Lyrics
Function
Verse 1
I hear the sounds of the world when I wake up
Soldier don’t throw your life away
You gotta step up
Be the captain of your own ship
You only got your self, one life to live
Master of your dreams
You gotta wake up
Build yourself up to be strong
You gotta wake up
Build your strength up for your kin
You gotta wake up
If you really want to win
You gotta function in a world that’s full of sin
Chorus : Lala la la la la
Verse 2
The world as we know it in shambles
The earth dying under our feet
What was real is fake and fake is true
Little Billy and bobby sharing the same shoe
There's no standards
So Real woman must stand up and Let them know
We are born strong, bright and true yeh!!
We gotta stand . Wake up stand up
Chorus : Lala la la la la
You gotta wake up
Build yourself up to be strong
You gotta wake up
Build your strength up for your kin
You gotta wake up
If you really want to win
You gotta function in a world that’s full of sin
Chant
Wickedness on The rise yeh
Youths dem ah suffah inna Babylon yeah,
It’s time to stand up for truths and rights,
Youth man testifyYou gotta stand and fight
Say whah! ilismo ah tell them again
Wayne stoddart a tell you say to run go tell your friends
Tell them say D riddim it ah light up D fire dem
Pon D youths dem on the corners of the earth
Rise up rise up come testify
Tell everybody about the most high
Rise up rise up go testify
Tell all the youth dem about Adonai
Chorus : Lala la la la la
Brother If they say your week. Trust yourself
Sister if they say your not enough tell them ; I'm greater than you think, Greater than you think
Jah gave us a spirit of no fear, I'm a no limit soldier
God gave me a spirit of no fear
Be that no limit Soldier
