Gospel fi preach a bongo town
You see I don't come to cause a controversy, but (Gospel fi preach a congo town) I'm just gonna speak some truth from Imperial Majesty (Gospel fi preach a bongo town) Haile Selassie I, mi Christian brother (Gospel fi preach a congo town) Jah! Over Jireh - hear the man say
The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (town, town, town) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (now watch this) The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (town, town, town) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (watch this)
Me love the church, but the Christians save So me start preach the gospel 'pon di highways, the by-ways Inspired by Haile Selassie To the Ras them we want bring clarity (boom, now) Mi love drumming and the ites, gold and green an' (yeah) Mi love the ital vege and the beans an' (yeah) Mi love the gesture sey man heart fi clean Wus mi no nyam, if yuh know whey me mean A mi no deh ya so fi cause confusion But did you know that Selassie was a Christian? Him make the most churches give to the Africans And bring Orthodox to Jamaica and say: Him say rise up mi brother: "I'm not God, I am sent by the Father"
The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (up a Bobo hill yeah) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (round a Judgement y'all) The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (we a go tek it out a Nine Mile) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (a nyabinghi)
A make a trod me and mi brethren dem (yeah) Nyabinghi a gwaan dung a May Pen And when mi stop inna the middle a di square A hear man a bun gays and queers now Another man a bun a fire 'pon another man Another man a tell another man him badder than True mi no Rasta, him say mi no him brother To Selassie that's a big contradiction, 'cause Selassie a no Christ, so a Christ yuh fi honour Inna passa passa business, Selassie never walla Rastaman, this is a tough pill fi swallow But a Jesus Selassie I follow
The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (up a Wareika) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (a fire house) The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (so watch this)
The truth hurt, but the truth set you free Inna Matthew 24, Jah sey: "Listen to me: When me come again, everybody a go see" So a couldn't him land a Norman Manley A full time we put down the confusion A house that's divided just can't stand So go read your Bible, go read all or none It say Jesus a the only Son, me done
The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (a dung a Trench Town) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (inna tenement y'all) The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (a up a Judgement y'all) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town
The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (a wey you go, a Bobo Hill) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (every corner) The gospel fi preach dung a bongo town (a just the good news) The gospel fi preach dung a congo town (Jesus our Lord)
