Proud To Be A Dread - Des'ree[00:00:00]
Tafari tries to get a job[00:00:01]
Ten letters behind his name[00:00:04]
Born up in the cornfields[00:00:07]
Tafari doesn't know the game[00:00:10]
The game is no respect for life[00:00:12]
Even less for rules[00:00:16]
Winners only need apply[00:00:18]
Sorry no rooms for fools[00:00:21]
Tafari looks up to the stars and[00:00:24]
Wonders if there's life on Mars[00:00:27]
Some say he should shave his head[00:00:30]
But he's proud to be a dread[00:00:33]
'Cos I'll be better I'll be stronger[00:00:35]
For the truth I know takes longer[00:00:38]
I've the cunning of the tiger[00:00:41]
And the Wisdom of the trees[00:00:44]
I won't be sad refuse the sorrow[00:00:47]
I look forward to tomorrow[00:00:50]
I'll release my anger[00:00:54]
'Cos I'm proud to be a dread[00:00:56]
Selassie tries to find a home[00:00:59]
To rest his weary head[00:01:02]
A place where he can take his girl[00:01:05]
To share this spiritual bed[00:01:09]
When he's greeted at the door[00:01:11]
The sign has changed his tune[00:01:14]
Though the queen is full of child[00:01:17]
Sorry there's no room[00:01:20]
Selassie looks up to the clouds[00:01:23]
He curses hard and shouts out loud[00:01:26]
Remembering his father's words[00:01:29]
A whisper from the dead[00:01:31]
'Cos I'll be better I'll be stronger[00:01:34]
For the truth I know takes longer[00:01:37]
I've the cunning of the tiger[00:01:40]
And the wisdom of the trees[00:01:43]
I won't be sad refuse the sorrow[00:01:45]
I look forward to tomorrow[00:01:48]
I'll release my anger[00:01:52]
'Cos I'm proud to be a dread[00:01:55]
'Cos in this life you have to take a chance[00:01:57]
Why else live at all[00:02:01]
'Cos in this life to climb a mountain[00:02:03]
Sometimes expect to fall[00:02:06]
'Cos in this life nothing comes easy[00:02:09]
If it does it has a price[00:02:12]
'Cos in this life a martyr suffers[00:02:15]
Look at Jesus Christ[00:02:19]
Leo faces many trials[00:02:21]
But hold hid head up high[00:02:25]
He won't allow the hatred[00:02:28]
To Make his spirit cry[00:02:30]
Leo looks up to the moon[00:02:33]
Sitting in its silver spoon[00:02:36]
Maybe I should change my job[00:02:39]
Be an astronaut instead[00:02:42]
'Cos I'll be better I'll be stronger[00:02:44]
For the truth I know takes longer[00:02:47]
I've the cunning of the tiger[00:02:50]
And the wisdom of the trees[00:02:53]
I won't be sad refuse the sorrow[00:02:56]
I look forward to tomorrow[00:02:59]
I'll release my anger[00:03:02]
'Cos I'm proud to be a dread[00:03:05]
I'll release my anger[00:03:26]
'Cos I'm proud to be a dread[00:03:28]
'Cos I'll be better I'll be stronger[00:03:31]
For the truth I'll be a seeker[00:03:34]
I've the cunning of the tiger[00:03:37]
And the wisdom of the trees[00:03:40]
In my dealings I'll be honest[00:03:43]
To myself I make this promise[00:03:46]
