(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
Lord
(Lord, one spliff a day ah keep di evil away, ah)
It’s a Holy Mountain

Yeah di most high in dis place shall be
Dem wan nail mi up pon di cross like Jesus (him mussi mad)
Dem ah plan ‘gainst mi life, but god nah lef us (him mussi mad)
But a lightning and thunder
Jah send mi protection from his Holy Mountain
Lightning and thunder (break dem asunder, man)
Protect my life, please, protect my son, Jah
Lightning and thunder
Dem wan mi fall, ah mi blood dem ah come for
Lighting and thunder (run wild)
Jah Jah yuh take me so far, dem cyaan see me blunder
We reach the Holy Mountain
Hear me the Most High, His Imperial Majesty and Royal King Selassie I the first
Conquering lion of him tribe of Judah elect of Jah rule all ah dis world
(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
(Cah one spliff a day ah keep di evil away, ah)

Right through the gates of hell
Wait that retched soul
That live a life of evil
Out of control
Tormented soul, tormented soul, go away
Go away
Go away from me
Take dem away
Father, take dem away
Right through the gates of hell
We powers over darkness and light
Hypocrites and Jezebels dance to the devil’s delight
They made a pact, they made a pact, ooh
Blood and sacrifice
How they kill, never torture and use the name of christ
I chant them away
The blessing, the blessing, two years stressin’
Said I wouldn’t make it, I was being tested
My blessings, my blessing
I thought I wouldn’t make it without being tested
My blessings, they blessing, they blessing
Gotta protect
My blessings, my blessings
Gotta protect
My blessings, my blessings
Blessings
Ah me seh light it up
Smoke up di herb
High up, sailing like a bird
Like a fire, burn it ah burn
Burn it ah burn
Bless up, step up, a full military
Seh dem ah wish you bad, but dat nuh necessary
Everyday you say yuh prayers, nothing ordinary
Bless and protective from the holy sanctuary
Evil people only wanna to see you dead and buried
Have an evil life we seh ah di almighty bless we
And they hate you for the truth
Watch yuh enemies
Watch yuh enemies
The blessing, the blessing, two years stressin’
Said I wouldn’t make it, I was being tested
My blessings, my blessing
I thought I wouldn’t make it without being tested
My blessings, they blessing, they blessing
Gotta protect
My blessings, my blessings
Gotta protect
My blessings, my blessings
Blessings, my
(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
(One spliff a day ah keep di evil away)
