Gentleman - Caan Hold Us Down lyrics

[Intro]:

[Daddy Ring]:

This one is real

Yo, a Daddy Rings, Gentleman and Barrington Levy

[Gentleman]:

Babylon a watch we round the clock

Wondering when we gonna launch and attack

[Chorus]:

No powers gonna hold us down

Not even dem peagon sound

No powers gonna hold us down

You´ll never see we wearing a frown (Repeat)

[Verse1]:

[Gentleman]:

I've been chanting Jah powers from morning

Truths and rights I man keep performing

I hear the Babylon bell how it alarming

Dem see a righteous ghetto youth and ready fi swarm him

[Verse1]:

[Daddy Rings]:

Dem shoulda overstand the power wha Jah storm bring

When it blow the whole a dem hafi go calm king

Long time we did a issue ´bout the warning

We ago hold Lucifer and disarm him

[Verse1]:

(Barrington Levy)

I know Jah will always be there

And i know he is everywhere

Without Jah where would i be

And he is the one for me, you see

[Chorus]

No powers gonna hold us down

Not even dem peagon sound

No powers gonna hold us down

You´ll never see we wearing a frown (Repeat)

[Verse2]:

(Daddy Rings)

Dem think we fool but we tell dem seh we not

Caan make no wulf come invate the flag

Nuh get caught ina no buubie trap

I and i royal natty dreadlock

[Verse2]:

[Barrington Levy]:

Well as the sun shine and the wind blow

That´s how i know, That´s how i know

I take a look through my window

That´s how i know, That´s how i know

[Verse2]:

[Gentleman]:

If you nuh know the truth yourself you are decieving

Trumpet a sound

And i man is leaving

Higher ground that is where i am going

Too bless to stress can´t stop me from growing

[Chorus]:

No powers gonna hold us down

Not even dem peagon sound

No powers gonna hold us down

You´ll never see we wearing a frown (Repeat)
