Midnite - Before David

Yeah

Before David, Bath Sheba
Before Solomon, Makeda
Before Moses, Zipporah
Vashti come before Esther
YAH come from Ithiopia
Anything dem prime minister have
Within the aptitude ah YAH, Omri Ithiopia
Ina Archangel Michael Law
No matter how much claw di dragon have
They cannot reach the Emperor
Confound them Mutabaruka
The Holy mountain of Luna
Give way we heritage fi wah
As Beta Israel, Falasha
As there is a stroke of amnesia
Now the youth a chant Rasta
Family can’t buy them no car
So dem innovate ragga, yeahhh
Hail, come again...

Before David, Bath Sheba
Before Solomon, Makeda
Before Moses, Zipporah
Vashti did come before Esther

Anything dem prime minister have
Within the aptitude ah YAH, Omri Ithiopia
Ina Archangel Michael Law
No matter how much claw di dragon have yeahhh

Hear and again
Study the Earth and figure out mama law
Too disobedient ina ya
And kill out the Earth because ah wah?
Body used by lucifer
Spark Rastaman bun di Chalwa
Give smoke of offering unto YAH
No badda go drag down your heart ina
Wrong thought you project to your breddaaa

Hear and again

As eye winter left the summer for
I see the vision of the acts of YAH
A flaming sword a fire car
Fi guard the garden Equator
The whole world this generation ya
A go sight up the Emperor
Selassie I give I nuff power ova
Mental illusion ina red drawww, draww

Ganja Sativa ya Indica
Rastaman a ride ya ina canter
I and I stand up when ever
Them try fi crush ya and step ova
For the ones who are ina my gear
Please no bring that ova ya
These are right people, leave i share
Cause if I share, I want fi share ahhhh
Hear and again

Before David, Bath Sheba

Haile Selassie I bongo over here
We don’t vatican into view
Fi keep the precept well diclure
We don’t scatter out here and there
We don’t stray bout here and there
For the love I keep YAH near
For the truth I keep appearing yeahhh

Try make David Copper disappear in the field hide out in a mirror
And still be seen to solo care
So aggressive out of fear
What Jezebel learn from Delilah
She shake to the innocence of Dinah
And them still a fight ovaa 

Before David, Bath Sheba
Before Solomon, Makeda
Before Moses, Zipporah
Vashti come before Esther
YAH come from Ithiopia
Anything dem prime minister have
Within the aptitude ah YAH, Omri Ithiopia
YAH Ina Archangel Michael Law
No matter how much claw di dragon have
Can’t touch the Emperor
They cannot reach the Emperor
Confound them Mutabaruka
Hey hey eh
