Nazarine Vow Lyrics

Nazarine Vow lyrics

-P. Barrett-

 

Babylon bridge is failing down

Burning, burning burning till it touch the ground

Babylon bridge is failing down

I and I come to utter some conscious sound

Babylon bridge is failing down

Don't be afraid grow your dreads till it touch all the ground

Remember all your antenna dem seen, have mercy

 

Chorus:

 

Say we no bow we no gow ras then and ras now

Long time me tek fi me nazarine vow

The first time me know say rastarfari legit

Is when me tek a little prip in a number chapter six

Me read Revelation and I was astonished

Fi know the mark of the beast that is six, six, six

Me check Samson and John the Baptist

Them grow them natty dread, mek it long like wiffs

Who, me start fi grow fi me dread some more

When me read Ezekiel forty-four

Chorus

So me people a spread propaganda 'bout long hair is a sin

But me challenge anyone but me know them can't win

'Cause any day them show me inna the Bible say man fe trim

Me give them scissors and comb

and mek them cut off everything

 

Chorus

 

You know one thing me used to hate when me a teenager

I man used to live with me grandfather

Every weekend him come him give me one hundred dollar

And cah tell me 'bout me must go to the barber

But when me see the scissors and me see the razor

Me always think the man going to commit murder

Why me never stop until me get me heart desire

See de now me grow me dread as a real rasta

 

Chorus

 

Me mek nuff guy fret nuff heathen mouth shut

'Cause them can't understand rastarfari yet

Nuff a them no stop check pon the vibes weh we ah get

But a true dem no know is a inbom concept

Have some long hair guy whe no stop live a lie

But you can't use them fat de 'bout you a go fry

'Cause higher example fe the most high

I and I is a true bom rastarfari

 

Chorus

 

If you sight the fullness and you want grow your locks

No listen chat no bother watch nothing fi try mek you stop

You dread ah you antenna and a you contract

So from you sign that de agreement you can't turn back

so

 

Chorus

 

One time dem used to gwaan like say I and I a mad man

True we talk different and eat different and grow we hair long

Nowadays out a ten at least three man dem a dread dem

head top and pon the back them have a sprong

 

Chorus
