Selassie Children lyrics with English Translations
[Verse 1]
Been laughed at, scrutinised
To the point where I had to ask who am I
Then I remember what they do to Christ
He was nailed to a cross and crucified
Now that the light came to me
I wonder if they're gonna do the same to me
And when the truth hits painfully
That's when you know if you're really who you claim to be
For so long we've been denied
Rejected and brutalised
But Jah children shall win the war
Yes, 'cause we know who we are
[Chorus] We're Selassie I children, oh yeah Haile Selassie children Haile Selassie children We are Ethiopians by blood Africa was born in us, Selassie children Selassie children Haile, Haile Selassie Children We know who we are Woii
[Verse 2] Young boy threw away his comb So his papa told him find a different home Never come back, hold your own Rejected for the life he choose (Cast out) all alone (oh no) The stone that the builder man refused (Shall be) the head cornerstone Soon they will realise (will realise) That we've been reading between the lines (lines) Remember we foretold the war Whoa, you never forget who we are
[Chorus] Tell them, we're Selassie children Children, children, yeah Haile Selassie children Daniel in the lion's den We are Ethiopians by blood Africa was born in us Selassie children Haile Selassie Children
[Verse 3] Young girl gotta face the worst She find a clay kutchie and some holy herbs And the wise mind of Haile I the first Mama say, "Young girl you're losing your mind Did you get these things from Satan?" And she say, "No, mama I got the kutchie from Jah9 And the wise mind from I nation" Please mama, don't scrutinise Take this book and give it a try Let this herb open up your eyes Experience the wonders of Rastafari
[Chorus] Haile Selassie children We are, Haile Selassie children We are Ethiopians by blood Africa was born in us Selassie children Africa Haile Selassie children, oh yeah Haile Selassie children
[Outro] The battle will be hard Haile Selassie children Still we never stall Selassie children Deh yah back a wall Haile Selassie children Still the Natty never fall Haile Selassie children Oh coral garden Selassie children Look at pinnacle Selassie children Still we deh yah now, yeah Selassie children We never giving up Selassie children Take no heartache pain Selassie children Fight the fights in vain Selassie children Even if the battle stains Ooh Ooh
