Selah, Emmanuel 1st Marcus Haile Selassie
Too much slandering and maligning let Emmanuel principle stand
Too much unjust runnings between man and man

You can only be real don't be lying to yourself
For that's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
And let them know Selassie I a bus de seal
Be real don't be lying to yourself
That's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close eh
Nuff a dem no clean alright

The wicked won't change their ways that's the scenario
Give dem an helping hand because a dat me come fe offer
Kind things you doing good though they take us to the slaughter
Still a hail the three in one black Osana
They plot against the meek inna dem evilous endeavor
Labor long to steal the blackman treasure
By the principles that keep us together
Some a chat 'bout Rastaman culture

The kind of respect that brings longevity
They teach us wrong and right, a damnation livity
Burn dem guilty play, fight negativity
More love inna de ghetto community

You can only be real don't be lying to yourself
For that's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
And let them know Selassie I a bus de seal
Be real don't be lying to yourself
That's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
A nuff boy no real

Total annihilation dem say de youths carefree
And a chat say Rasta money come easy
Check de people with the mouse upon de computer skill
Monopolizing the children 666 lazar beam

They gave us no respect that brings longevity
They teach us wrong and right damnation livity
Burn dem guilty play, fight negativity
What we need is love

You can only be real don't be lying to yourself
For that's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
Cause nuff a dem no clean eh
Just be real don't be lying to yourself
That's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
Selassie I bus de seal eh

The war must be resolved inna de close community
Bad man sign the peace contract eh
It's all about the basketball netsize tax
Money is not the problem is because a me locks
Diagnosis inna me tam and turban
No cap to the skull because me natty long
From the spinal chord to me brain Selassie is the almighty one

You can only be real don't be lying to yourself
For that's the way wickedness come in eh
Just be real show them love up close
Selassie I bus de seal eh
Just be real don't be lying to yourself

Me mumma was a widow of war
Never have no house no land no pretty car
I am the bread winner they call I de star
Na na now now hear me out

You can only be real don't be lying to yourself
