Guns Down

Lyrics

[Chorus] We got to keep them guns down And take care of the kids around, yeah We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler, woi We got to keep them guns down And take care of the kids around, yeah We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler [Verse 1] I wonder why it got to be so difficult to understand Them cops in the streets cannot sorrow the man Hold the corner, Ms. Brown, while I smoke my cigar A three-shot a buss down, a young bwoy pon di car And with an M16, kids are not having fun Seem like Babylon, but now they get their job done But we're ready to work; different same old story Adonai mi seh so, King Selassie I Glory [Pre-Chorus] Them soldiers cannot believe Our preachers have already seen That the healing of the nation is inside of them Is inside of them, woi, ayy And them soldiers cannot believe Our preachers have already seen That the healing of the nation is inside of them Is inside of them, woi-woi, ayy [Chorus] Got to keep them guns down And take care of the kids around, yeah We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler, woi, ayy We got to keep them guns down And take care of the kids around, ayy We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler [Verse 2] And they won't legalize the herb now, and free mi chalice Breakin' out effects of brainstorm to everybody And none of them tell what you got to learn in the school That the black lion came against to bring the only truth So, what? What you carry to the other side? Tomorrow can be the worst time to realize My mind is goin' off; everything is good, though Nuff of them neva think, and people all suffer so [Pre-Chorus] And them soldiers cannot believe Our preachers have already seen That the healing of the nation is inside of them Is inside of them, woi, ayy And them soldiers cannot believe Our preachers have already seen That the healing of the nation is inside of them Is inside of them, woi-woi, ayy [Chorus] We got to keep the guns down And take care of the kids around, ayy We got so much things to say But Jah Jah is the ruler, woi, ayy We got to keep the guns down And take care of the kids around, say We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler [Outro] Say, yeah, yeah, yeah We got to keep the guns down And take care of the kids around, say We got so much things to say Yeah, Jah Jah is the ruler, woi, woi, woi, [Scatting]
