So Much Things To Say Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Ooh yeah, yeah!
They got so much things to say right now
They got so much things to say
They got so much things to say right now
They got so much things to say

[Verse 1]
Eh!
But I'll never forget no way: they crucified Je-sus Christ
I'll never forget no way: they stole Marcus Garvey for rights
Oo-ooh!
I'll never forget no way: they turned their back on Paul Bogle
Hey-ey!
So don't you forget (no way) your youth
Who you are and where you stand in the struggle


They got so very, so very, so very, so very, so very, so very, so very So-so very, they saying everything
They say so much today
They got so much things to say, so much things to say

[Verse 2]
I'n'I nah come to fight flesh and blood
But spiritual wickedness in 'igh and low places

So while they fight you down
Stand firm and give Jah thanks and praises
'Cause I'n'I no expect to be justified
By the laws of men - by the laws of men
Oh, true they found me guilty
But through - through Jah proved my innocency
Oh, when the rain fall, fall, fall now
It don't fall on one man's housetop. Remember that:
When the rain fall
It don't fall on one man's housetop


They singin': so very much, so very much, oh so very much
So, so very -
They got so much things to say right now;
Yeah, they got so much things to say

[Verse 3]
Hey, but I'n'I - I'n'I nah come to fight flesh and blood
But spiritual wickedness in 'igh and low places
So while, so while, so while they fight you down
Stand firm and give Jah thanks and praises
I'n'I no expect to be justified
By the laws of men - by the laws of men
Oh, hey through Jah to prove my innocency
I told you wicked think they found me guilty


They got la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la;
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
- they "la" very all the time
So much things to say, rumor about
They got the rumor without humor
They don't know what they're doin', yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
