[ Featuring King David Dread ]
Be who you are, do what you want to
Nobody knows, what you have gone through
Be who you are, do what you want to
Don't sell your soul, cause it'll haunt you (yeaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
Why you basing ya worth on another's perception? That's misdirection bwoi
Some will fake them concern, just to learn when ya hurt and that is deception woi
Still Selassie I guide I and I AbabaJahnoi nevah fail the I
My heights infinite and them cyant blind I
My third eye wide Sight them from a mile
We different, my Ancestors built Pyramids and left evidence
No timidness, haffi dweet fi di yute in the tenements with no privilege
Fiyah bun a Yacoob, live like a Sadhu never mind mi Yattoo
Every Ink significant, no cartoon
Mi nuh born a April watch who you call Fool
There's Lots of people who are fraid to be true
Living a lie, to get the approve
Still love who you are with no apology
Free ya self from ya self hate philosophy
Be who you are, do what you want to
Nobody knows, what you have gone through
Be who you are, do what you want to
Don't sell your soul, cause it'll haunt you (yeaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
So many people don't know them self, still they have them self fi blame
Them nevah hold no meds a fi them mental health and wonder why them tun insane
Mi seh yuh right in the thick of it all
Focus and conquer ya fears Jah know it would benefit all
Sekkle it dung, center ya self a yuh making the calls so nuh question it none
Haffi learn unno shadow then master using it
First mind always the right suh unno start choosing it
Knowledge is key still unno abusing it
See the spark when the truth a lick
Haffi brave and cyah too panic
Couple spliff, couple root tonic
By the rivers of Babylon, I and I haffi trod along
All the traumas and problems couldn't stop I from troddin on
Natty dread haffi stand strong nah nuh time fi nuh tatrum
Haffi move like Sam Sharpe
Rebel and be conscious
Self hate is a cancer
Liberate all who survived the Maafa
Be who you are, do what you want to
Nobody knows, what you have gone through
Be who you are, do what you want to
Don't sell your soul, cause it'll haunt you (yeaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
It'll haunt you (yeaaaah)
