Maxi Priest Bridge You Burn Lyrics

Check it!
Don't wreck it!
Set it!

I'm honorable
Anybody violate you know we nah go ramp
Fi try dem case
Deh pon a level
Seh nuh come to me wid foolishness
Because me nuh hav no time fi waste
Cah man a rebel
Ever stand up for mi people dem
Because it is my rightful place

Live by these guidelines
Throughout my lifetime

And no matter where the wind blows
We all should live by the code

Now when you're on top
Reaping from that crop
Thinking you're untouchable
But when it all stops,
Who gon' be your rock,
When everything's dysfunctional?
Because we never see it coming
Whenever things are good and running
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn

See man ah rebel
You should a know I'm 'bout the truth
And certain things I say you might not like
Cah some a devil
I see the evil that they do
And they know that they just ain't right
Ah just the blessin'
Strictly love ina mi heart
Nuh bother think that you can block my light

Live by these guidelines Throughout my lifetime

And no matter where the wind blows
We all should live by the code

Now when you're on top
Reaping from that crop
Thinking you're untouchable
But when it all stops,
Who gon' be your rock,
When everything's dysfunctional?
Because we never see it coming
Whenever things are good and running
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn

You don't see them coming, yeah
Watch the tables turn, y'all
And you'll be running, yeah
Just watch it burn

Now when you're on top
Reaping from that crop
Thinking you're untouchable
But when it all stops,
Who gon' be your rock,
When everything's dysfunctional?
Because we never see it coming
Whenever things are good and running
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn

(I said)
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn
(Yeah)
That's how it goes
Careful of the bridge you burn
