Why Wait?

Thinkin' that I won't up on dread
Ha ha ha ha Rasta
Ooo ahh, hey, ah haha, hey
Ooo ahh, hey, ah haha, hey

Lift my head up this morning, before I awake
Gotta give Jah Jah praises first thing
No other God come before me
So wicked Babylon, me go sing up

Chant them down Babylon, me go stand up
Hold Thy ground against them wicked plans
Speak up, testify against them Babylon system
Give thanks and praise

No matter where I go, no matter what they say
Jah Jah gonna be there for me
No matter where I go, no matter where I play
Jah Jah gonna be there for you

For you, for you
Jah Jah gonna be there for you
For you, for you
And Jah Jah gonna be there

So why you wanna wait so long?
(Shining so bright)
(And natty dready don't wait)
Why you wanna wait so long?
(So long, so long)
(My little baby don't wait)

Why you wanna wait so long?
(For you, for you)
(My little sister don't wait)
Why you wanna wait so long
For His Majesty's love?

You got to know, ah haha
For His Majesty's patience and love
Ah haha, you got to serve the King

What a lovely little feeling
No matter where I go, in the streets
Them, ah, show me lovin'
'Cause in the South, we are bubblin'

Give me more of that Diego raw sound, sound
It's your boys comin' out of south town, town
And you know we have to break it on down, down
Testify against them Babylon system

No matter where I go, no matter what they say
Jah Jah gonna be there for me
No matter where I go, no matter where I play
Jah Jah gonna be there for you

So long, so long
Jah Jah gonna be there for you
For you, for you
And Jah Jah gonna be there

Open your hearts and let Jah come in
And I will know that
He will wipe away our sin
