[Intro: Gentleman]
Behold all righteousness everlasting ya man
Make we root out the source of injustice where dem day man
[Chorus: UB40]
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
[Verse 1: UB40]
Fill them with feeling straight from the heart
Dealing with healing will set you apart
Respecting their meaning; releasing the dove
Will chill them with kindness instil them with love
[Chorus: UB40]
Don't lose it Rudie get high on the buzz
Remember how kindness, could fill you with love
The sun could be shining with blue skies above
In love with the kindness, so kind of in love
[Verse 2: Gentleman]
Yes you gotta open up and realize it no make no sense at all
Fi go fuss and a go fight
Your guns and your knives paralyze
Why you nah just let them fall and stop terrorize i
Open up your eyes and realize it no make no sense at all to have a heart out of ice
Your guns and your knives just a paralyze
Why you no just let dem fall
You gotta take some time look around and then tell me what you see
If you no blind nah bother tell me you no see JAH beauty
Love and kindness it a di key
Think before you act up your superiority
Mankind a come a long way why you wann give it up and throw it all away, away
What dem a promote up everyday we go stay confident no matter what dem a say
Give thanks and blessings caus JAH bless another day
Our meditation will never let I go astry
Dirty Babylon we will never obey dem can't tell we what to do because we do it our way
[Chorus: UB40]
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving; so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
[Verse 3: BANTU]
Don Abi:
This is a serious message to all bad men
You can never emancipate when hit and run is your plan
Constructing evil structures as a device for your work
I can see the next man trembling in a state of shock
Hold it down peace is bound to come around
Push it up believe in love that’s the word
Ade Bantu:
E simi simi simi
F’okon bale cooli temper area boys
F’okon bale why di posing with the noise
Join the voice with a choice not the one with a Royce
Raise your spiritn in the battle of the righteous ‘gainst the evil
Free your mimnd from the hustle and di trouble and the schackles
Better stop all the miming and the killing of JAH people
Caus too many of us are dying tears are multiplying
[Chorus: UB40]
Hold it down Rudie enough is enough
Kill it with kindness and kill it with love
No more deceiving; so throw off the gloves
Kill them with kindness kill them with love
