Lyrics Lucky Dube – Rasta Man’s Prayer
Text:
There comes a time
In everyman’s life where he’s got to face
The truth no matter what
We are coming to you father
With our sins and everything
To thank you
To thank you
Those that smoke marijuana
Wanna thank you father
For making it grow internationally
They wanna thank you lord
Even though police cut it down
Sometimes they burn it down
But it grows again
Thank you father
Chorus:
We wanna thank you father
For everything you’ve given us …
Nations that oppress other nations
Wanna thank you father
Even though it’s painful to be oppressed
But they thank you…
For making them strong
Politicians wanna thank you father
For making them to be able
To lie with a straight face
While the nation cries
They wanna thank you lord
Chorus: till fade
