Lyrics

I can see so many hypocrites
Everyone are talking this and talking that
Watching how I cook my pot, Jah Jah
They always say I'm doing the wrong thing
And behind me they trying to su-su-su-su-su-su under me
I want to show them that I'm a Rastaman
To make the people know my culture
So you see I've got to stand up on my feet
I've got to carry on my road
Every man got a talent, I got my talent
I've got to show them what it is all about
I've got to say Rastafari
All I can see so many hypocrites, see them
Man and man just fighting against their brother
And if I don't make sure that I'm around the right side
I have to beg Jah for forgiveness
If I cook dumpling John Tom gon' tell me speak
They always think of me and I don't see them
But one thing more I've got to control
Excuse me while I smoke my spliff
So you see you got a little time to sniff
All I have got is good good sensi love
To give you baby is just that all I see
I know who else was su-su-su-su-su-su under me
So many watching, watching and peeping at me
All I have seen so many hypocrites, see them
Everyone should show the way
No man should never watch my business
You shouldn't do the things to me to see, to see, to see
I know a man who understand
