Mortal Man
Sizzla Lyrics

At times your words are not to be heard
Sometimes, the things that you say are not worth being heard

Wha nah good fi you nah good fi talk
If something is not good for you, then it is not good to talk about it

Remember Jah is great and he set the pace
Always remember that God is great and He is the one who sets the pace for life

He made the ground for the people walk (told you)
God created the earth for people to walk on and live their lives

He gives us strength, knowledge and wisdom,
God gives us the strength, knowledge, and wisdom to face the challenges of life

He provided for us all (and a whole lot more)
God has provided us with everything we need and so much more

For you and I and others out there
God has provided for you, me, and everyone else out there

He will answer when you call (say wha)
God will always answer when you call upon Him for help or guidance

Mortal man (with wha?)
As human beings, we are all mortal and subject to death

Heart and lungs (and wha again?)
Our heart and lungs are essential parts of our body that keep us alive

Flesh and blood (ooh ooh)
As human beings, we are made up of flesh and blood

Different from no one (what do you say?)
We are all the same as human beings, regardless of our race, gender, or other differences

Everything arth the same nothing ain't change
The world remains the same, nothing seems to change

The sun shine the breeze blow still got the rain
The natural elements of the world continue to exist despite changes in human society

Ah, blood run through every man vains
As human beings, we all have blood running through our veins

I stick you with a pin you know you gonna feel pain
Regardless of who we are, if we are pricked with a pin we will all feel pain

So what you hype and what you scorn and
Regardless of your opinions, thoughts, or feelings about yourself, you are still human

What's the type of work to perform and
The kind of work you do does not change your humanity

We were all born equal yo through the womb of a woman
We were all created equal through the birth process of a woman

These are the days that I would say
These are the times in which I would like to speak

Take a little look within yourself
Take a moment to reflect on yourself

Some people they are just so selfish
There are some people who are only concerned about themselves

They don't care for no one else
They do not care about the well-being of others

But they don't know we all are one and
These people do not understand that we are all connected and share a common humanity

Everyone for all (we got to teach them ok)
We need to teach these people that they should care about everyone, not just themselves

And better days are yet to come
We can expect better days to come in the future

So know your purpose (damn)
Understand your life's purpose and live accordingly

Yo let me tell yuh, love life, oh you're so great
Enjoy life and appreciate its value because it is so great

From the womb of a woman we were all created
Our lives began with the birth process of a woman

We are made up of tissue, organs and bones and vertebrae
Our bodies consist of various tissues, organs, bones, and vertebrae

We are all born equal in this human race
When we are born, we are all equal regardless of our differences

Why don't you come down to my level?
Why don't you try to understand my perspective or situation?

Before you all get erase
Before we all disappear or are wiped out

So who are you to judge ya? Who are you to set blood ah?
Who are you to judge or condemn someone else? Who are you to spill someone's blood?

Who are you to discard of the love? stop hurt
Who are you to reject love and inflict pain on others? Stop causing harm

Yea yea yea yea yea
Repeated affirmation or agreement
