Lyrics by：H. Spence

Composed by：H. Spence

Roots radical

Roots radical

I'm a radical roots radical

I'm a true born Jamacan

Yes I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

I'm a radical roots radical

I'm a true born Jamacan

Yes I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

They won't see me round the corner

They can't catch me on the straight

They won't see me round the corner

They can't catch me on the straight

'Cause I'm a radical roots radical

'Cause I'm a true born Jamacan

Yes I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

The Babylon system get I down

I'll own the well when they lock I in a cell

The Babylon system get us down

Oh what the hell when the rice won't swell

I'm a radical radical roots radical

And I'm a royal African man

I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

Roots radical

Roots radical

Roots radical

Roots radical

Ain't no stops no traps no barriers

Can stop me on my way

And if they try to hurt me

I'll just up and fly away

'Cause I'm a radical roots radical

'Cause I'm a true born Jamacan

Yes I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

The Babylon system teach us wrong

Wanting us all to sing their song

The Babylon system teach us wrong

Wanting us all to fool around

But I'm a radical radical roots radical

'Cause I'm a royal African man

I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

Roots radical

Roots radical

Miles away from home

Roots radical

Roots radical

Miles away from home

Roots radical

Roots radical

Miles away from home

Roots radical

Radical roots radical

Natural African man

A radical a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

'Cause I'm a radical roots radical

Miles away from home

I'm a radical roots radical

I'm a true born Jamacan

Yes I'm a radical roots radical

And I'm miles away from home

Roots radical
