What doc said. Rasta is not a whole word. Rastafari is 2 words put together. Ras = prince, Tafari = Sellasie's birth name. Nothing to do with hindu or sanskrit. There have been many Ras's in Ethiopa. I see lotsa people into midnite, anyone from the v.i.?

interestingly in sanskrit Das (male) or Dasi (female) is used in similar way, it means something like devotee

big love for mi bredren, great thread!

Stand firm in obedience
Stand firm in solidarity
Stand firm in obedience

The eyes are the light
Of your body
Look into the heights
See you are somebody
Somebody worthy of noble deeds
Jah ina I and I
Jah ina everybody
Jah ina I and I
Jah ina everybody
Jah ina I and I
Jah ina everybody

Oh Rasta Fari
Oh Rasta Fari
Oh Rasta Fari
Oh Rasta Fari

If you have a heart ruling over all
If you have a heart, if you have a heart
Ruling over every other subject part
You legislate with conscience
And then make you rules
You base all decisions in unshakeable truth
To hurt and intolerance
This is the end
If you don’t do this
You must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
There will be no end
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer
Judah conquer

Hate without apology for any false way
The depths of Jah precept I will obey
Steadfast unmovable in His laws I will stay
Forever was here long before today

If you have a heart
If you have a heart
Ruling over every other subject part
Legislate with conscience
And then make your rules
Base all decisions in right and truth
To hurt and intolerance this is the end
If you don’t do this you must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
There will be no end

Unto nations and systems
Unto offender and victim
Mother earth has seen blood and likewise rain
For their father’s sins
The children in pain

If you have a heart
Ruling over every other subject part
You legislate with conscience
And then make your rules
Base all decisions in unshakeable truth
To hurt and intolerance
This is the end
If you don’t do this
You must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
Must fight again
There will be no end

Not fearing the inevitability of death
Giving praise and thanks for every sunrise
And every sunset
With the sake red draw of every living breath
I know to know Jah works
Is to live without regret

Hear wha
The eyes are the light of your body
Look into the heights
See you are infinity
Somebody worthy of noble deeds
Jah ina I and I
Jah Ina everybody
Jah ina I and I
Jah Ina everybody
Jah ina I and I
Jah Ina everybody

I will praise thee oh Jah
For I am fearfully and wonderfully made
Marvelous are thy works
And that my soul knoweth right well
How precious also are thy thoughts
Unto me oh Jah
How great is the sum of them
If I should count them
They are more in number than the sand
When I awake I am still with thee
Surely thou will slay the wicked oh Jah
Depart from me therefore ye bloody man
For they speak against thee wickedly
And thy enemies take thy name in vain
Do not I hate them oh Jah that hate thee
Am I not grieved with those
that rise against thee
I hate them with perfect hatred
I count them my enemies
Search I oh Jah
And know I heart
Try me, know I thoughts
See if there be any wicked way in me
And lead I in the way of Iva lasting

Acres and acres !
We spell it with a G-A-N and call it GAN-JAmaica

So me tell babylon say no fi touch me grown
And me tell the wicked man say no fi cut it down
Me never come up ah your place and try fi shut it down
And never use my bulldozer and try fi buck it down
Me tell the youth them bring some weed and "couchie come"
And tell them bring some more food and me "couchie come"
I say them want me weed ground

Me prefer plant the weed than fi go bust me gun

[Chorus]

Yo again ah bigger jugement !

Ah that me smoke, ah no joke, me nah take no dope

[Chorus]

People want change so them sent fi obama

ras helped me discover myself about 15 years ago.

I am no longer ras but it has guided and shaped me in profound ways that I would never deny.

daps to anyone truly repping.
