we ain't gonna just
Abandon our conscience, no
You see the master of judgment
Jah Jah know about that
The poor man is the innocent one
The poor man is the innocent one
The strugglin' community
Leave behind those times we
Spent on compromise
Let your rebel spirit free

Resistance, because we know what's
Right from wrong
Resistance, we've been strugglin' too long
Resistance, you know the people
Must come first
Resistance, cause we're just doing
Jah Jah work

Roots man knows it, the bingi man is wise
All your modern ways don't inspire me
Jah Jah guide i build a fire boil my tea
I till the soil plant my seed
Jah creations all I need to fulfill my dreams
They'll try to seduce your soul with
Temptations of fame and riches
Wine and dine you about the town
Try to intoxicate your visions
Ahh, foolish pride
I would just as soon avoid all that jive
No, we cannot achieve our goals backbiting
No, we cannot achieve our goals in deceit
No, we cannot achieve our goals compromising
Let your rebel spirit free

Resistance, because we know what's
Right from wrong
Resistance, and we've been strugglin'
For too long
Resistance, the people must come first
Resistance, 'cause we're just doing
Jah Jah work
Resistance, these are the days of purpose
Resistance, it's time to capture
Your will for justice
Resistnace, oh my people embrace your destiny
Resistnace, we've got to culture
Love and peace
Resistance, oh my people shine, shine, shine
