lyrics

Mek we start wid a prayer yo
Di bush a burn so a none stop fire now
Me get di word so me move kinna higher now
Spiritual war affi ready cyaa tired now

People me start wid a prayer yo
All if you def you still affi hear da one ya
yo
Me a di voice but Jah Jah a di power yo Spiritual war affi ready cyaa tired now

mm Mek we pray fi di demons
Dem outta road naked and pre man
Purpose mislead distraction
Ultimate life goal conversion
Oh God mek we stay inna di word man Genesis to di book a revelations
Be we sheild when we encounter satan
Direct we path so we no loss inna di gideon

Mighty One
Address every funny gal & every funny man
Clean dutty hearts dutty intention
And deal wid di killer weh a kill fi di wrong
Please bless up every juvenile every young man
Protect di little girls give dem guidance
Bless up Jamaica mi little island
And bless i and i plus i and i song


CHORUS
Mek we start wid a prayer yo
Di bush a burn so a none stop fire now
Me get di word so me move kinna higher now
Spiritual war affi ready cyaa tired now

People me start wid a prayer yo
All if you def you still affi hear da one ya
yo
Me a di voice but Jah Jah a di power yo Spiritual war affi ready cyaa tired now

God gi me strength
You alone know weh me going up against
Spiritual war me a fight to di end
And a you me choose so a you me defend
A bag a enemy but me know you a mi friend
Stand inna mi faith Karamanti no bend
Di weapon I a use is a pad & pen
Wid dat i a beat and batta bruise dem

Aw right me put in the work extend
Push myself to di limit transcend
Way pass di borders di creeks and bends
So me can do yu will uphold my end
Nuff no believe some say God dead
Some a praise man some a praise dem self
I a praise you cause you gi me strength
And a dat a my prayer right now amen

Chorus
