Alborosie - Warrior Lyrics

I and I a warrior, ha
Mm
Guide and protect us, I pray, yeah
Oh, yo

My shield is on and my sword in hand
Ready to take down Babylon (Take down Babylon)
See them coming ten thousand strong (yo)
Trying to slew the righteous man

But I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), just hold yah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), warrior

Life is a battle, this world is a warzone
Money, the shackles they use to keep us all bound (woah)
Disease as weapons
Biological warfare

I'm a lion inna Zion, me no follow bagga chat (Zion)
Fungo-fungo people dem have no place pon mi mob
Me sharp like a fishing hook, me firm like a rock
If you don't pree my intelligence, just walk, woah

But I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), just hold yah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), warrior

From the days of Moses and Pharaoh (I say)
From the days of David and Goliath (guide us)
From the banks of the river Nile
We have been holding strong from birth to shelter (oh, yo)

I have lyrics inna me pocket, lyrics inna me book
Lyrics inna me head a coming out like roots
Dreadlocks, I could have been a prime minister or a pop star
A general inna the African war

Through lyrics and notes, I fight like Che Guevara
Italian, Jamaican, Trengen is the other
Weep out Golden Man, Yamakos always inna me heart
And this time we shall not fall apart

I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), oh
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), oh
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), just hold yah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), warrior

But I'm a warrior, warrior (I'm a warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (I'm a warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (I'm a warrior), just hold yah
I'm a warrior, warrior (I'm a warrior), warrior

Even when my back's against the wall
Still chanting (ooh, la-la-la-la)
I shall rise and I shall not fall
I'm chantin' (ooh)

Heaven and earth shall see the work of lurking off camps
By chantin', by chantin'
By chanting

I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), oh
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), oh
But I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), woah
I'm a warrior, warrior (warrior, warrior), warrior

Warrior, warrior
I'm a warrior, warrior
I'm a warrior, warrior
I'm a warrior, warrior
