Every Nigger Is a Star Video (MV)

Jah Rastafari
Well me look an' me tell dem seh rude boy
And me look an' me tell dem
I and I seh a kingdom that is divided by itself must fail
All for one and one for all, I and I shall be like a green tree
That's planted by the river bank of dunns river falls

A weh me tell dem rude boy
African people come follow me, hear this

Well, every nigger is an African and also a star
And we know where we coming from and know who we are
Every nigger is an African and also a star
A no brag we a brag and a no blar we a blar
Teeth white like a snow, skin black like a tar
And anytime dem see we a de show we a star

Africans donu better cut out de war
United we stand and divided we fall
Oonu hear me Africans oonu better cut out che war
United we stand and divided we

Because deep down in a Africa we fore parents roam
When we never did have no need fe no scissors nor comb
When de animals were tamed and we shared de same home
We use to walk up on silver and cook up on gold

Drink de cow's milk and den we suck de honey comb
But that was in the days of beginning and old
When exploiter they came with religion unknown
They robbed us our culture an' our kings they dethrone

And they carry us in a Babylon true we strong bone
But no matter what they do Jah guiding us home
We a go chase dem crazy bald head out of we town
A we plant de corn and build de cabin alone

Well, every nigger is an African and also a star
And we know where we coming from and know who we are
Every nigger is an African and also a star
A no brag we a brag and a no blar we a blar
Teeth white like a snow, skin black like a tar
And anyway you see dem we a de show we a star

Africans donu better cut out de war
United we stand and divided we fall
Oonu hear me Africans oonu better cut out che war
United we stand and divided we fall

Oonu see the coming of Jah, Jah it id not very far
Him nah go drop out a sky like a falling star
Nor appear like a soldier from 1JR
Him nah go come in a no jet nor na big fast car

Him a go come like a thief in a de night from a far
Wid de fire in a him eye like a burning cigar
Hair white like a snow, feet like a brass bar
Nah go come with no 'matic and a no SLR

Hear me now super, you haf fe hear ne now star
When Jah Jah come a brimstone fire war
Him nah contribute to no skin color bar
Neither take no side with no guy weh preach war

Because, every nigger is an African and also a star
And we know where we coming from and know who we are
Every nigger is an African and also a star
A no brag we a brag and a no blar we a blar
Teeth white like a snow, skin black like a tar
And anyway you see dem we a de show we a star

Africans donu better cut out de war
United we stand and divided we fall
Oonu hear me Africans oonu better cut out che war
United we stand and divided we fall

Because this is not He-Man an is not thunder
Neither superman nor the one skeletar
This is not Tarzan make believe jungle star
These are the African children wearing the African scar

Ancient motherland ans she so pretty and far
Millions of children were stolen from her
Bought into slavery and sol like a car
Fe cut sugar cane, cotton and quail cigar

Under Jah moon and Jah sun and Jah star
Hear me now super you haf fe hear me now star
A no brag me a brag no blar me a blar
Them never make no weapon fe go fight no war

But, every nigger is an African and also a star
And we know where we coming from and know who we are
Every nigger is an African and also a star
A no brag we a brag and a no blar we a blar
Teeth white like a snow, skin black like a tar
And anytime dem see we a de show we a star

Africans donu better cut out de war
United we stand and divided we fall
