Oh Jah, bless us in these times
For thou seeth the wicked try
to hold I and I down
But thou shalt strike them,
and bless I and I I
They've tried to hold me down
In more ways than one
They've closed the door on me
so many times
But still they can't keep me down
I've got a positive mind
It may be long, but it won't be forever
But I know one day, I will get my share
It may be long, but it can't be forever
I know my time's on the cake,
it's waiting out there
Stumbling blocks in my way,
I see it on every side
Hey, but still I won't worry no friend,
but that's how it'll be my
One day they will see
It be long, but it can't be forever
I know my slice of the cake
is waiting out there
Give it to me, give it to me
It's mine, it's mine
Give it to me, give it to me
Stop wasting your time
Give it to me
I've worked so hard,
to achieve what I've got
Don't try to stop me,
cause I'm the son of Jah
It may be long, but it can't be forever
I know one day, I will get my share
It may be long, but it can't be forever
I know my slice of the cake
is waiting out there
They've tried to stop me
in more ways than one
They've tried to keep me back
but still I stood strong
They've closed the door on me
so many times
But many more are open up,
cause I've got a positive mind
It may be long, but it can't be forever
I know one day, I will get my share
It may be long, but it can't be forever
I know my side's up the cake,
he's waiting out there
It may be long,
but it won't be forever
I know one day I will get my share
It may be long, but it won't be forever
I know one day I will get my share
