Jake savona - HEART OF A LION Lyrics

Dread come fi conquer!

Rough, tough, you know
When the Lion is sleeping (x4)

Yo, lion roar, jungle tremble
So it go, Lutan Fyah, Savona, yo!

Mi seh you got to have a heart of a lion,
It rough inna the jungle
No shoulder nah deya so fi cry on
You got to have a heart of a lion
To trample the beast you got to be tough like iron
You got to have a heart of a lion,
It rough inna the jungle
No shoulder nah deya so fi cry on
You got to have a heart of a lion
Got to have a heart of a lion

Like in the days of old,
When mankind used to be bold
You never see a brother get left in the cold
We fight for survival
Woman and children at home,
The rastaman burn brush and comb
And everybody know a King Selassie I alone
Just walk through Vatican and burn down Rome
Deya rise the red green and gold, yo a yo
Hitch a ride with the conquering lion on the way to the studio,
Yes I am a music man, just show I the way to go

Rough, tough, you know
When the Lion is sleeping (x2)

Boom! Come mek we do it today
The ghetto youths nah tarry
And Selassie I soldiers nah 'fraid of nobody
Nah drink them water we no want get sorrel
Right a now me cross the Lord me face get harden
Y'all run out of faith, and nah no pardon
You think me nah member down at Tivoli garden
Youth open your ears and mek your eye dem sharpen
Me feet dem solid and victory sweet and soften
Now you want take mine, I'm not even asking
You think you're rough and tough, true the lion I passing
Silent river run deep
And it will bring everlasting

Mi seh you got to have a heart of a lion,
It rough inna the jungle
No shoulder nah deya so fi cry on
You got to have a heart of a lion
To trample the beast you got to be tough like iron
You got to have a heart of a lion,
It rough inna the jungle
No shoulder nah deya so fi cry on
You got to have a heart of a lion
Got to have a heart of a lion

Lion in the jungle, stay focus never fumble
Whole heap a obstacles, but no we never stumble
The conquering lion, so militant and so humble
You better know your roots 'cause that's the piece to the puzzle There's a whole world of history for you to discover
Your biological mother, the features you get from her
Your DNA and your colour, just like your sisters and brothers
Open your eyes, see the truth that's sitting under the covers
Real lions they hunt, and kittens they cuddle
If you a panther or leopard, I probably call you a cousin
Hyena them a sleep, the lion dem hunting
While the pigs them a snort, a ganja we puffing
The cheetah dem a cheat, like Peter and Bunting
Nah roll good like a wet flour dumpling
But when the lion roar they will have to confront him,
And surrender the crown, 'cause there can only be one king

Rough, tough, you know
When the Lion is sleeping (x4)

Tough like an iron, yo
Heart of a lion (yeh)
Firm in the gideon, (Lutan Fyah)
With the heart of a lion (heart of a lion)
Yo, when the lion is sleeping
