[Intro: Buju Banton]

[Verse 1: Buju Banton & DJ Khaled]
Right through the gates of hell
Where that wretched soul that live a life of evil, out of control
Tormented soul, tormented soul, go away
Go away, go away from me
Take them away, Father, take them away, oooi
Right through the gates of Hell
With powers over darkness and light
Hypocrites and jezebels dance to the Devil’s delight
They made a pact, they made a pact, ooh
Bloody sacrifice
How they kill, name and torture and use the name of Christ
(Another one) I turn them away

[Chorus: 070 Shake]
These blessings, these blessings, two years stressin’
Said I wouldn’t make it, I was being tested
My blessings, my blessings
I thought I wouldn’t make it, but I was being tested
My blessings, these blessings, these blessings
Gotta protect (Gotta protect)
My blessings, my blessings
Gotta protect (Gotta protect)
My blessings, my blessings
Blessings, my

[Verse 2: Sizzla]
Ah mi seh light it up, smoke up di herb
High up, sailin’ like a bird
Like a fire, burn it ah burn, burn it ah burn
Bless up, step up, ah full military
Seh dem ah wish you bad, buh dat nuh necessary
Every day you seh yuh prayer, nothing ordinary
Bless and protected from the holy sanctuary
Evil people all they want to see you dead and bury
Have an evil life, we seh ah di almighty bless we
And they hate you for the truth
Watch yuh enemies
Watch yuh enemies
[Chorus: 070 Shake]
These blessings, these blessings, two years stressin’
Said I wouldn’t make it, I was being tested
My blessings, my blessings
I thought I wouldn’t make it, but I was being tested
My blessings, these blessings, these blessings
Gotta protect (Gotta protect)
My blessings, my blessings
Gotta protect (Gotta protect)
My blessings, my blessings
Blessings, my
