Not By Bread Alone

I am an African

With a white skin and the black blood

I man nah turn back I say

I man nah turn back

I man nah turn back I say

Hear what the Rastaman says

Rastaman says: preserve your life

Rastaman says: correct your old sight

Rastaman says: we shall not live by bread alone

But by the words that proceeded from my father

You've got to know yourself

And I say nothing else

Now you listen to the voice

Pleasing people

Always talking to you inside

Rastaman say: seek truth and right

But first you'll know what that is all about

Rastaman warns: if you think then you sure exist

So in the hard days you've got to

Resist, like a Lion

And you never let them fool you

With desires

Now you keep the hot fire

You remember where we all belong

I-thiopia come and sings right now

Cause we all came from I-thiopia

And we've got the same history

Cause we are all part of the

Motherland

Africa we'll live for-I-ever more

I am an African

We are all Africans

I'm an Africans

Can't you see?

With a white skin

And I say with the black blood
