Lyrics
Mr. Preacher man
What you got to say to di nation,
Mr. Preacher man
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away
I’ve been a believer for all of my life
But there’ve been constant conflicts my mind
The people are hurting and crying and searching waiting for a reason to go on
And all you can say is go pray and be patient it won’t be this way for too long
Sitting and waiting to me that seems crazy,
Making them lazy in your congregation
Pleading to a Savior an emancipator
whose very behavior proves you wrong
So tell me
Mr. Preacher man
What you got to say to di nation,
Mr. Preacher man
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away
Since the very beginning you’ve told them the end was near
Fearing damnation they buy their salvation, not living while they’re still here
But you will have to ansa too, for all di tings unnu neva do,
Cause what you teach in Sunday school, you don’t demonstrate
A use emotions tie dem down instead a sen dem fi go roun’
and live di words wha dem a soun’, mek dem participate
Mr. Preacher man
What you got to say to di nation,
Mr. Preacher man
What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away
Di people caught up in religion, traditions of a people
Who did hold us in subjection, rejection of the power that was in our possession
Before all the regression when we an di creator had an intimate relationship
before dem even lan’ ova pon di motherlan’
before dem even get fi ask di question
if we needed dem religion, dem givin’ it to we
a look excuse fi carry dem infection cross di sea
den dem tek di ancient people put dem into slavery
rape and murder in di holy name of Christianity
yes religion is the tool, was the tool of the oppressor
cause they never plan to set the people free.
So tell mi
Mr. Preacher man
What is your reaction to the problems dat we facing
Is not no blame we placing, we jus pleadin we case in
Di best way dat we can
please help the I dem overstand
please help the I dem overstand
Mr. Preacher man
What you got to say to di nation,
Oh Mr. Preacher man
when the youts dem turn away
Tell me Mr. Preacher Man
What you got to say?

IOVE UR MUSIC IT GIVES PEACE TO ONES SPIRIT WATCHING FROM S.A(INTELLIGENT YOUTH MAN )
Being brought up in a seven day church all my life. But I never seam to fit it. I always have a different believe on the teaching I got. There is no love their. Most of us have being blind all these years cause we don't want to understand that we can think for our self, search for the truth. Don't you know that they only preach from what they have being told to. Most of these churches are here to keep JAH people from the truth. They play on your emotion to concur your way of thinking to manipulate you in there false believe... Jah9 show and teaches us to open our eyes to the truth.
She wouldve been a great fit as Rita Marley in One Love. I hope that do that movie over.
Rockfort rock never sounded so tough. Best reggae artist of dis times.
Who is this Girl? Just discover this powerful voice. We love you Jah9. From Senegal in West Africa
welcome man, i am another brother from Senegal..... I discover her in 2013, and since i still jaming Everyday with her music.... Her lyrics are so deep.... An as an African people, we reconize ourself in what she is preaching...
What a song! Shares my thoughts in many ways. Mr. Preacher man propagating the fallacy and foolishness that has been taught to the gullible sheeple from ever since. My eyes are now open. Mr. Preacher man cyaa tell mi nutt'n agen. Big up Jan 9!

Yes Jah9! I love your vibes and your message, stay blessed sistren!
Empress!!!! 💚💛❤️👑👑
I wish di emprezz Jah9 promoted dis chune more, it's not very known and deserves a video. Always have said Christianity was used to justify our ancestors' enslavement.
I don't think to justify. But to condone. And condone was unforgivable, really.
i dont think its christianity, because it depends how you interpret it. its man using religion, just like they use everything and turn it around. it really depends how you interpret your religion. im a muslim sufi, but i dont follow religious leaders and have discernement when hear bs. Your religion is a personal relationship between you and the almighty and no man can tell you what is right and wrong, these leaders use religion as a tool to control and manipulate but thats not what it really is for, its another way to enlightenment between you and God, no matter which way you go...
@@ThriveWithLouise religion is implicit
I love Your music, greetings from Poland sista!

I can't help but think if this song was made on reference to her father, whose a preacher.
Ra Tehuti i was thinking the same thing.
Her father wasn't like other preachers tho, don't think it was for him. Listen to a few of her interviews.
well said!!!
