Family Affair

We don't have nothing
Shabba
Unite!
White people, this is a family affair
For all who care about their families out there

(It's a family affair)
Live by di love, live by di love

(It's a family affair)
Stop shed blood
(It's a family affair)
Respect di blood, respect di blood
(It's a family affair)
Stop the shedding of di blood

Move over there, put di onion on di ear
If you support this family affair
Clap di hands dem loud and clear
So everyone in this world, they can hear
A piece of family is deeded out by blood
Family affair is governed by love, go
No corruption, nature time better can't forbid ya
Will it end top of di love?
Love is tender, complete from above
Concrete heart, do not toil alone

If I love, and you love
Then we make our children, they shall love
Family affair, do you care?
For this operation that is out there

I'm on there, and that is I swear
I backswing this operation out there

(It's a family affair)
You got to take time out to care
(It's a family affair)
It's not too big for to share
(It's a family affair)
If you don't care, then no one else will care
(It's a family affair)
Hold up, people, listen

Move over there, put di onion on di ear
If you support this family affair
Clap di hands dem loud and clear
So everyone in this world, they can hear
Erase the sin, stop the killing out there
It's time for me to come deliver quick fear
Peace and loving are the atmosphere
Fussing and fighting move us nowhere

Watch this!
See it's a family affair, everyone must prepare
Right another week, but you come with prepare
You teach all of dem, must we learn and care?
And make all of dem come love and dare
One love and more than that
Two love and more than that
Three love and more than
Because mi love mi brother God and mi lose in him his son

(It's a family affair)
Trouble
(It's a family affair)
Have mercy
(It's a family affair)

Trouble, trouble

You move whatever you believe in, love

It's coming at ya
You move whatever you believe in, love

It's coming at ya
I believe in love, I believe in love

About to say it enough
I believe in love, I believe in love

(Shabba, Shabba!)
Tell di world, say

At ya! Di sun is coming at ya
Don't let di evil or di sin come scratch ya
At ya! Di sun is coming at ya
Now mi very upstage, say I'm sayin' something catch ya
Me for you and you for me
And let's stay together as one family
'Til I let peace and love and harmony
Let's stay together inna one unity

At ya! Di sun is coming at ya
Smooth like di music coming to get ya
At ya! Di sun is coming at ya
Tell a me to keep poison tongues there fi pet ya

(It's a family affair)
You must care
(It's a family affair)
I care, do you care?
(It's a family affair)
If you care, clap your hands so loud and clear
(It's a family affair)

Family affair is governed by love
A piece of family is deeded out by blood
I believe in love, I believe in love
You must live by di love
Why do we sweat di blood?
