Rock Stone - Stephen Marley/Capleton/Sizzla

Written by：Lowell Dunbar/Clifton Bailey/Stephen Marley/More

Rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

I say rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

Hear the man say

Rock stone was my pillow

Could find place find sleep

Pot dem empty we have find food fi eat

Everyday we terrorize

By soldier and police

When the thing dem a strum

And the thing dem a beat

From dem a play cowboy

And Indian and chief

From the first to the third

Straight up to seven street

One thing in a we mind

Haffe trample the beast

And make it in a life

And inherit as the meek

Self employed cannot get lay off

Mount a work mi have

Can't even get a day off

Who did waan fi stop mi now

Dem find out seh dem way off

Alright

So mi seh one by one one by one

One by one we stepping out ah Babylon

And then one by one one by one

Hail the king Selassie I the conquering lion

Lion lion

Rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

I say rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

Help us Jah

Take us from the slum

Neva give up Matta what

Strictly fire burn

Hail rasta take us from the slum

Neva give up Matta what

King Selassie I blessing come

Sufferation is a thing

Could be no harder time

Got to widen your views

Got to broaden your mind

What we face in the ghetto

Nowhere else can you find

Hunger poverty a system so unkind

As a matter of fact

There is an aftershock

When cold ground was my bed

And my pillow was a rock

Try to make it through the system

All the doors were locked

Yet nothing beats a try

And so I ain't go stop

Mount a time they write a book on you

A set amount a crap

They would a put on you

Yet when you in the dirt

They wouldn't look on you

They would only scorn

And wanna wipe they foot on you

So open up zion door

Ethiopia Africa for sure

Liberate the poor the poor

Mi nah lie true mi hail

Selassie I dem waah fi war I

Read mi bible

Turn to peace

And praise Tafari

Goodbye Babylon goodbye goodbye

Open up zion door

Mount zion Ethiopia for sure

Children of Israel children of Israel

Rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

I say rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

Hear me now

Jah man me cool nuh stumble like you

Walk pon di street me nuh gwaan for fool

Arrive at the dance di mic a my tool

Eat pon table sit inna stool

Me black me brown me brown no black

Ribs an me chest me spine a me back

Wait till you hear when dis riddim drop

Head you toe you body a rock

From mi pon di mic steve marley ah chat

Firm and strong doh step pon the lot

The peaceful righteous rastaman

Rod of correction inna mi hand

Preaching out to man and woman

Give riches to king Solomon

Now bass come out and treble a top

Cap an no buck an nuh a no cap

Sweetest singer was sugar minott

Man a come in and ah give me a shot

Dracula tun inna vampire bat

When him see sun him cyah take that

Eye dem dark fi use contact

I pon the mic raggamuffin a chat

Fi mi head dread me head it no plat

Nuh fraid ah no mouse nuh fraid ah no rat

Pray to jah me never will stop

We hot no cold wah cold nuh hot

Live in a house no live in a flat

Up inna zion de righteous will top

Jah blow breeze the devil cannot

Rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow

I say rock stone was my pillow

Rock stone was my pillow
