Teach Them How To Pray

Ohhh ... Yo
I'm not a Christian
Nor am I a Rasta Man
But I still acknowledge the Almighty One

We have a serious problem and it needs to be addressed
Before the whole country get laid down to rest
And I'm sure you will see that its our best interest
We need to change it now cause the youth a get dissed
We teach dem how to minus
We teach dem how to add
We teach dem right from wrong
We teach dem good from the bad
We teach dem how to bath comb their hair and look neat
But dem life it incomplete

Because we never teach dem how to pray
Before we teach them how to get involve inna gun play
Teach dem how to pray
An how to work hard and make it in a life one day
Teach dem how to pray
What goes around comes back around some day
Teach dem how to pray
Teach dem how to pray

Yo ...
Right now me feel it fi younger generation
Because dem never learn fi hold an isis or a meditation
Me feel it for entire Nation
Because the youth dem a come up
Dem meet destruction and damnation
What ever happens to the parents that strive to work hard
This reckless levity is cause for alarm
De youth do have no one to look up to
Because the big people nah set no example

Because we never teach dem how to pray
Before we teach them how to get involve inna gun play
Teach dem how to pray
An how to work hard and make it in a life one day
Teach dem how to pray
What goes around comes back around some day
Teach dem how to pray
Teach dem how to pray

If we don't teach how to meditate
Them nah go rise dem nah go elevate
If you no teach dem to hail up the big mon
Dem nah go overcome temptation
You better teach dem how to meditate
Or else de youth dem nah go elevate
Teach dem how to pray yeah yeah yeah yeah

Because we never teach dem how to pray
Before we teach them how to get involve inna gun play
Teach dem how to pray
An how to work hard and make it in a life one day
Teach dem how to pray
What goes around comes back around some day
Teach dem how to pray
Teach dem how to pray
