First time round the microphone fi the new millennium
From the year start, so it haffi come directly from the heart
Father God inna the thoughts. Spragga BenzChorus:
Praise to the father mi seh praise to the son
Praise to the father fi di works wey yuh done
Praise fi di heaven, mi seh praise fi di ground
Praise fi di rising and the setting of the sun

Thank yuh fi nuh still haffi ah buss the A.K's
Barely miss mi death mi get whole heap ah close shaves
Never foe ah second ever doubt that you'd save
Cause mi see the judgment of the wicked who strayed
And mi see the blessing of the righteous man ways
Haffi read ah psalm on the sabatical days...andChorus
