This is my time
They never wanna see us
in the high life
But we shine bright
like the sunshine
Them can't take that
this is my life
But let me tell you
about hypocrisy
Life without not scalp
you like a sharp knife
Hunger and starvation
at the same time
Sah ah nah mah one of them
gwans no like it
when we rise
When we rolling in dough
Whether you do good
or bad them
leave you a zero
When you rolling in cash
Babylon now freed them
one know oh you'll
get it so fast
When you rolling in style
You been so good thom Jah
I'll read the word
with a smile
But one thing comes first
I never forget to yell
King Selassie the first
Turn us loose
Babylon no wanna ghetto
use from here threw
Set us free
Tell them property
is not your destiny
So we get it how we got
to get it
Do it how we got to do it
even if we gotta
chop it or screw it
To make the cash flow
like fluid
Like platinum
in your pocket
wop wine little stew'd
I am a vegetarian
read like a librarian
Catch me rolling
with mad Rastafarian
Side step roll
when it comes down
to retiring
I can stay in this land
and get marry
A bottomless grave
we are no slaves
We live in the land
of the free and the home
of the brave
Rolling in dough
Far in the Africa
way up in
a thee a Congo
We be rolling in cash
Babylon now freed them
one know oh
we get it so fast
When you rolling in style
You been so good thom Jah
I read the word
with a smile
But one thing comes first
I can't forget to yell
King Selassie the first
This is my time
They never wanna see us
in the high life
but we shine bright
like the sunshine
Them can't take that
this is my life
But let me tell you
about hypocrisy
Life without not scalp
you like a sharp knife
Hunger and starvation
at the same time
Sah ah nah mah one of them
gwans no like it
when we rise
When we rolling in dough
Whether you do good
or bad
them leave you a zero
When you rolling in cash
Babylon now freed them
one know oh you'll
get it so fast
We be rolling in style
You feel so good thom Jah
I'll read the word
with a smile
But one thing comes first
I can't forget to yell
His Majesty the first
