[Verse 1]
I'm a man, I'm a lover
Man of love, a lover man
I'm a dread, undercover
But not a dread upon my head
I'm a reggae music lover
And I rock my roots every day
[Verse 2]
Don't let no man tell you no different
Don't let no man bring you down
It's reggae music that we're gonna play
[Verse 3]
So let the roots take ya
Yo let the roots music take ya higher
Oh let that roots music take ya away, yeah
Roots take ya
[Verse 4]
Don't let no man tell you no different
Don't let no man bring you down
It's reggae music that we're gonna, the music's what we're gonna play
[Verse 5]
Oh yeah
Roots music
Hey
Oh yes, now
[Verse 6]
Now you can't tell me what is real
And I can't tell you how you feel
But music more than anything
My friend, it sure can, yeah
'Cause no matter what I'm going through
I know I've always got my roots
[Verse 7]
Don't let no man tell you no different
Don't let no man bring you down
It's reggae music that we're gonna, the music's what we're gonna play
So let that roots take ya
Yo let that roots music take you higher
Oh let that roots music take ya away, yeah
Roots take ya
[Verse 8]
Don't let no man tell you no different
Don't let no man bring you down
It's reggae music that we're gonna, the music's what we're gonna play
[Verse 9]
When I rise, rise up in the morning time
I give thanks for what I've got, for love and so much more
Like blessing me with music
For the massive to use it
There's no way you can take that from me
No way you can take it from me
[Verse 10]
Please let my roots take ya, love
[Verse 11]
Yo let that roots music take you higher
Oh let that roots music take ya away, yeah
Roots take ya
[Verse 12]
Don't let no man tell you no different
Don't let no man bring you down
It's reggae music that we're gonna, the music's what we're gonna play
