Alborosie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Babylon press the trigger, no Rasta nah go jump the fence
A wah do dem deh? Dem catch a mental pestilence
The cross and the rifle a fi dem ultimate defence
The temple of the Most High never build upon the Earth
Why you fast and pray and purify your actions inna the church?
Cursed shall be the one who nah go put God first
Ever poor shall be the one who dash his thought inna di dirt
This got be the first trumpet
Might as well be the last
Many more will have to suffer
Many more will have to die, don't ask me why
There's a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
This could be the first trumpet
Might as well could be the last
Watch the wicked dreadful man a drowning inna one glass
Judgement a go lick down every race and social class
Armagideon time shall come and put we all pon pause
There's a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
We coming in from the cold and so we marching to the light
Jah Jah people stop the tension got a dream let's get unite
It's natural and mystic, you must feel it inna the air
If you don't feel it simply mean seh all this time you never care
I'm the child, I'm the man, I'm the messenger, the same
I'm the keeper of the secrets, the one who done the game
I'm the prophecy the legacy, the Bible is my soul
Jah please bless up mi chantin' and just take it to the world
There's a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
Such a natural mystic
Blowing through the air
In Alborosie's song "Natural Mystic," the lyrics touch upon themes of spirituality, social injustice, and the impending judgment on mankind. The opening lines reflect a meditative state of mind and a deep reverence for Rastafarian principles. The mention of Babylon pressing the trigger refers to the oppressive forces in society, but the singer asserts that no true Rasta will turn away from their beliefs. The line "A wah do dem deh?" questions the mental state of those who support and perpetuate the system of oppression, calling their mindset a "mental pestilence."
The next verse criticizes organized religion, suggesting that the temple of God cannot be found on Earth but rather within oneself. It questions the sincerity of those who fast and pray in church while their actions remain impure. The line "Cursed shall be the one who nah go put God first" emphasizes the importance of prioritizing a spiritual connection with God over material wealth or power. It concludes with the idea that those who disregard spirituality and live solely for earthly desires will ultimately suffer.
The chorus, "There's a natural mystic blowing through the air," signifies a powerful and pervasive force in the world. It suggests that nature itself holds a spiritual energy, with the term "mystic" implying a sense of divine guidance or influence. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the universal nature of this mystic energy.
The following verse imagines a time of judgment, where the wicked, regardless of their race or social class, will face consequences for their actions. The term "Armagideon time" refers to a final battle or reckoning, where all of humanity will be put on pause and held accountable. This verse highlights the idea that ultimately, justice will prevail and those who have perpetuated injustice will face their own downfall.
