Dem stealing the riddims of our ancient culture
Distorting our harmonics dem a cakewalk vulture
Bifurcating the livity of our drums from ancestor
Knock, knock dem want to come in here
Knock, knock dem want to come into Jah
So sing praises unto Jah
Strive to live in praises unto Jah

Deliver and dress me in the presence of my enemies
Brandish the rock that they can't come between
The righteous man won't fall for their deceit
Curse dem down to their unborn seed
Because beyond malicious dem man a evil
Yet the innocent ones can see the reason
So they live with dem, dem smile with dem
Dem enthralled by dem and they cry for dem
But dem man deh so, dem man a evil
Open your rice and they're the weeble
Crack open your bread they are the mold and mildew
Roll up your pants and they're the leech 'pon you

So sing praises unto Jah
Strive to live in praises unto Jah
Knock, knock dem want to come in here
Knock, knock dem want to come into Jah

They come in your face, with an amazing grace
Such comfort they deploy talk and reason
But the worst of dem looks just like I and I
But through Jah I'll charge dem with treason
Through Jah I'll convict dem of treason
Through Jah I'll find their true reason

So sing praises unto Jah
Strive to live in praises unto Jah
Knock, knock dem want to come in here
Knock, knock dem want to come into Jah

Dem stealing the riddims of our ancient culture
Distorting our harmonics dem a cakewalk vulture
Bifurcating the livity of our drums from ancestor
Knock, knock dem want to come in here
Knock, knock dem want to come into Jah
So sing praises unto Jah
Strive to live in praises unto Jah

In this time don't trust their mouths
In this time don't trust their sound
Their vibration is your discerning tool
And let their actions be the guide for you

Sing praises unto Jah
Strive to live in praises unto Jah
Knock, knock dem want to come in here
Knock, knock dem want to come into Jah
