Lyrics of Resist Not Evil by Protoje
verse
Ye resist not evil
Whoever shall smite thee
Will have to face the almighty
Take away my coat and my cloak
Jah have me riches so me never broke
chorus
I say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
chorus
Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say (I pray)
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
verse
Whoa, hm-m
How do I say it in a manner that
Don't seem hype if I say we bring the banner back
Red gold green not a fad, badge of honour that
Defender of the faith fi a fact we deh ya pon attack
verse
Today, tomorrow, man a warrior nuh follow that
Try put a stop to that, but a just a comma dat
Matter fact a so the sentence goes
Never try get revenge from these senseless foes
chorus
And I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
chorus
Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
verse
Me likkle bethren turn 16
Sight up the king and a adjust him dreams
Ones can't overstand a wonder what this means
Develop fear in them heart and them start set fi him
verse
Him tell me (tell me), Jah never make him get defeat
So him move like a gaddy and prevail pon the street
You nuh see it?
A three shot him get fi eat, but him still deh ya stand up pon him feet
chorus
Him say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (you say?)
chorus
Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way (never)
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (watch me now)
verse
You turn your back on the well when you done drink the water
All the quarrelling it woulda must bring disaster
Fight against your brother just offending the master
Demma coulda join it woulda must kill me faster
Oh, I seen the strategy before, fi drain I energy hypocrisy fi sure
Father, please take my nemesis away from Jah premises
chorus
A me say Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say (Selassie)
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross (Jah, yo)
chorus
Lord, I pray, please never let me lose my way
In anything I do and say
I keep Jah in my heart, the Father shall carry I cross
