Anthony B Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A no me say so, a no me say so, a no me say so
A just the bible say so, a just the bible say so, eh-a-a-a
All wicked people shall be burning on the rock hotter fire bun
All wicked people shall be burning on the rock my lawd
Mix up people, are so confused in every way
Confrontation, read it in the news everyday
Do you wickedness and think nobody no see
But the unseen eye is the Almighty
Always watch over you and me
Select the clean and not dirty yo yo
I see you trying to run, but there's no escape
I see you try to hide but there's no hiding place
The works that you have done brings mankind disgrace
That mean a your time fi get erase yo yo
Hey you a one a wha, satan follower
It seems the righteous are few yo
You caught in the middle of the belly of the beast
And there's no hope for you babylon
Me see dem pollution, pure corruption
Exploitation coming from over yonder
Abomination, war and confusion
Here it in a dem propaganda
I will be there when the rapture call
Rasta will be there to testify you down fall
Mix up people, are so confused in every way
Confrontation, read it in the news everyday
Do you wickedness and think nobody no see
But the unseen eye is the Almighty
Always watch over you and me
Select the clean and not dirty yo yo

Overall Meaning

In the song "One Thing" by Anthony B, the artist expresses his faith in the Almighty and stresses the importance of doing good and staying away from wickedness. He begins the song by stating that his words are not solely his own, but come from the Bible. He then goes on to say that all wicked people will face burning punishment, which is a reference to hell. He also highlights the confusion and confrontation prevalent in society, with references to pollution, corruption, exploitation, and war. Anthony B sings about how people can't hide their wrongdoing from the Almighty and that only the clean and righteous will be selected.


Throughout the song, Anthony B takes a stand against wickedness and aligns himself with the righteous. He speaks directly to those who follow Satan and warns them of their impending downfall. He believes that when the rapture comes, he and other Rastafarians will testify to their powerlessness, and he sings of his hope that the Almighty will always be watching over them. The overall message is clear: do good, be clean, and avoid wickedness, or you will face punishment.

“Where me get me wisdom from, born in this cess?”.

Took me 28 years of listening to this song to hear that line, goes to show you, you can never quite squeeze a proverb dry and the meaning is timeless.

One thing I can do , one thing I can say
Real Blackman no drink coffee
I rather have a good tea
It is a thing that my ancestors were knowing.
This a cold bringing in your life coffee
Sorry my colour mind is really invisible
I know from Jamaican, i’ll always been considered as sufferer.
But almighty God a lead me in my way, no badmind can’t stop me nailed.
