We Deh Yah Still

Hmm, Lord have mercy
Look 'pon God people dem weh him mek, whoa
Look 'pon mi bredda lie down
A drink all water out a garbage pan

Though chop up, chop up
And macheted we may look
Lord, we deh ya still, Jah know
Burn up, burn up, Lord
And we look like monkey too
Lord, we deh ya still

Burdened, sick and pain
Lord, I've got myself some time to blame
Lord, we deh ya still

Oh! Aah!
We deh ya still

Macheted we may look and sometime
Look like piece a wool iron
Lord, we deh ya still (we a lion)
Forsaken and kicked in prison
Lord, for no reason
Lord, we deh ya still

Poor house got burn down
With our great mothers and fathers
Lord, we deh ya still

Merciful Father then, you know
We deh ya still

(..)

Burdened, sick and shame
Lord, I've got no one to blame
But we deh ya still
So dem tell we we no fi blame nobody
With my head just shoot up, shoot up
With bullets in our sight
Lord, we deh ya still

General penitentiary have to be some sitting hall
Lord, we deh ya still
Though we are poor and needy, hey
Lord, we know it, Lord, we deh ya still

Dem no like fi hear that
But yuh got to speak di justice
Lord, we deh ya still
Lord, we deh ya, we deh ya
Hey, only Jah know (Him no pass, you know)
We deh ya still

With our heads so ragged ragged, Lord
We look like the ganja weed
But we deh ya still
Seeing our sister walking on the street
With her flying bus
Lord, we deh ya still

Rasta chalice been taken away
And the ganja have been burned
Lord, we deh ya still
(You cyaan stop we from smoke it, star)
You mister man, yuh wretch
Lord, we deh ya still

Stand up and..
