Letra de Rock Stone

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

[Capleton:]
Hear di man say
R-r-r-rockstone was my pillow could'ntfind place fi sleep
Pot dem ampty, wi haffi find food fi eat
Every day wi terrorize by soldier and police
When the thing gem a strum and the thing dem a beat
From dem a play cow boy, and Indian, and Chief
From the first, to the third, straight up to seven street
One thing in a wi mind a fi trample the beast
And meck it in a life, and inherit has the meek

Because the stone dem pay off
Self employ, 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 wi stepping out a babylon
Then one by one, one by one
Hail King Selassie I the canquering lion
Lion lion

[Chorus:]
Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow
I say, Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow

[Sizzla:]
Help us now
Take us from the slum
Never give up matta what, strictly fire burn
Hail Rasta, take us from the slum
Never give up matter what king Selassie I blessing come
Sufferation is 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 a fact, there is a after shock
When cold ground was my bed and my pillow was a rock
Try to make it through the system all doors were lock
Yet nothing beats a try so I ain't goin stop
Mount a time they write a book on yuh
Are set amount a crap they woulda put on yuh
Yet when yuh in the dirt they wouldn't look on yuh
They would only scorn and wanna wipe there foot on yuh
So open up, zion dour
Ethiopia Africa for sure
Liberate the poor, the poor, ehhh
Mi nah lie, true mi hail Selassie I dem waan fi war I
Read mi bible, turn to peace and praise to fari
Good bye babylon good bye, good bye
Open up zion door
Mount zion Ethiopia for sure
Children of Israel, children of Israel

[Chorus:]
Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow
I say, Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow

[Stephen Marley:]
Hear mi now
Jah man mi cool, nuh strumble like you Walk pon di street, mi nuh gwaan for fool
Arrive at the dance, the mic a my tool Eat pon table, sit inna stool
Me black me brown; me brown no black Ribs on me chest, me spine mi back
Wait til yuh hear when dis riddim drop Head, yuh toe, yuh body a rock
From me pon di mic, Steve Marley a chat Firm and strong, doh step pon the lot
The peaceful, righteos, rastaman Rod of correction inna him hand
Preachin out to man and woman Give riches to King Solomon
Now bass come out and trebble a top Cap an no buck, an nuh buck 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 mi never will stop We hot no cold, wah cold nuh hot
Live in a house, no live in a flat Up inna zion, the righteous wil top
Jah blow breeze, the Devil cannot

[Chorus:]
Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow
I say, Rock stone was my pillow
Rock stone was my pillow
