Fruitful Days
Big Mountain
I ya man have come to know the movement looks strong, ey.
From reading the scriptures, oh, I know we ain't wrong, no.
Jah Jah people work together, we help out one another.
And we ain't got no time to lose,
Must teach the ignorant truth, so.
More fruitful days;
And that is what the people need.
More fruitful days, ah yeah!
Can't wait for promises of salvation,
It's time to free our people, yeah,
With a promise of some dignity.
Rise up and heal the situation,
Hear you call, yeah, yeah,
Rasta people must face our destiny.
More fruitful days;
And that is what the people need.
More fruitful days;
Time to heal the hurtin'.
More fruitful days;
Seeking out the righteous.
More fruitful days.
Them a build their conspiracies,
With no justice in sight.
You just can't keep fillin' up the youth,
With all those dirty lies.
It's about healin' people.
Healin' the people.
Healin' the people.
I tell ya straight:
If we take the time, you know, we will see, ay-a,
That to tell the youth the truth, is the only remedy.
More fruitful days;
That is what we're fightin' for.
More fruitful days;
Time to heal the people.
More fruitful days;
Seeking out the righteous.
More fruitful days;
It's about healin' people. (repeat 7 times)
And mashing down oppression.
And rights in this ya nation.
And seeking out the righteous.
And teachin' right the children.
