Strange Things
Gentleman Lyrics

I'd rather be saved bye Jah Jah
I would prefer to seek salvation from Jah Jah rather than from mankind.

Yeah yeah yeah
Expressing agreement and enthusiasm towards the idea of seeking salvation from Jah Jah.

Than to have mankind as my savior
I would rather not depend on my fellow human beings for my salvation.

Dem never sees to amaze me
People and their actions never cease to surprise and shock me.

Strange things they bring to us
People bring strange and unexpected things into our lives.

And only Jah Jah can save we
Jah Jah is the only one who can provide true salvation for us.

Now who else can we trust
If we cannot trust people, then who can we depend on?

Babylon dem words ya dem a tuff like iron
The words coming from Babylon are tough and unyielding.

Trodding through the hills now with the powers of a lion
Babylon is moving through the metaphorical hills of life with strength and fearlessness.

No looking back we pon the highway to zion
We are not dwelling on the past, but moving forward towards the goal of reaching zion.

No doubt about it Jah love we a relay on
We have complete faith in Jah Jah's love to guide and protect us.

From you see me pon the subway
Even in my everyday life, I am demonstrating a way of love and faith that Jah Jah provides.

Everything you see me do me do it love way
All of my actions are guided by love and faith in Jah Jah.

I see dem going down grudge way
I see others taking the path of holding grudges and resentment.

Iniquity can't touch we
We are protected from evil and any form of wrongdoing.

Babylon now what me see you try to tek away Jah star
Babylon is attempting to take away the shining light of Jah Jah's love from us.

Left me to wonder who really are
This makes me wonder about Babylon's true nature and intentions.

For a stick a marihuana we get lock behind a bar
People are being unfairly punished for possessing and using marijuana.

Jah children reputation you a scar
Babylon is tarnishing the reputation of Jah Jah's children.

Smoking kills that you mark on your cigar
Babylon is promoting harmful practices like smoking, even labeling it as dangerous.

Dangerous like a bullet from an s-sellar
These practices are as dangerous as a bullet shot from a sniper rifle.

But tell me how much innocent life you tek so far
How many innocent lives have been lost due to this dangerous behavior promoted by Babylon?

And all those victims of your wars
It is important to remember all the casualties of Babylon's wars and aggression.

Question me ask so why you don't answer dis
I have a question that needs to be answered.

How comes you have the youths dem turn and a twist
Why are the youths being led astray and misguided?

Have dem ina the jungle like a tarzan pon a wist
They are being left to fend for themselves in difficult situations, like Tarzan in a jungle.

Still dem awaiting Jah wonderful bliss
However, the youths are still hopeful for Jah Jah's wonderful blessings.

Ask dem already so what left to come
I have already raised these questions, so what remains unanswered?

We already see the destruction from your gun
We have already witnessed the destruction caused by your weaponry.

Babylon upholding a falling kingdom
Babylon is trying to maintain a failing empire.

Still we chant down rome and beat the kette drum
Despite this, we are still fighting against Babylon and expressing our faith and love through music and culture.

From you see me pon the subway
Even in my everyday life, I am demonstrating a way of love and faith that Jah Jah provides.

Everything you see me do me do it love way
All of my actions are guided by love and faith in Jah Jah.

I see dem going down grudge way
I see others taking the path of holding grudges and resentment.

Iniquity can't touch we
We are protected from evil and any form of wrongdoing.
