[Intro]
I am watching them slightly changing everything
What Rasta is all about
True love, positivity weh we bring
So they should know, words of Jah is heavily deh
[Chorus]
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yes-yes-yes)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yes-yes-yes)
I'm my brothers keeper
[Verse 1]
It's more than the herb, more than the robe
And more than the natty hair
It's much, much more than to say Selassie Marcus I
Me no do this fi image, me no mimic me na do this fi fame
Go and tell them Kelly him na do this material game
Never call them self Rasta they should be ashamed
Call king Selassie name in vain tell them it's no game
Dem a wolf, dem a wolf so mi see dem spiraling down
Kelly are rock of Gibraltar standing firm on solid ground
[Chorus]
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yes-yes-yes)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yes-yes-yes)
I'm my brothers keeper
[Verse 2]
Ever so humble mi na groumble mi so satisfied
With the little gift that Jah-Jah give to I and I
Heights, green and gold Jah in control
Promised land is there for I, beauty behold
So Rasta don't you differ, stand firm and don't you quiver
King Sellasie I almighty will deliver
Touch not along the night and don't you defy
And your work must be pure in Jah-Jah's eyes
[Chorus]
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yes-yes-yes)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'm my brothers keeper
[Verse 3]
You see di elders, dem said it must be turning in dem grave
Just to see how dem a younger Ras behave
Jah will shout 'til dem deaf who do most is left
Remember, say, the road to Zion is one way
Some live in a glass house and still throwing stones
All dem boys and liars, Rasta broke it down
As long as the king sit upon the throne
Rastaman is never on his own
[Outro]
Rasta, mi say deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Got to wear Khaki and turban everyday
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'm my brothers keeper
Deeper, Rasta should be deeper
You must care about the people
