Mike Love
Commercialized
[Chorus]
Fashion dread
You wear real contradiction upon your head
You take something sacred and turn it into joke
But when you speak of love you almost choke
Impostor
Swear your red gold and green make you a true Rasta
True love is more important than the clothes you wear
Or the way you choose to wear your hair

[Verse 1]
Oh I awoke
With the seeds of truth and right planted in my heart
And the motivation to build a brand new ark
And the strength to do my part to hold it steady
Check my reflection
Took some time for spiritual meditation
Tried to put a comb through my hair
But it wouldn't run
And in that moment I knew I was ready

'Cause the baldhead man never read up on his true history
He just go 'long with someone and follow with all of his friends
But to dem a Rastafari is a big mystery
A passing trend
But Jah no end
[Chorus]
Fashion dread
You wear real contradiction upon your head
You take something sacred and turn it into joke
But when you speak of love you almost choke
Impostor
[?] your green bowl
True Rasta
True love is more important than the clothes you wear
Or the way you choose to wear your hair

[Verse 2]
Rasta youth
Don't get caught up in vanity
Seek the truth
Jump off the system
Jah be your parachute
Never be no prostitute, sellout for money
Check the scripture
All them [?] don't got to love every creature
Mankind all a society security numbers
So Rasta know your culture and start [?]

'Cause the marks seem to be written on every dollar bill
Everything that anyone sells or buys
'Cause you're buying the blood and
You're buying the hype and
You're buying in
To the commercialized
Commercialized
[Verse 3]
Oh my brothers and sisters
I'm crying how much longer
Till we're free
From this vanity
Oh why can't you see
All these chains of oppression
Keep our hearts from beating as one
Oh please
Wake up Jah children
And live once again
For the time has come
To stop these brainwashers
Before they complete Armageddon
But the moment of your judgement shall arise
And although you have plenty
He'll see if you're empty inside

[Chorus]
Fashion dread
You wear real contradiction upon your head
You take something sacred and turn it into joke
But when you speak of love you almost choke
Impostor
[?] your green bowl
True Rasta
True love is more important than the clothes you wear
Or the way you choose to wear your hair
[Bridge]
Said I man only want to deal positive vibes in these crucial times
[?]

He, he who feels
Feels no [?]
She, she who feels
Feels no [?]

He who feels it knows it Lord
She who feels it knows it Lord
And Rasta man it feel it Lord
Rasta man it feel it Lord
