[Verse 1]
Where'd you been?
It's nice to see ya
Come make we hail the king
Praise mama mega
We can play riddims
Create some real song
And make a joyful noise onto the Lord
If a hate you bring
A beg you leave us
Come mek we break from sin
And make a clean start
We can stray within
And face your demons
And make a joyful noise
Dem ago hide and seek
When dem a go do when dem see I man reach yea
When the power from the divine unleash
Nuff a dem deven ago survive one week
And me seh dem ago cry and weep
When dem see seh I man reach
When the divine unleash
Dem ago x3
[Chorus]
Oh yea me seh dem ago run
When Jah Jah come run
When Jah Jah come run x2
Seh dem ago run, run, run yes x2
We should live in Jah Jah's side
And sing unto the most I
We should live in Jah Jah's Side
And sing unto the most
[Verse 2]
Live getting harder and dying getting it easier
The poor getting smarter and the rich dem greedier
Life expectancy is shorter
But the fast life getting speedier
So really me a leader fi start target the media
So to all a di fathers
Mek sure love in unu heart fi the daughters
Mek sure good in unu heart fi the sons
Or else dem ago draw fi the gun
Make grandpa draw fi a flask a di rum
And grandma fall to the ground
But I and i fall to the heart a the Lord
And dem talk seh him will neva come
[Chorus]
But then dem run
Oh yea me seh dem ago run
When Jah Jah come run
When Jah Jah come run x2
Seh dem ago run, run, run yes x2
[Outro]
I seh a rise with the all mighty in the morning
Set just like the sun within the evening
Rise with the all mighty in the morning
Set just like the sun
Oh yea me seh dem ago run
When Jah Jah come run
When Jah Jah come run x2
Seh dem ago run, run, run yes x2
