Protection lyrics with English Translations
[Chorus: Mortimer]
A word unto the wise is enough
You can look but don't touch
My relations and such
Every king has his throne
And if you enter my zone
I vow to protect my own
Protect my own
I will protect my own
Protect my own
[Verse 1: Protoje] Bread basket from birth to the casket I've heard they been talkin' some words I look past it I was brought up and taught of the tactics And learned that the Lion no turn when dog barkin' Watch who you burn, who you spark with And you haffi go earn if you want it So we nuh concern with who hawking When dem spit can't reach where we walking Enemies in disguise wanna see my demise Dem don't even realize, Jah no wrong dem But achieve something twice is a problem Then you can imagine what a face Two up in hand and another on the way Plus I have another in the brain And every other one a put the other one to shame
[Chorus: Mortimer] A word unto the wise is enough You can look but don't touch My reparations and such Every king has his throne And if you enter my zone I vow to protect my own Protect my own I will protect my own Protect my own
[Verse 2: Protoje] Kick it Sharp like the thorn crown 'pon Christ head But you know the flow hard doe like slice bread Lyrics melt the butter fi mek a nice spread But a no margarine a pull the margin in Then stretch the margin out and if you marching out And you inna a doubt, you march without me I rather march alone than fi march back home Tell me queen say me lost the throne, no This was built on the power of the truth Discovering the cowards and empowering the youths If you give dem a minute dem devouring the fruits And within an hour call it sour and chop the root You no see it? No skill like Bibbi 'pon me feet But drop me 'pon the riddim, watch the clarity weh speak Ain't no parity between what we have and what we need So strength out the wise and protection for the meek
[Chorus: Mortimer] A word unto the wise is enough You can look but don't touch My reparations and such Every king has his throne And if you enter my zone I vow to protect my own Protect my own I will protect my own Protect my own
[Outro: Protoje] This yah protection goes out to you and yours As I give thanks for the protection weh I receive Say know you tuned in to the voice of Protoje Alongside the sounds of Winta James This come from a time and place, you know? Yeah Ancient Future
