[00:02.51] It Was Written (Ft. Stephen Marley, Capleton And The Drag-On) - Damian
[00:42.54] It was written up in the book of life
[00:48.99] That man shall endure forever more
[00:54.34] It was written up in the book of life
[01:00.60] That man shall endure forever more
[01:05.85] Well did you know the pen
[01:07.30] Is stronger than the knife
[01:08.66] They can kill you once
[01:10.09] But they can't kill you twice
[01:11.82] Did you know destruction of the flesh
[01:13.41] Is not di ending to life
[01:15.34] Fear not of the anti-christ
[01:17.10]
[01:17.63] Did you know that I
[01:18.92] Exist before the earth
[01:20.38] And did you know my eyes
[01:21.90] Are window to the world
[01:23.41] Did you know you can't go ah Zion
[01:25.60] and ah wear jerry curls
[01:27.09] Can't tell di boys from di girls
[01:29.02] Your bodies just a vehicle
[01:30.78] Transporting the soul
[01:32.29] It's what's inside people
[01:33.56] Is beauty to behold
[01:35.15] Fear not of evil
[01:36.47] Every day dem flesh it grow old
[01:38.89] Changes of the times take a toll
[01:41.11] It was written up in the book of life
[01:47.79] That man shall endure forever more
[01:52.96] It was written up in the book of life
[01:59.56] That man shall endure forever more
[02:04.97] The one ya name, fear is in the eyes of di beholder
[02:08.18] And love is in the presence of the love maker
[02:11.07] Life is in the words of the comforter
[02:13.56]
[02:14.26] Endure much longer
[02:16.04] Live much longer
[02:17.54] Fear is in the eyes of di beholder
[02:20.13] And love is in the presence of the love maker

[02:26.09] Endure much longer
[02:27.72] Live much longer
[02:29.19] A vester on his chest and Rastafari is his name
[02:31.92] The gift of everlasting life for us to all sustain
[02:34.70] Blessing that you all be got
[02:36.47] Lessons taught you all forgot
[02:37.93] Rasta call it shit you not
[02:39.73] Do you remember Elijah
[02:41.86] And his chariot of flames

[02:49.80] And love is in the presence of the love maker

[04:30.66] Storm upon mi prada
[04:31.77] Watch a bomb holla
[04:32.90] Watch 'I'm run, hit the floor

[04:38.27] It was written up in the book of life
[04:44.67] That man shall endure forever more
[04:49.85] Watch for sticks and stones
[04:51.41] Stumbling blocks in piles
[04:52.78] Life is one big road
[04:54.23] Miles on top of miles
[04:55.84]
[04:56.49] So blessed be the soul
[04:57.56] That always remains a child
[04:59.34] And most people don't even smile
[05:01.65] There's a natural mystic
[05:02.95] Blowing in tru the air
[05:04.57] So keep it realistic
[05:05.77] And always be aware
[05:08.42] The truth is crying out
[05:09.41] And it's so loud and so clear
[05:11.14] But most people won't even hear
[05:13.42] Spiritual pollution is in the atmosphere
[05:16.61] And with so much confusion
[05:17.89] Can one be happy here
[05:19.35]
[05:20.23] The gift of Rastafari is for all man to share
[05:22.89] But some would rather to be so unfair
[05:25.49] It was written up in the book of life
[05:31.80] That man shall endure forever more
