Strong Like Jah Lyrics by Dustin Thomas

Mountain High

2013

This is a song for the vagrant and corrupt
This is a song for the things that I’ve done
This is a song for the pain that I’ve felt
This is a song for the pain that I’ve dealt
This is a song for the darkness I see
This is a song for the darkness in me
This is a song for the lines that we draw
This is a song for the lines that we cross
One falls asleep in Palestine, a victim to a gun crime
One’s cruising down a city street, one falls asleep on concrete
One’s working in the oil mines, one can’t get to sleep at night
I guess some know real war, where families are torn apart
Don’t be afraid. Don’t give up
Don’t lose hope. Don’t give up
Don’t be afraid. Don’t give up - don’t give up
I’m gonna be strong like Jah, I’m gonna have a heart like a lion
Like David and Goliath, I’m gonna sing loud; I’m gonna stand tall
In this world of war, I can be your peaceful companion
And we’ll stand hand in hand and shine a light into the dark
*beatboxing*
This is a song for the lonely and confused, getting their views from the evening news
This is a song for the reds and the blues, this is a song for political views
This is a song for the darkness of our age, this is a song for the turning of the page
This is a song for the [?], don’t be blinded because the truth is, we’re just one race
One falls asleep in Israel, hot victim to the fires of hell
One’s cruising down a city street, one falls asleep on concrete
Some things I’ll never understand, my big brother’s in Afghanistan
[?] know real war, where families are torn apart
Don’t be afraid. Don’t give up
Don’t lose hope. Don’t give up
Don’t be afraid. Don’t give up - don’t give up
I’m gonna be strong like Jah, I’m gonna have a heart like a lion
Like David and Goliath, I’m gonna sing loud; I’m gonna stand tall
In this world of war, I can be your peaceful companion
And we’ll be the last ones standing, and shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
Shine a light into the dark
I’m gonna be strong like Jah, I’m gonna have a heart like a lion
Like David and Goliath, I’m gonna sing loud; I’m gonna stand tall
In this world of war, I can be your peaceful companion
And we’ll stand hand in hand and shine a light into the dark
Today I burned all my money
Today I burned all my money
Today I burned all my money
