    WAKE UP CHIL'RAN (wake up)

    Dreadlocks
    Written by D.Greaves

    When love is real

    Time can't reveal

    What love can't heal

    If peace can't be our deal

    God will break

    The Final Seal

     

    No mon can reject

    Our self-respect

    If love is our destiny

    The devil can't take what's protected

    No grand larceny

     

    For when a soul speaks loudly

    The Voices of Freedom

    Are heard

    And we won't need na King named James

    2 translate the Father's Word

     

    So let

    The preacher preach

    The rabbi teach

    And the Imam reach

    Into your soul

    But always question their wisdom

    Only the Son

    Not the Sun can repair the hole

     

    Mosques

    Temples

    And churches

    Reaching into the sky

    Towers of Babylon

    People usin Resurrection and Ramadan

    2 justify

     

    WAKE UP CHIL'RAN

    WAKE UP

    IT'S TIME 4 A LITTLE TRUST

    ASK YOURSELF

    AS JOAN OSBOURNE SANG

    WHAT IF GOD IS ONE OF US

     

    Listen closly 2 the mon

    Who is hurting internally

    Yet has been anointed the 13th

    Watcher of God's Prophecy

     

    Don't just listen 2 he words though

    See the tears in he eyes

    'Cuz

    When all and all is all

    Collectively we must

    Keep our eyes

    Pon the prize

     

    Ask all holy men sincerely

    If they see a world beyond Sacred facts

    And wonder why a man of God

    Ignores a used Toyota

    And drives a brand new Cadillac

     

    Ain't nah treasure

    Mon can measure

    If the soul has no price

    It ain't the mon who makes mistakes

    But those who can't escape the vice

     

    Don't fret over opinion

    Truth is only a concept of man's design

    For only the Father truly knows

    Your place in this troubled time

     

    WAKE UP CHIL'RAN

    WAKE UP

    IT'S TIME 4 A LITTLE TRUST

    ASK YOURSELF

    AS JOAN OSBOURNE SANG

    WHAT IF GOD IS ONE OF US

     

    Pon a sunny day

    A great city

    Reigned above all on earth

    people in awe of her Majesty

    From Pretoria 2 Perth

     

    And another fallen angel

    Came down from the sky

    Lighting the earth with demonic glory

    Many suffer

    Many cry

     

    Crying mightily

    Babylon is fallen and fallen

    As Towers fell

    Revelation 18:2

    The prophet fortell

     

    As nations drank wine

    2 the wrath of fornication

    There was war and rumors of war

    While big men deliberate

    And MASTER-Debate

    Fiya bubble up the tar

     

    Satan can't hasten he glory

    Lest we fret the day

    Fighting amidst internal racial struggle

    While men who corrupt the Koran

    Take innocent lives away

     

    WAKE UP CHIL'RAN

    WAKE UP

    IT'S TIME 4 A LITTLE TRUST

    ASK YOURSELF

    AS JOAN OSBOURNE SANG

    WHAT IF GOD IS ONE OF US

     

    No more worth pon an animal

    Over human life

    Though we can't condone animal cruelty

    A mon's life has no price

     

    Make shame of reality T.V.

    When reality is in the streets

    How can ya blame a young mon

    He can't run

    When stress break he feet

     

    Lady oh my Lady

    Don't you feel na pain

    We men will die

    I and I will live 2 fight

    4 to die for God is gain

     

    Own de words you speak mon

    So no one can say you lie

    4 ultimately it's not the deceivers

    But 2 God you will justify

     

    I say this now

    If an atheist save our Chil'ran

    He makes a Sacred claim

    4 many who say they believe in Jah

    Secretly curse His Holy Name

     

    WAKE UP CHIL'RAN

    WAKE UP

    IT'S TIME 4 A LITTLE TRUST

    ASK YOURSELF

    AS JOAN OSBOURNE SANG

    WHAT IF GOD IS ONE OF US

    JUST A SLOB LIKE ONE OF US

    JUST A STRANGER ON THE BUS

    TRYING TO MAKE

    HIS

    WAY

    HOME

     

     

    Lyrics to One of Us by Eric Brazilian

    "What if God was one of us

    Just a slob like one of us

    Just a stranger on a bus

    Trying to find his way home"
