[Gentleman, UB40, BANTU Crew - Rude Hold It Down lyrics]
Behold all righteousness everlasting ya man
Make we root out the source of
Injustice where dem day man
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
Fill them with feeling straight
From the heart
Dealing with healing will set you apart
Respecting their meaning releasing the dove
Will chill them with kindness
Instil them with love
Don't lose it Rudie get high on the buzz
Remember how kindness
Could fill you with love
The sun could be shining
With blue skies above
In love with the kindness, so kind of in love
Yes you gotta open up and realize it
No make no sense at all
Fi go fuss and a go fight
Your guns and your knives paralyze
Why you nah just let them
Fall and stop terrorize i
Open up your eyes and realize
It no make no sense
At all to have a heart out of ice
Your guns and your knives just a paralyze
Why you no just let dem fall
You gotta take some time look around and
Then tell me what you see
If you no blind nah bother tell
Me you no see JAH beauty
Love and kindness it a di key
Think before you act up your superiority
Mankind a come a long way why you wann
Give it up and throw it all away, away
What dem a promote up everyday we go stay
Confident no matter what dem a say
Give thanks and blessings caus
JAH bless another day
Our meditation will never let I go astry
Dirty Babylon we will never obey
Dem can't tell we
What to do because we do it our way
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
This is a serious message to all bad men
You can never emancipate when hit
And run is your plan
Constructing evil structures as a
Device for your work
I can see the next man trembling
In a state of shock
Hold it down peace is bound to come around
Push it up believe in love that’s the word
E simi simi simi
F’okon bale cooli temper area boys
F’okon bale why di posing with the noise
Join the voice with a choice not
The one with a Royce
Raise your spiritn in the battle of
The righteous ‘gainst the evil
Free your mimnd from the hustle and
Di trouble and the schackles
Better stop all the miming and
The killing of JAH people
Caus too many of us are
Dying tears are multiplying
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
Make we root out the source of
Injustice where dem day man
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
Fill them with feeling straight
From the heart
Dealing with healing will set you apart
Respecting their meaning releasing the dove
Will chill them with kindness
Instil them with love
Don't lose it Rudie get high on the buzz
Remember how kindness
Could fill you with love
The sun could be shining
With blue skies above
In love with the kindness, so kind of in love
Yes you gotta open up and realize it
