Strike the root, yeah-yeahStrike the root, yo-yoStrike the rootStrike the rootWhen there's no guns to shootAnd so we protect the youthThat's how we stri-i-ike the rootThat's how we strike the rootWhen there's no guns to shootAnd so we protect the youthThat's how we stri-i-ike the rootThat's how we strike the rootControl the world like we like puppets on a stringFor congo, true fi do, we wanna bowl a t'ingYou serious, and see we move and run awayBut still, them can't blind what when them brothers sayCorrupted by evil everydayThem can't know Jah people, them pine awayIf them thinks that we're feeble and easy preyThe beast and the juggernaut will walk this wayWhen there's no guns to shootAnd so we protect the youthThat's how we stri-i-ike the rootThat's how we strike the rootThey tell me time and time again, my lordNot just of the evil tree of no thoughtCan't go, chopping up them play with new youthsCan't a little when if you loosen the nooseJust take your mind outside, they calling my lordJust look within yourself, there's riches for youIf you just can't make them other excuseWhoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, when you are the rootStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike, strikeStrike the rootsWhoaStrike the rootStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the rootsStrike the roots
