Kabaka Pyramid, Chronixx - Blessed Is The Man lyrics

Warning warning been warning
Them from morning (ay)
Hear the voice of the most
I Jah Ras Tafari calling remember I tell you
Blessed is the man
Blessed is Selassie I (Rastafari)
Memba I tell you (King Selassie I)
Blessed is the man
Blessed is Selassie I (ay) haile

Ithiopia stretch forth her hands and gave
Us the redeemer of all man
Defender of the faith, and an Ethiopian, he's
The captain, the chief, field marshal
Sergeant bowing at his feet, 72 nation
Ras Makonnen was crowned conquering lion
(king) ababa Janhoy father of Africans
With Empress Menen i stand at his right hand

Meanwhile, inna Jamaica land
Whole heap a trial and tribulation


Chastisement was upon all African
Bustamante seh kill all rasta man
Wah kinda Selassie that unuh a call 'pon
Trim dem and bring the whole a dem a station
Never in the name of my king of England
Will I ever live to see
The rasta man redemption

But when the two six clash
That's when the plane land
King of all Kings touch down in Kingston
Would you believe, so said
So done, Bustamante blind
Couldn't see when the King come
Some a dem deaf and mi seh some a dem dumb
When them rise up against
Haile Selassie kingdom
You politician with yuh evil agenda
Any how yuh diss jus' remember

Remember I tell you blessed is the man
Blessed is Selassie I (Rastafari)
Memba I tell you (remember)
Blessed is the man (so blessed)
Blessed is Selassie I haile

Dem seh blessed is the man that walketh not
Inna the counsel of the vagabond dem
Selassie seh fi dash it, put the fire pon dem
Lava splash, lightening flash
Thunder crash upon dem

Queen Elizabeth and dem a plan it from when
A seh Jamaica prison we a drop it pon dem
'Cah fi we prison yard
Man a pack it from when
Tell Cameron seh that is not we problem

Pope Francis and all him Vatican friend
A spot we tourbus and put
The tracking pon dem
A check we schedule and dem a
Map it from when 'thru
The power of the trinity we slap it pon dem

Selassie I a God and we a God's children
Eventually we grow to be Gods till then
We affi gwaan do the
Works wah Selassie intend

Empress Menen she a the strength fi women
Divine feminine that a the vibe weh she bring
When Sec mek a sting, she destroy everything
Yet still inna the womb life is within
She a di melanin absorbing light in my skin

Haile Selassie slew Goliath with the sling
Mussolini foot get tie up with the string
Dem seh them require mi fi sing
Nah follow them evil agenda
Beg unuh remember

Remember I tell yuh (Rastafari)
Blessed is the man
Blessed is Selassie I (Haile Selassie I)
Memba I tell you (hail him I)
Blessed is the man (so blessed)
Blessed is Selassie I

Ooohh (hail him I)
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
(Rastafari)
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
(hail him I)
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
(Rastafari)
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man
Blessed is the man, blessed is the man

Bablyon could never take away
Jah Jah blessings, never
Rastafari goodness endureth forever
Through all generations
Even in the 21st century
Ethiopia still unconquered
And the Lion of Judah still slew Goliath
Yeah remember please remember, I tell yuh
So, blessed is the man blessed is the man
Blessed is Selassie I haile
