Thank the Lord

H.I.M.
Haile Selassie-I the First
Who Kadamawe speak
Wool, deep mahogany color, teeth,
I-vinity of ancient mystique
Ya hear me?
Well, I thank the Lord who invigorate man ya
Breath inna man body
As them a go fall hard,
The journey of the biggest into obscurity
When them a go face God,
Is the reality of them human mortality
Under dagger fight back ‘pon them undercard
I-tection and nuff a shield up ya inna ya dun’ guard
Haile I Selassie the first ya Lord
Black face of snow equatorial contrast
Territorial status of wey done broad
Haile I Selassie I thank the Lord
I-thiopia a chant and sing ya inna the vanguard
For as goodness and longevity promise them reward
Simply love of life is to love the Lord, love the Lord
Well, I thank the Lord who invigorate man ya
Breath inna man body
As them a go fall hard,
The journey of the biggest into obscurity
When them a go face God,
Is the reality of them human mortality
Under dagger fight back ‘pon them undercard
I-tection and nuff a praise up ya inna ya dun’ guard
Kali ’bout to bun down, all a heat upon the Earth
Speak up all a give the youth a balance Earth worth
Tune called the Livity all the doing as a verb
Wicked overdrive what a revenge of the nerd
Mount Simeon Phoenix red, black, gold, green as a bird,
Risen as a bird,
Honestly be speak of how you heard
