"Black Love"
The scent of Manuka honey radiated off of her skin
It married well with the musk of roasted coffee

He sat there dark and eternal,waiting to be sweetened
She sat there raw and unrefined,waiting to be enveloped

He cloaked her
Pouring heat and sensation over her flesh
His hot liquid energy opened up her pores
Seeped into her bloodstream
And stained her heart

She became softer
She spread herself wider
And she dissipated into his abbyss.

"Power and Authority over the Forces of Darkness"
"Power and Authority over the Forces of Darkness"

The Lord Jah Ras Tafari has given InI the power to have infinite command above all dark forces, at least up until the time when
they shall be no more: for they will not inherit eternity.

We shall not sympathise with them in any way, for even on their deathbed their intention is evil against InI.

We will separate ourselves from them in words and deeds and view them as they fall in the pit of hell as they must.

Our heart shall not move when they lay waste in front of us by their callous actions against InI. We will not say, may the Lord Jah
Ras Tafari have mercy on the wicked who seek after my life to destroy it.

Even if we do, the Lord Jah Ras Tafari will not hear us, for He executes judgement and justice. And if we persist in being sorry for
them, we will reap a portion of their reward in hellfire, as the careless Ethiopians.

Let us practise the love that compromises not with iniquity. Neither does it take comradeship with anything associated with sin.

Let our love remain the fire which is the purifier that will purge all corruption. And let everything outlast, like fine gold, as it is and
ever will be in the Kingdom of Zion. Selah

When the wizards and witches are at their craft working with their demonic powers, trying to weaken us with their fear of
darkness, know that the Power of Light is more surpassing and with it, we will remain conquerors forever.

The Light of the Lord Jah Ras Tafari is all InI needs to retain that the forces of darkness cannot stand as a threat but as fuel to the
fire that they have ignited. They are on a suicide mission and should not gain InI attention.  Selah

Let us continue to pray for strength and fortification spiritually and physically as we praise HIM daily and give HIM the glory from
the rising to the setting of the Sun 24/7s. Qedamawi Haile Selassie I is the First and forever and ever. Selah"

A Plea for Forgiveness and Protection
 
A Plea for Forgiveness and Protection

What ears do not hear, hear does not leap
Everyone knows: what we sow, we will reap
Jah Ras Tafari is full of Justice
In HIM, my judgement is automatic
Whatever His Penalty, I will bear
He has made no mistakes for us to share
Still, I pray for His Mercy on my life
That I do not end up with those who strive

Jah, fight against them who war with me
For through my love, they are my enemy
I know I have sinned against You only
Please let me find favour in Your Mercy
Take me away from their iniquity
Purge all my ways, that I become like Thee
Love is all I want to share endlessly
That being my crime, as charged, I am guilty

Only the pure shall dwell in Your Presence
To You, I now come in penitence
Cleanse me and let me regain energy
That I may stay to praise Your Majesty
Let faithfulness be to which I adhere
Of evil workers, I will have no fear
Jah will let their demons devour them
And when You judge them, them, You will condemn

Still, if I have offended anyone
Whether directly or indirectly
I now pray for Your Loving Compassion
Allow us to realise Your Mercy
Let the plaintiff know two wrongs are not right
Bitterness cannot bring about delight
Yes, I thank You, Lord Ras Tafari
Qedamawi Haile Selassie I
Selah

The Firstborn of the Lord Jah Ras Tafari
 
The Firstborn of the Lord Jah Ras Tafari

The firstborn has been around for centries
Must have the firsthand capabilities
We are the firm perpetual teachers
Foundation for all those who come after

No matter the mistakes, which befell us
The Lord Jah will not turn His back on us
Chastise us, He may, with multiple stripes
A remnant will remain His Archetypes

None but His Firstborn could be His Remnants
Those who keep His Command and Ordinance
We have been the ones from an ancient time
We keep the balance, to save humankind

Our ancestors' spirits are alive
Through all InI who carries the vibe
We keep the fire burning with the torch
That all Babylon must evermore scorch

InI will hail all freedom fighters
Both those who past and those who are present
We exalt them for the strength they maintained
The energy is still predominant

It's full of love, mercy, and compassion
It is the exact representation
The Truth of the Father of Creation
Here lie all redemption and salvation

Thoroughly blessed, indeed, is the Firstborn
With knowledge, wisdom, and overstanding
The atypical kens technology
This awareness is also an offspring

Governed by confusion and disorder
It's certainly on a suicide mission
About that, InI will not argue
All that which is wrong must catch afire

The glory belongs to one Conqueror
He is Jah, the Almighty, Creator
He also salutes our ancestors
He recalls them for their valiancy

And all those who shed their blood for freedom
Will resurrect in the lasting kingdom
Only Jah Glory will shine forever
Then, with HIM, all will be one together

Glory to the Highest, Who leads the way
To HIM, all InI must sing and pray
Qedamawi Haile Selassie I
He is First and forever and ever

Qedamawi Haile Selassie I
He is Ras Tafari and I and I
Qedamawi Haile Selassie I
He is First and foriver and iver
Selah

Love's Perfection
 
Love's Perfection

Love is love not of material things
It is that grand untouchable feeling
We know it is real, for it burns within
It is the fire none can extinguish

When two hearts beat as one, nought stops, those flames
They are the sparks of love which know no blames
My lover and I are one together
We serve the True and Living Creator

We burn the fire and scorch Babylon
We do not cater for misdirection
The teachings of intangibility
That mimics the gist of reality

Love is love, and it can be nothing else
All we may do, it will remain itself
Jah is that love, Who conquers every time
We stand upright from all their evil crime

My lover and I, we will take a flight
Even a ride that will be out of sight
The perfection of love will guide us through
There we will be and see nothing untrue

Love is indeed the perfection of life
We won't recognise love in war and strife
In such situations, love is distant
When it comes to concord, love is instant

Ras (T. K. U. Eitiko) Tafari
