It was written

Corus:
And it was written up in the book of life
'cause the man shall endure forever more (2x)

Well did you know the pen
is stronger then the knife
and they can kill you once
but they can't kill you twice
did you know destruction of the flesh
is not the ending the life

Fear not of the anti-christ
did you know that I exist
before the earth
and did you know my eyes
are windows to the world

Did you know you can't go a Zion
and wear a jheri curls
Can't tell the boys from the girls
the body is just a vehicle transporting
the soul it's what's inside
a people is beauty to behold
fear not of evil

everyday them flash it grow
old changes of the time take the toll

Chorus:
And it was written up in the book of life
'cause the man shall endure forever more (2x)

I won them fi in fury's in the eyes
of di beholder a lovers in the presence
of the love maker rises in the words
of the comforter endure much longer
way much longer
Careful of your certain stranger
Selaisse never born in any danger
and them never crucify as new savior
he leck off himself inna the ruler

A vest around his chest and rastafari is his name
the gift of everlasting life
for us to all sustain lesson that
you all forgot lesson taught you all
forgot rasta call I shit you not

Rasta call I shit you not
do you remember elijah
and his chariot of flames
same blood that ruins through my vains

Fury's in the eyes of di beholder
a lovers in a presence of a love maker
rises in the words of the comforter
endure much longer way much longer (2x)

Careful of your end certain stranger
Selaisse never born in any danger
and them never crucify as new savior
he leck off himself inna the ruler
babylon nah function when them a failure
so be carefull of them cellular and pager
'cause I sign see them I see danger
so them gratefull selaisse I pray tay yo

Chorus:
And it was written up in the book of life
'cause the man shall endure forever more (2x)

upon a bloodclot and fill the block
with bummer ass cops, cops me dun talk

So police they gone pop you before you pop me
'cause if you get me you got me you shot me know'll

watch him rut hit the floor told him come

Chorus:
And it was written up in the book of life
'cause the man shall endure forever more (2x)
