And beg bread."

So Jah seh,
"Not one of my seeds
Shall sit in the sidewalk
And beg your bread."

And down here in the ghetto,
And down here we suffer.
But IŽnŽI a-hang on in there
And IŽnŽI, I naw leggo;
IŽnŽI a-hang on in there
and IŽnŽI, I naw leggo.
For so Jah seh - yeah! -
"IŽm gone to prepare a place,
That where I am thou shall abide," yeah!
So Jah seh,
"Fear not for mighty dread,
ŽCause IŽll be there at your side."
And - and down there - down there in the ghetto -
And down there we suffer
But IŽnŽI a-hang on in there
And IŽnŽI, I naw leggo.
But IŽnŽI a-hang on in there
And IŽnŽI, I naw leggo;
- So Jah seh.
