we feel it in the one drop

i watched a lot of bob marley stuff on the internet. you know how it goes, link leads to a link, leads to a link...etc. but here is a bob marley song for you all. i am loving this right now. just so you know "Jah" is just another word for God in this song. those rastafarians had a lot of beneficial things to say, i am learning. lyrics are below!



feel it in the one drop;
and we'll still find time to rap;
we're making the one stop,
the generation gap;
so feel this drumbeat
as it beats within,
playing a rhythm,
resisting against the system
singing: i know Jah will never let us down;
pull your rights from wrong

they made their world so hard
every day we got to keep on fighting;
they made their world so hard
every day the people are dying
dread, dread, dread
for hunger and starvation, lamentation,
but read it in Revelation:
you'll find your redemption!

give us the teachings of His Majesty,
for we no want no devil philosophy;
give us the teachings of His Majesty,
we no want no devil philosophy.

we feel it in the one drop;
and we still find time to rap;
we're making a one stop,
and we filling the gap:
so feel this drumbeat
as it beats within
playing a rhythm
fighting against "ism" and "schism",
singing: I know Jah will never let us down.

they made their world so hard
every day we got to keep on fighting;
they made their world so hard
every day the people are dying
dread, dread, dread, dread

give us the teachings of His Majesty!
we no want no devil philosophy. can you hear?
give us the teachings of His Majesty,
for we no want no higher ideology.
