1999

[intro]
A big tune
Yeah, you know
Righteousness it exhalt the nation, (yo!)
You better know
Spirit cannot manifest without flesh (yo!)
(Oh, yes, Oh, yes)
Unno wise you know
Check di energy
(Yo!)

[Chorus]
Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh mi live a Zion

[verse 1]
I am who I am
Elected and permitted to teach the nation
Give thanks and praise to the Almighty One
Selassie I, Emmanuеl, Marcus fi di vision
Unno fi overstand
So me say one in a three and three in a onе
Never disagree, all an iration
You better check di energy and di constellation
Then you would a know the man live in a man
The physical haffi communicate with the inner man
Hail king selassie rasta man
I

[Chorus]
Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh HIM live a Zion

Them waan'..

Arrghhhhaha, arghhhhhaha
Arrghhhh, arghhhhhaha
Eh! Arrghhhh

[verse 2]
Hey

"Nay, see seh fi stop call wi name!"
Disya a nuh no dog

Well nuff a dem mi see say dem no stop act strange
Nuff a dem caught up all inna di wrong range
Dis the prophet and now dem a go get gringe
Nuff a call di King name through dem waan' get fame
Hail King Selassie I without a lane
Dem waan' touch mi levels and di whole-a-dem strain
Unno see? it's a pain

[Chorus]
Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh HIM live a Zion

Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh HIM live a Zion

[verse 3]
Well!
No spirit cannot manifest without the flesh
Inna the North, and the South, and the East and the West
Mi bun them, and me gon' bun them dead
Mi bun them, and me a still bun them yet
Well nuff a dem mi tell dem say go think and check
From the North, fi di South, fi di East, fi di West
And me Hail king selassie I as the highest
Nuff a dem dem gwaan laid to rest
But righteousness haffi manifest
Ghetto youth hold up your head
Babylon get upset dem a reject
With them Internet, dem technology
Weh dem come fi take?
Well nuffa dem a di least
See say dem a di least

[Chorus]
Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh HIM live a Zion

Them want know who I am
And where I'm from
Who give me the authority fi bun the evil man
Must be the conquering lion
Unno fi overstand seh HIM live a Zion

[verse 4]
I am who I am
Elected and permited to teach the nation
Tell di whole a dem
Dem better overstand
Hail Selassie I and you will live long
Hail Emmanual I and you shall surely live long
Hail Marcus you shall surely live long
Well a one in a three, and three inna one
Them never disagree all an iration
Well this is the prophet who get the vision
Just check the energy and the constelation
Then you woulda see say di man live inna man
Mi hail King Selassie I....
