Jah Cure and Vybz Kartel - So Free

Up to di time
You know it's Jah Cure and Vybz Kartel
Vertex Productions
And Cure and di Kartel mek
Sure every heart well
Cause of freedom is di cause of selassie I
Ruler of all living tings
No man is free who's not master of himself
So nuh be a slave to vanity and wealth

Diamond and Gold like glitter eye
But I've been told a bit of lies
For that I've been so long victimised
(who we?) yeah (we a' di victim of dem lies)
I man behold wit' my two eyes (wha?)
Di truth Babylon nuh try deny
Still Rastafari still provide for I
(provide for I, 'cause we nah Peter weh deny)
Still for all never leave our side
(Never) let di wicked come devour
I and I (Selassie I)
Jah never leave us out there
(Jah never leave, Jah never leave
Wha' dem believe?)
Jah never leave us out there
(Him never leave)
Leave us out there (Him never leave)
Leave us out there

Hey, ghetto yute
We haffi free dat a' weh mi pree
'cause di power inna me stronger
Than di lock an' key
Jah Cure haffi free like di birds in di tree
'cause di hate inna we move
Di mountain and di sea
Di prison and di scheme dat a' Babylon dream
Yeah either way dem have we like
A' slave to dem regime
Ghetto yute haffi move slippery like Vaseline
'cause dem waan get a' hol' a'
We fi fling we inna hole
Mek wi conquer dem like weh
Samson do di Philistine, cure
Dem have di flesh but di mental is supreme
By di rivers of Babylon, even by di stream
When mi 'member 'bout Zion mi weep
Nuff night mi couldn't sleep

Free like di fishes in the sea yeah (free)
Free like di birds in the tree yeah
(that's we)
Free like anything (and everyting)
Free, as everything (and everyting)
Selasssie I mi king yeah (Selassie I)
Rule over everyting woah (Selassie I)
Glorify me say yeah nah nah noo

Mi free from social expectation
Free from self degredation
Self denial lose di trial so
Mi free from persecution
'scape from all even from
Behind prison wall position
That's mi decision fear and famine
Never win no mission
Di flesh under bondage but how
Dem a' go manage 'cause if a' nuh fi free mi
Soul nuh know nuh other language
Dem say mi gon' eat back
Mi words like a sandwich
'cause mi music tour di
World without American advantage!

Dem tink dem got me
How is it I, look at me, it's not me
Got me, within myself I'm so free
I'm so freeeeeee
Within myself I'm so free yeeeeeaa-a ahh
Within myself Im soooo freeeeeeee
Within myself I'm soooo i'm so yeah
