Post by: exiled on May 02, 2003, 07:40:39 PM
You Are Strong...You Are Strong...You Are Strong !..

you are strong my Brother / don't let dem call you wrong /
you are strong my Sister / got to keep on holdin on /
you are strong Jah Children / de Truth is written in stone /
these words i sing are not my own..
Voices deep widin / bring a message straight from Home..
You are strong...you are strong...you are strong...

de re-flection in de mirror / is not de face i know /
images dat surround me / all there to help me grow /
not much time for myst-e-ry / until i reach dat stage /
de story has no ending / unless you turn de page ...

an everytime i fall me down / A Mighty Voice calls out to me /
no matter what they say or do / still you will be free....
you are strong...

bombs they still will fly / why must de righteous cry /
what is stronger than de sword / in a world completely blind /
an what profit has a lover / in a world so filled wid scorn /
but de story is not over / wid de plantin of de corn ..

you are strong My Brother / never let dem call you wrong /
you are strong my Sister / got to keep on holdin on /
these words i sing are not my own /
Voices deep widin / bring a message straight from Home /
you are strong / you are strong / you are strong...

empti-ness is a virtue / widout it who can grow /
lon-li-ness a human con-dition / for all away from Home /
still we feel de Spirit / and de word is clearly Life /
One Soul will fulfill it's mission / before Jah Light will shine /

an everytime i fall me down / a Mighty Voice calls out to me /
no matter what they say or do / still you will be free..
You are Strong...

Rise up mi Brothers and Sisters / awareness is a gift /
could i sing a song like dis / widout Jah as my Lift /
could i even open dis mouth / unless HIM will it so /
sufferin an hate i nah overstand / what is written shall un-fold/
dem a reap just what they sowed...seh ya reap jus what ya sow..

You are strong my Sister / don't let dem call you wrong /
you are strong my Brother / got to keep on holdin on /
you are strong Jah Children / dis Truth is written in stone/
Voices deep widin bring a message straight from Home..
You Are Strong...

Pos-i-tive i-rations / between de lines of my songs /
YOU ARE STRONG..
Souls dat long for Truth /in dis world they will roam...
YOU ARE STRONG...
until they find their way / back to dat place called Home..
You Are Strong !...You Are Strong !...You Are Strong !..

so now whenever again you feelin / all down an blue /
remember dis little message / dat i leave right here for you /
no matter what they say / no matter what they do..
You are strong !
