Settle Satan

Settle satan.
Now this lyric I am chatting is a serious one
and it's dedicated to satan.
With this deadliest weapon temptation
he leads people to the pit by the million.
Can't fool me cause' me a conscious man
kick temptation with mi foot and box it down with my hand
I say yes to the right and no to the wrong
and with confidence I sing this song.
Right from the beginning in the garden of Eden
the devil tempted eve and he tempted Adam.
Samson was the strongest ever pon the land
Delilah took his hair because of temptation.
Remember how Judas betrayed The Son Of Man
for thirty silver pieces he did this wrong.
Even nowadays it goes on and on and on
envy and greed will bring a nuclear war man
but my children don't fret, hold on strong
and join me pon the chorus, Pato Banton.
Back off! When you see me a come
cause' you don't stand a chance with this youth man.
Me will pick up the mic a in me right hand
and spread truth and right all over the land.
To the black man white man Chinese and Indian
cause the gates of Jah are open to all nations.
As far as I concern this is my opinion
be upright in Jah's sight and you can't go wrong.
It's not easy (I know!) in this place called Babylon
surrounded by sinning and confusion
disillusion by things on your television
depressed with your financial situation.
Then all the bills you have to pay can strech a mile long
no food in the cupboard for you and your children.
All over the world people have this problem
and the first thing they do is blame the system.
But every wicked system throughout the nation
belongs to the devil and his companion.
But I know when Jah judgment finally come
