Lyrics

I am watching dem
Slightly changing everything
Weh Rasta is all about
True love, positivity weh we bring
So they should know
The words of Jah is ever living..
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yes, yes, yes)
(I'm) I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
(I'm) I'm my brothers keeper
It's more than the turban, more than the robe
And more than the natty hair
It's much, much more than that to say Selassie Marcus I
Me no do this fi image, me no mimic
Me no do this fi fame
Go and tell them Kelly did not this fi material gain
Nuff' a call dem self Rasta they should be ashamed
A call king Selassie name in vain tell them it's no game
Dem a wolf, dem a wolf so mi see dem spiraling down
Kelly a rock of Gibraltar standing firm on solid ground
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yes, yes, yes)
(I'm) I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
Got to wear khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yes, yes, yes)
Yeah man, I'm my brothers keeper
Ever so humble mi nah grumble mi a satisfied
With the little that Jah-Jah give to I 'n' I
Ites, green and gold: Jah in control
Promised land is there for I, beauty behold
So Rasta don't you differ, stand firm and don't you quiver
King Sellasie I almighty will deliver
Touch not the Lord's annointed and don't you defile
And your works must be pure in Jah-Jah sight
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yes, yes, yes)
(I'm), I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
(I'm) I'm my brothers keeper
You see di elders, dem weh set it must be turning in dem grave
(Turning in dem grave)
Just fi see how dem yah younger Ras behave
(Rastaman behave)
Jah gwaan shorten dem days, who done most is left
'member, say, the road to Zion is one way
Some live in a glass house and still throwing stone
All dem walls and barriers, Rasta broke it down
As long as the king sit upon the throne
Rastaman is never on his own
Rasta, mi say deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Woah, woah, woah)
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
(I'm) I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
