Uptown Rebel

Fried it in the morning

Stewed it for lunch, yeah

Roasted it for dinner

And when I wouldn't eat it they said I was a sinner

First day I come home and say 'Rastafari'

You would a-think it was a funeral, yeah

The way my people start to cry

The next day I'll be ok, some ital cooking

Everyone was looking, yeah

They don't like my style but they love the seasoning

Uptown rebel, fight for a cause

It's a sad, sad, sad, sad story, they say

A decent man like him hasn't had a chance in seven years

Two thousand five hundred and fifty five days

Uptown rebel, fight for a cause

They say, I was born in a good family

But when I check the facts

It's just one life for you and me
