Daseca ha
Daseca dAdaseca
Selassie I a Jah alone (Most High)
Woah oh no

So i don't wanna be at the wayside
For hypocrites come cry at my graveside
I don't wanna be don't wanna be a memory
Please Jah protect me from my enemies so
I don't wanna be at the wayside
You no see dem want come
Cry at your graveside i don't wanna be
Don't wanna be a memory
Please Jah protect me from my enemies

Dem say the brave don't live forever
But the cautious don't live at all
Be careful of the ones who
Want fi see you fall
Me still stand up pon mi foot dem
All now me haffi know where fi put dem, yeah
The mansion in the sky, dem want fi
See me die but me overlook dem, yeah
Me dem want fi blow 'way like paper
Me no know a what me do dutty nehgah
A true me dress clean everyday
Dem a watch me make CREAM everyday yeah
As the star in the sky
Dem can't see me die nor go inna no clay

So i don't wanna be at the wayside
For hypocrites come cry at my graveside
I don't wanna be don't wanna be a memory
Please Jah protect me from my enemies so
I don't wanna be at the wayside
You no see dem want come
Cry at your graveside i don't wanna be
Don't wanna be a memory
Please Jah protect me from my enemies

Mi eyeball a the sharpest weapon
Look, fi see what dem deh pon
Yeah, some of dem sell you out
Fi police shell you out
No trust dem fi a second
Me no really know what dem reckon
Mi music a kick dem like Beckham
Dem no want me stack dough
Unuh no want mi cash flow?
Give dem something fi check on (No)
Dem can't stop mi shine
Definitely can't stop mi time
Work so hard, give me what's mine
Dem can't stop the star from shine

So i don't wanna be at the wayside
For hypocrites come cry at my graveside
I don't wanna be don't wanna be a memory
Please Jah protect me from my enemies so
I don't wanna be at the wayside
You no see dem want come
Cry at your graveside i don't wanna be
Don't wanna be don't wanna be
Please Jah protect me from my enemies yeah
