About

Roots reggae song about life struggles and perseverance through faith

Lyrics

Chorus

Struggle fill my plate so heavy

Another day begins I pray to Jah above

Winds of Babylon never easy

But I hold my faith like a lion’s love

Post-Chorus

Oh oh Jah guide me

Oh oh Jah guide me

Verse 2

Land can’t bring enough for the little ones

Rents rising high, can’t catch a sun

Fuel drink the money, pocket running dry

Still they chase me, false work in their eyes

Pre-Chorus

Segregated minds and neighborhoods

Can’t pretend we’re living good

Alien souls falling behind

Trying so hard not to cross the line

Chorus

Struggle fill my plate so heavy

Another day begins I pray to Jah above

Winds of Babylon never easy

But I hold my faith like a lion’s love

Post-Chorus

Oh oh Jah guide me

Oh oh Jah guide me

Chorus

Struggle fill my plate so heavy

Another day begins I pray to Jah above

Winds of Babylon never easy

But I hold my faith like a lion’s love

Post-Chorus

Oh oh Jah guide me

Oh oh Jah guide me

Verse 2

Land can’t bring enough for the little ones

Rents rising high, can’t catch a sun

Fuel drink the money, pocket running dry

Still they chase me, false work in their eyes

Pre-Chorus

Segregated minds and neighborhoods

Can’t pretend we’re living good

Alien souls falling behind

Trying so hard not to cross the line

Chorus

Struggle fill my plate so heavy

Another day begins I pray to Jah above

Winds of Babylon never easy

But I hold my faith like a lion’s love

Post-Chorus

Oh oh Jah guide me

Oh oh Jah guide me

Bridge

Dreamed of my brother lost somewhere far

No dollar or ticket, just hope and scars

Tears in the letter Mama sent last June

All weeping memories under this moon

Verse 3

Empty cupboard, hunger knocking slow

City so cold but the fire won’t go

War on the mind, still I kneel to pray

Carry my truth through another grey day

Pre-Chorus

Warriors falling but I stand still

All I got left is Jah’s will

Silent battles no one can see

But I walk on, Jah walk with me

Chorus

Struggle fill my plate so heavy

Another day begins I pray to Jah above

Winds of Babylon never easy

But I hold my faith like a lion’s love

Post-Chorus

Oh oh Jah guide me

Oh oh Jah guide me
