Lyrics Fire on the Mountain - Marlon Asher , Roots of Creation , Stephen Marley

Mr. Marley natural dread
Roots of Creation, hey

Long distance runner, what you standing there for?
Get up, get out, get out of the door
You're playing cold music on the barroom floor
Drowned in your laughter and you're dead to the core
There's a dragon with matches and he's loose on the town
Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down

I said fire, fire on the mountain
Fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain

Almost ablaze, still you don't feel the heat
It takes all you got just to stay on the beat
You say it's a living, an' we all gotta eat, yeah
You're here all alone, and there's no one to compete
If mercy's a business, well I wish it for you
It's more than just ash when your dreams come true

I said fire, fire on the mountain
Fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain

Long distance runner, what you holding out for
Caught in slow motion in a dash for the door
The flame from your stage has now spread to the floor
You gave all you had, why you wanna give more?
The more that you give, it's the more it will take
To the thin line beyond, which you really can't fake

I said fire, fire on the mountain
Fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain
I said fire, fire on the mountain
Yeah!

An' it's ya fire on the mountain, can't control
What dis is means to man
Oh yeah
Hear me now
No fire from the mountain come from the sound
Of the lightning front and we can jump
And a great now fallen place get up
And the moon she ablaze like a melting pot
Dey put out they nan, they bring in the can
I see Mario all american chat
Now search them bigger than the death star, man
Bonne nuit, I'll follow to the mountain top
Roots of creation

Gotta bring the firepower man, in town
Now now
Bonnie's a little missed on each other 'pon the start
Fire with a hill above the mountain town
All is a shaman, you can't look out
Here is a fire man, drunk on twitter, non
I am the fire in the place from on the top anon
Hey mister Asher, man, gonna try and pull an hour long
Whip the water with your care controller log
Hey mister Asher tell me what's goin' on
Fire in the rhythm 'pon the mountain come
Run
