I & I
Selah
Know what they longing for
Know what they longing for
And I’ve got it, I’ve got it
We’ve got it, yeah
Young General a talk, tell anyone at all
Them never coulda want take a part inna harm me
Man a war inna Menelik army
See it, them a move with the message of Garvey
Can’t listen who dem elect, hardly
Dem a play fi dem part in a party
Hear say Audley start drive Audi
Beg you pardon, a Bimma me sorry
Lead who them lost we nuh follow them
Organize and form inna one again
Twelve Tribes, you nuh see we with the banner dem
Bobo Hill a talk, walk far, do nuh bother them
Ithiopia, the Ark of the Covenant
Queen Makeda, the start of the sovereign
Selassie I order we governing
We nuh inna none a dem tings, so I say
Ites I a gwaan hold
A love we living in
I&I a pass through
Greetings I bring again
Ites I a gwaan hold
When I&I a pass through
Said I took a break and I loved the break
Now I’m off the brake, looking to make a break
At a greater stake and the flow sweet like grater cake
Sharper than a grater make
And then I take a date and a make a mate
At a greater pace, naa use razor blade
And grate my face, dem ‘fraid a me
Lyrics a penetrate
Nuh hesitate fi make tune generate
That will devastate you, Don say it devastating
With more thoughts than them ever stating
Keep them waiting like thugs in a state bing
Jail or prison system, same thing
Flee the scene with thoughts of escaping
My mind did need fi get right
Clarity wha’ we need fi get, so
Know what they longing for
Know what they longing for
Know what they longing for
And we’ve got it, we’ve got it
We’ve got it, yeah, yeah
I & I
Selah
Know what they’re craving for
Know what they’re craving for
And I’ve got it, I’ve got it
We’ve got it, yeah
Young General speaks, tell anyone at all
They never could’ve wanted to take part in harming me
Man’s at war in Menelik’s army
See it, they’re moving with Garvey’s message
Can’t listen to who they elect, hardly
They’re playing their part in a party
Heard Audley started driving an Audi
Excuse me, it’s a Beamer I’m sorry
Lead those who are lost, we don’t follow them
Organize and unite once again
Twelve Tribes, can’t you see us with the banners?
Bobo Hill speaks, walk far, don’t bother them
Ethiopia, the Ark of the Covenant
Queen Makeda, the start of the sovereign
Selassie I orders our governing
We’re not into any of that stuff, so I say
Ites I’m holding on
A love we’re living in
I & I are passing through
Greetings I bring again
Ites I’m holding on
When I & I are passing through
Said I took a break and I loved the break
Now I’m off the brake, looking to make a break
At a greater stake and the flow’s sweet like cake
Sharper than a grater makes
And then I take a date and make a mate
At a greater pace, not using a razor blade
And scrape my face, they’re afraid of me
Lyrics penetrate
Don’t hesitate to make tunes generate
That will devastate you, Don says it’s devastating
With more thoughts than they’ve ever stated
Keep them waiting like thugs in a state of bing
Jail or prison system, same thing
Flee the scene with thoughts of escaping
My mind needed to get right
Clarity is what we need to get, so
Know what they’re craving for
Know what they’re craving for
Know what they’re craving for
And we’ve got it, we’ve got it
We’ve got it, yeah, yeah
