Steel Pulse - Prodigal Son

Woy! Desperation has return,
Sodom and Gomorrah, no deh yah, so!
Woy! Desperation has return over, yonder,
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah, so!

Wild one, you are like the Prodigal Son, yeah,
And if you're the Prodigal Son, my friend,
Then you're the one, you.
Left taking your only possession your culture.
To enter a world known for hacklings in abundance, yeah.
The hustlers of life, have hooked and drained you from the man,
Form the man, that you used to be, turn your back on us.
Return, Rastaman where you came from,
The land of your forefathers.
Reaching the gates with your two long hands,
Searching out for clean water, wild one.

Prodigal come forth and rejoice with your voice,
To the heavens.
Chant some song, chant some song,
Prodigal come forth and repent,
Rastafari sins forgiven.

Woy! Desperation has return,
Sodom and Gomorrah, no deh yah, so!
Woy! Desperation has return over, yonder,
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah, so!

(..)

One has returned without one's soul,
And has squandered all his possessions.
Let us cleanse your body now,
From your service to the swine, because:
You've been dead and now to anoint your head,
With wisdom, knowledge and overstanding.
A lesson has been taught unto you my friend,
Time for a feast and rejoicing.
Wild one, you are like the Prodigal Son, yeah,
And if you're the Prodigal Son, my friend,
Then you're the one, you.

Prodigal come forth and rejoice with your voice,
To the heavens.
Chant some song, chant some song,
Prodigal come forth and repent,
Rastafari sins forgiven.

Woy! Desperation has return,
Sodom and Gomorrah, no deh yah, so!
Woy! Desperation has return over, yonder,
Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah, so!

Prodigal has returned to his culture.
Prodigal has returned, give him water.
Prodigal has returned, has returned..
