(verse 1)
enemies of Jah them come to I and I
try to take away my pride
his majesty was there and di angels of Jah
we were all standing there in Uppsala
informer and police dem rush I and I
and try to sabotage mi chanting
but Uppsala reggae raise di wicked man shall fall
cah victory shall bloom above them all
(chorus)

(verse 2)
enemies of Jah dem lock up my teacha
and couldnt even try to explain himself
dem carry him dung a station
abusing dem powa
it all happen dung in Uppsala
di flash light on di ??

some police dem a move like dem a terrorist
(chorus)
