In this here World wide struggle
I man say "Power to the People"
Yes, Alright!!!
Love Mamma Africa, Where me come from
Feet Kinda hurt cause I've been trodding so long
Old Slavery days, well they are far from gone
Music is my Healing, My Salvation
Out in the streets and we've ben crying so long
Love JAH and live or else you must gone wrong
These are the days of Babylon Confusion
We need Roots and Culture to break Illusion
Sudden Destruction across the nation
Through crumbling morality
We end up in Starvation
I got a love here. No matter how small
No matter where we're from we still be standing Tall
Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu we cry
Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu!!
In this here World wide struggle
I man say "Power to the People"
Yes, Alright!!!
Just rest my head another day gone by
Don't you forget it's a wonderful life
No money in my pocket but my soul full of vibes
Guess who a forward in the dancehall tonight
First comes pride then there comes shame
Humble yourself we made from dirt and clay
So called leaders lead the world this way
And now all them do is make the youths gone astray
Sudden Destruction across the nation
Through crumbling morality
We end up in Starvation
I got a love here. No matter how small
No matter where we're from we still be standing Tall
Im from Jamaica, Trodding to Ethiopia
Burn down the obstacles as INI step over
And still we forward, sweet life forever
Hail Rastafari, He will fail you NEVER!!
2) Rastaman Experience
Jah Live and rule and reign yes, Zion Awake
This is a piece about the Rastaman Experience
As I walk the streets of pain, the song remains the same
Hatred decrease as Rastafari Love increase and still some eyes are filled with pain
Jah is Sunshine after the rain
Endless Killing Endless Struggling, INI a chant now that my heart s willing
To spread JAH love at every stage show; To spread JAH music everywhere we go
What is the message? What can you share?
INI the children don't have to suffer 'round here
Don't keep the Youths them locked in Limbo
You know that Rasta music liberate your soul.
Well, this is a piece about the Rastaman Experience
As I walk the streets of pain, the song remains the same
This aint no thesis but the truth it shall release out on the street and down the lane
Valleys and the Plains
So wont you stop now from extinguishing the peace or else you surely fade away
Rasta still remain, Rasta still remain
Mothers of creation that's my daughters and my sisters
Glad that you are free, We need your royalty
We don't need no tragedy; and no more tears
Is only JAH love it will erase your fears
Remember all the children that you sure will need to teach
And all the lost sisters who been living on the streets
Put consciousness above and we'll be gentle like a dove
Keep us now as strong and then you fill us with your love, Your Love!
Endless Killing Endless Struggling, INI a chant now that my heart is willing
To spread JAH love at every stage show; To spread JAH music everywhere we go
What is the message? What can you share?
INI the children don't have to suffer 'round here
Don't keep the Youths them locked in Limbo
You know that Rasta music liberate your soul.
