Testo Roots and Culture - Shabba Ranks

Testo della canzone Roots and Culture (Shabba Ranks), tratta dall'album Strictly the Best, Vol. 2

A so you stay
You black think one way
But I'm not a one way DJ
Come in to sound
Get that?
Hear this!
Shabba Ranking, reggae people's calling out
People from east, west, north, and south
Say I'm the MC with the nasty mouth
Dem feel like it's pure slackness alone I can talk about
I know mi roots and culture (Murderer)
Who is the root Robert Nesta? (Murderer)
And Bunny Wailer follow after? (Murderer)
It is music mi charge for (Murderer)
Look how the world a start suffer (Murderer)
What a black people under pressure (Murderer)
Some talk this and some talk that
Say everything from Shabba mouth is slack
I love roots and reality straight to the max
Because I'm a article I'll a bash
I love mi roots and culture (Murderer)
To teach all the youngster (Murderer)
Honor your mother and father (Murderer)
So that your days will be longer (Murderer)
Some talk this and some talk that
Say everything from Shabba mouth is slack
I love roots and reality straight to the max
Because I'm a article I'll a bash
Some talk this and some talk that
Who nuff of dem a fight 'gainst slackness lyrics
You haffi please John Public
When you're dealing with the reggae music
Shabba Ranking, you a murder (Murderer)
And it is music you charge for (Murderer)
Want to be a musical ambassador (Murderer)
I'm going teach all the youngster (Murderer)
Hear this!
Some of dem a bawl how dem waan culture
And some of dem waan people be vulgar
I'd rather to stick to I culture
Than to be a dirty character
I love mi roots and culture (Murderer)
I'm going teach all the youngster (Murderer)
It's a new page I'll turn over (Murderer)
Teach dem just like a teacher (Murderer)
Make dem listen to me like a pastor (Murderer)
Woii, oii!
Shabba Ranking, reggae people's calling out
People from east, west, north, and south
Say I'm the MC with the nasty mouth
Dem feel like it's pure slackness alone I can talk about
Know mi roots and culture (Murderer)
See how black people a suffer (Murderer)
It's what a black people under pressure (Murderer)
Just because we don't stick together (Murderer)
Woii, oii!
United we stand and divided we fall
Black man, know yourself before your back is against the wall
Ten time rise and ten time fall
But Shabba is stronger than the Great China Wall
Know mi roots and culture (Murderer)
Is a new page mi turn over (Murderer)
Make up mi mind to teach the youngster (Murderer)
Teach the youth dem like a teacher (Murderer)
Make dem listen to the rags like a pastor (Murderer)
Some talk this and some talk that
Say everything from mi mouth is slack
I love roots and reality straight to the max
Mi can't understand how black a kill black
I know mi roots and culture (Murderer)
Who is the root Robert Nesta? (Murderer)
And Bunny Wailer follow after? (Murderer)
What about Jacob and Peter? (Murderer)
Jimmy the Pioneer in Jamaica? (Murderer)
Know about your roots and your culture
Else you will fade out forever
Live good in your neighborhood
Live good and live good as you should
Shabba Ranking, you a murder (Murderer)
It is music mi charge for (Murderer)
Some talk this and some talk that
Say everything from Shabba mouth is slack
I love roots and reality straight from the max
Because I am a article I'll a bash
I love mi roots and culture (Murderer)
It's a new page I turn over (Murderer)
Teach the youth dem like a teacher (Murderer)
Make dem listen to the rags like a pastor (Murderer)
Come now!
Say, you just
Jump around if you love culture
You love culture, you a go free Mandela
Come now!
Whine up your line if you love culture
Tell Shabba fi stop being vulgar
