《My Opinion》歌词

[00:05:42] My Opinion - Pato Banton

[00:05:42] First of all I thank you Jah

[00:05:42] For the beauty of life

[00:05:42] And for the spiritual strength

[00:05:42] In my moments of strife.

[00:05:42] I thank you for the bible

[00:05:42] Like a compass its my guide

[00:05:42] So I won't get lost or left (no way)

[00:05:42] By the way side.

[00:05:42] Although I've lost my dread

[00:05:42] I haven't lost my sight

[00:05:42] And until my day of rest

[00:05:42] I will follow your light.

[00:05:42] I will fight against injustice

[00:05:42] Hypocrites, parasites and sodomites

[00:05:42] And over evil I will win

[00:05:42] With the truth and the right.

[00:05:42] My name is Pato Banton

[00:05:42] This is my opinion

[00:05:42] My name is Pato Banton

[00:05:42] And this is my opinion.

[00:05:42] I do not hold no prejudice for any other nation

[00:05:42] As far as I'm concerned we're all a part of God's creation.

[00:05:42] Like dog a dog and cat a cat a human is a human

[00:05:42] So there should be no prejudice because of one's complexion.

[00:05:42] There should be no prejudice because of one's religion

[00:05:42] For every man has got the right to make his own decision.

[00:05:42] I don't just talk to every man but also every woman

[00:05:42] Understanding gives you knowledge but the fear of God is wisdom.

[00:05:42] Wisdom is the compass that will show you the direction

[00:05:42] Towards the light of Jah! and away from all illusion.

[00:05:42] My name is Pato Banton

[00:05:42] Me born and grow a England

[00:05:42] My name is Pato Banton

[00:05:42] And this is my opinion.

[00:05:42] Sometimes I cry for my people in South Africa

[00:05:42] Depressed and persecuted by apartheid law.

[00:05:42] Under the rule of a mass murderer

[00:05:42] Who goes by the name of Mr. Botha.

[00:05:42] With tears in my eyes I look to the skies

[00:05:42] And wonder how long must my people suffer.

[00:05:42] But just like Malcom X and Martin Luther King

[00:05:42] Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela.

[00:05:42] My dream is for all men to live as brother

[00:05:42] So all freedom fighters let's sing together.

[00:05:42] Woe Mr. Botha!

[00:05:42] Free up South Africa!

[00:05:42] You see.

[00:05:42] In a world so full of hate crime and injustice.

[00:05:42] What we need right now is love sweet love.

[00:05:42] So won't you come and sing this song with me right now.

[00:05:42] What the world needs now is love sweet love.

[00:05:42] No not just for some but for everyone.

[00:05:42] This is my opinion.

[00:05:42] Jah Rastafari.
