Mek mih goh home, mek mih goh home


Leggo mih hand babywrong me naah tan inna Rome


Tek back yuh scissors, tek back yuh comb


No longer will I linger, no more will I roam


 


Verse 1


A full time fi repatriation with reparation


Over 500 years yuh have wih under exploitation victimization


Baggage like savage yuh carry from dih mother land


And nuff nuff million dead pan di ocean


And di unfortunate few survive fih work pan dih plantation


And di whip wih still feel today inna dis yah generation


 


Soh Mek mih goh home, mek mih goh home


Leggo mih hand babywrong me naah tan inna Rome


Tek back yuh scissors, tek back yuh comb


No longer will I linger, no more will I roam


 


Verse 2


Yuh plantation civilization flourish with irrigation weh it get from wih sweat


And still yuh seh a we owe yuh di foreigh debt


Yuh give wih freedumb so weh still cyaa talk yet


And dih harder wih try a dih deeper down in-dependence wih get


Fih emancipation many woman and man meet dem death


But still chain pan wih brain nuff noh free yet


 


Soh Mek mih goh home, mek mih goh home


Leggo mih hand babywrong me naah tan inna Rome


Tek back yuh scissors, tek back yuh comb


No longer will I linger, no more will I roam


 


Verse 3


 


In di search to be free, this is what I see


It is up to we fi secure wih liberty


Because he who set yuh free


 Can always put you back, into captivity


So first yuh have to free up, yuh mentality


Look in the mirror, and worship what you see


The image and the likeness of the almighty


I am that I am and I’ll be what I’ll be


Like a bird, like a bee, free free free


 


Soh Mih haffi goh home, Mih haffi goh home


Leggo mih hand babywrong me naah tan inna Rome


Mih ago dash weh yuh scissors, and fling weh yuh comb


No longer will I linger, and no more will I roam
