Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that trespass against us

Although them again we will never, never, never trust



Dem now, know weh dem do, dig out yuh yei while dem sticking like glue

Fling, skind, grin while dem plotting fah you

True, Ah Who???



Forgive them father for they know not what they do

Forgive them father for they know not what they do



Beware the false motives of others

Be careful of those who pretend to be brothers

And you never suppose it's those who are closest to you, to you

They say all the right things to gain their position

Then use your kindness as their ammunition

To shoot you down in the name of ambition, they do



Forgive them father for they know not what they do

Forgive them father for they know not what they do



Why every Indian wanna be the chief?

Feed a man 'til he's full and he still want beef

Give me grief, try to tief off my piece

Why for you to increase, I must decrease?

If I treat you kindly does it meant that I'm weak?

You hear my speak an think I won't take it do the streets

I know enough cats that don't turn the other cheek

But I try to keep it civilized like Menelik

And other African czars ovserving stars with war scars

Get yours in this capitalistic system

So many caught or got bought you can't list them

How you gonna idolize the missing?

To survive is to stay alive in the face of opposition

Even when they comin' gunnin'

I stand position

L's known the mission since cinception

Let's free the people from deception

If you looking for the answers

Then you gotta ask the questions

And when I let go, my voice echoes throught hate ghetto Sick of men trying

to pull strings like Gepetto

Why blacks people always be the ones to settle

March through these streets like Sowetro

Like Cain and Abel, Caesar and Brutus, Jesus and Judas

Backstabbers do this



Forgive them father for they know not what they do

Forgive them father for they know not what they do



It took me a little while to discover

Wolves in sheep coats who pretend to be lovers

Men who lack conscience will even lie to themselves, to themselves

A friend once said, and I found to be true

That everyday people, they lie to God too

So what makes you think, that they won't lie to you



Forgive them father for they know not what they do

Forgive them, forgive them

Forgive them father for they know not what they do

Forgive them, forgive them



Gwan like dem love while dem rip yuh to shreds

Trample pon yuh heart and lef yuh fi dead

Dem a yuh fren who yuh depen pon from way back when

But if yuh gi dem yuh back den yuh mus meef yuh end

Dem noh know wey dem do

Dem no know, dem no know, dem no know

Dem no konw, dem no know wey dem do
