Blackheart Man

Tikya the Blackheart Man, children
 I say, don't go near him
 Tikya the Blackheart Man children
 For even lions fear him
 Tikya the Blackheart Man, children
 I say, don't go near him
 Tikya the Blackheart Man children
 For even lions fear him
 Growing in a neighbourhood for such along time
 That is filled with fear
 I can't go here, can't go there
 And I ain't supposed to go anywhere
 When I ask my Mom if she could let me go out and play
 She said be careful of the stranger
 Giving candies to children
 And then take them away
 He lives in the gullies of the city
 He's the Blackheart Man (The blackheart Man)
 Even in the lonely parts of the country
 He's the Blackheart Man, Blackheart Man
 Got no friend, no home, no family
 He's the Blackheart 'Man, The Blackheart Man
 He is famed to live just like the Gypsy
 He's the Blackheart 'Man, The Blackheart Man
 Growing and learning and gathering, for myself a little more
 Experience jumping over the fence
 Curiousity has brought me yes it's brought me, a little common-sense
 Trodding the road of life, I've come to this one conclusion
 That everything is equal under the sun, all that is createdby JAH mighty hand
 And he said knock and it shall be opened
 Seek and Ye shall find that wisdom is found in the simplest of places,
 In the nick of time, knock and it shall be opened
 Seek and ye shall find that wisdom is found in the simplest of places, in the nick of
 Time and now I trod the same road of aflictions just like the
 Blackheart Man, just like the Blackheart Man
 Getting my share of humiliation just like the Blackheart Man
 Just like the Blackheart Man
 You'll find me even in the prison of the dungeons
 Just like the Blackheart Man, just like the the Blackheart Man
 I even get blamed without a reason just like the Blackheart Man
 Just like the Blackheart man yau
 No cross, no crown, no sorrow, no trial and crosses In-a-I way
 But the hotter the battle is the sweeter JAH JAH victory
 Ancient children use to say if you want good
 Your nose got to run run run
 How could the world go free, and let JAH bear the cross alone
 And them that drink of the old wine hath no place for the new
 For the new and the stones that are head of the corner are the
 Same one that the builders refused
 Now, it's the Blackheart Man, children
 Who've become the wonder of the city (rep).
 For the new and the stones that are head of the corner are the
 Same ones that the builders refused
 Now hear me when I say
 It's the Blackheart Man, children
 Who've become the wonder of the city
