Wild Fire N Roots

Wild Fire n Roots
May 3, 2013 

I am trying

youth dem dying
the real warriors
da lions an kings dem
not walk upon earth again
see it der- see it der
where is the roots
where is the heart
we knew fe dem love
deep love was penetrating
the youth dem na 
feel it-see- dem imitating
we are demonstrating
the depth of wats left .
Of the real love

I am trying

The youth dem dying
dem cannot survive
without a heart 
on fire- That deep rooted desire
Wat happen to dat
burning desire
we need the youth dem
To catch the fire-We Need
Passion and love 
to rise  up again
mek dem feel it- 
mek fem know it
so they can show it...
So true lions and kings 
can walk pon earth again

I want to live to see
dem love again
Like the ones we 
knew back when.
Bob-
Big Youth-
Toots-
Gregory
Sugar Minot-
SsterCaroll  
I- tree"s 
Barrington -
Tosh ---Oh  my Gosh.  
I hope the passion 
rises again . and  
love N desire-
 
Spread like wild fire.
Once again. 
And ignite our 
youth to deal with dem roots
fe know dem
purpose an dem worth
