Deep Roots lyrics with English Translations
In the morning when they rise
Put on their face and try to disguise
Never knowing where they go
Like a tumble weed when the wind blows
Cannot go on walking without legs Confusion always raging in their heads They only see the light when they are dead Listen to the words that the wise man said
Bow your head and pray Thank you for the love, blessing I with help Thank you for the knowledge, my family is my wealth Thank you for the melody I'm singing in my song Thank you for I roots, keeps I steady as I grow Jah bless I with your love, no matter where I go Protect I from my enemies arrows and the stones Bless the little ones, the daughters and the sons Protect the innocent a suffer sins of evil men
Said I these are the roots that I planted Down in a Babylon see them take their chances Deeper roots, stronger branches Devil strikes a blow, my house will never go These here deep roots, growing since the dawn of creation They can push, pull, never shake the roots of I foundation
I see people in the ghetto easy fall to their defeat Living in suburbia and living in the street See them turn around in circles, like a dog chasing a tail They running like a fugitive nah sleep for many days Never knowing where they going, never knowing where they from Running from the demons, seek protection from a gun They forget their history, a lesson hidden in the past Find your roots the deepest roots will put you on the steady path
Said ah these are the roots that I planted Down in a Babylon see them take their chances Deeper roots, stronger branches Devil strikes a blow, my house will never go These here deep roots, growing since the dawn of creation They can push, pull, never shake the roots of I foundation
In the morning when they rise Put on their face and try to disguise Never knowing where they go Like a tumble weed when the wind blows
You cannot go on walking without legs Confusion always raging in their heads They only see the light when they are dead Listen to the words that the wise man said
Said ah these are the roots that I planted Down in a Babylon see them take their chances Deeper roots, stronger branches Devil strikes a blow, my house will never go These here deep roots, growing since the dawn of creation They can push, pull, never shake the roots of I foundation
