lyrics

Jah Him deh for the evidence
Jah Him deh for I happiness
I joy, yeah, through the tribulation I

For Jah only knows how this time is perilous
Because the wicked are strong
Not for long Jah Jah!
Corruption on all sides, you can't
See the horizon, sometimes sums die
And it reflects upon the walls of their con-unity
And in their tv schemes, oh!
We ask what you want us to be!

Perilous so perilous so perilous
Perilous so perilous so perilous
There's no parallel to this
In any past experience
Perilous so perilous so perilous
Perilous so perilous so perilous
There's no parallel to this
In any past experience

So won't you come and experience it
Please, give I the light of day!
Jah alone I hail!
Come in!

So come again Jah children, within the riddim
To redeem all their evil ways, within one righteousness
Of the King who step and create love and highness
Ride giddy up on the progress Haile Selassie I is, oh Lord

Perilous so perilous so perilous
Perilous so perilous so perilous
There's no parallel to this
In any past experience
Perilous so perilous so perilous
Perilous so perilous so perilous
There's no parallel to this
In any past experience

Oh, any past experience
Oh Jah dem nah see it, though I&I a dubbing in the capitol
Praises the Most High way
Through all the trial and tribulation
Haile praise
That's why they come, mind game and their refrain
Not want let this equality reign
Don't want to see Jah love come after
Justice regain it's rightful place
Within the I&I array, so
Come move your waist
They want to play games
Forever and a day, forever and a day!
What a damned disgrace!

Perilous so perilous so perilous
Perilous so, it's so perilous people, you nah see it?
The time is too perilous people
People don't believe I!
Feel it from your soul, your core
I&I people we can't ignore
No parallel to this
In any past experience

Perilous so perilous so perilous your day
Perilous so, so perilous in here
No parallel to this
In any past experience
Perilous so perilous so perilous your day
Perilous so perilous so perilous in here
No parallel to this
In any past experience, yeah

In any past experience
So won't you come experience it?
For it is Jah alone I hail! Oh Jah!
Who come and give I the light
Come give I the light, come give I the light
Come give I the light of day again
