[Intro]
Ya wow
Yuh know we come fi change up weh wi change up yuh know

[Chorus]
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we too?
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know clean heart a' di only way fi go thru?

[Verse 1]
Well I nah judge no man or condemn no one
True yuh nuh inna mi plan and yuh nah join mi gang
Coulda Bobo, coulda Bingi I nuh give a damn
Bottom line we all Rastaman, yo
So if you bu'n Jesus you will bu'n Leviticus and Deuteronomy Numbers a' go bite di dust
Some put themself over Jah but 'member Jah come first
Some a' fight fi big slice but give me di crust
One one one one thousand different views-ooose
It only mek wi look so confu-oo-oose-ooose
And di yute dem nah go know a' who fi choo-oo-ooose
And we wouldn't be no different from the church, yo

[Chorus]
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we too?
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know clean heart a' di only way fi go thru?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we, yo yo yo

[Verse 2]
Wagonist and Fifth Columinst
Weh only say Rasta true from Rast' them wan' fi benefit
Dem never say Jah yet when dem a' worship
Dem mix up mood and attitude dem no wan' curve it
Some a' funny man some a' money man rub dem a' work it
But every [?] fi sit down pon dem own bottom
'Cause yuh health coulda long long long, long
And your locks it coulda lo-oo-oo-oow
Yuh still a' go reap the seed weh yuh so-oo-oow
So don't you be so shallow, yo

[Chorus]
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know clean heart a' di only way fi go thru?
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we too?
Yo

[Verse 3]
Anglican and Respitarian
And di whole a' di rest a' di Dean a' mi nation
Wah unu differ so much wit' views and unu opinion?
Power struggle a' di trouble why we can't get along
Trod go bottomless pit fi slay Satan
Woh him no deh deh no more him a' work from out a' Vati Vati.. Buckingham
Buck me down if there trouble stem from
Cah I a' one a' di true apocalypse
One more ting I want you bear in mind, miinnd
As long as the soul the soul will shine, shine
You must always la-la-la-love mankind
'Pon that me wan' yuh swear blind, yo

[Chorus]
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we too?
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know clean heart a' di only way fi go thru?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know
Open yuh eyes, woah woah

[Outro]
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah
Fi mek yuh know divide and conquer dem use 'pon we too?
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know clean heart a' di only way fi go thru?
What mi haffi do-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah
What will it ta-ya-ya-yake
Fi mek yuh know di same blood work inna mi vain it inna you?
