Lyrics
Yeah man, Rastafari live and reign in the heart of all flesh
Yeah man, Kalonji a show dem it, enuh
Aye
Well declare it's action time
So watch and know we eyes bright like the sun, we a shine
Aye, just be loving and kind
Yo
The poor people dem haffi rise and face dem future
Earth balance and neutral
We the people dem must rise and face our future
Burn the fire as usual
We the people dem must rise and face our future
Earth balance and neutral
Poor people haffi rise and face dem future
Yo, aye, wha' me say?
Dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the pagan attack we
Still can't stop we, can't distract we
Dem haffi come stand up and watch we
Yo, dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the heathen attack we
Still can't stop we, can't distract we
Aye, aye, aye
Another day to go
Survival is the key, the only way I know
Out a quickening my feet, no time to move slow
The time is going as the wind a blow
Wha' me say? Allow the meditation to flow
When before they realize their evil foes
Righteousness, this I come to show
Black people stay high, goodness to afford
So much destruction in the world
Fast subtraction is from the poor
We need to come together in love much more
One color, black people, you're pure
Can't lock you out, can't close the door
Be on the lookout, never give up, never know
We the people must rise and take our future
Earth balance and neutral
We the people haffi rise and face our future
Burn up the fire as usual
Black people haffi rise, conquer the future
Earth balance and neutral
Black people haffi rise and tell dem black culture
Bigger judgement, aye
Repatriation, it's a must
We can do it, they won't do it for us
This a the time, protect the people from the dirt
Free from pollution so don't get corrupt
Remember say, our nation slavery
Inna the slave trade dem did come and trade we
Because of my color they return and hate me
I give thanks for life, Almighty create me
Poor people haffi rise, face all the future
Earth balance and neutral
Poor people haffi rise, conquer the future
Burn the fire as usual
Babylon, we haffi rise, take our future
Babylon, watch dem yah youth yah
We haffi rise, haffi rise
Haffi rise, black people haffi rise
Aye, dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the pagan attack we
Still can't stop we, can't distract we
Dem a pick up, stand up and watch we
Yo, dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the pagan attack we
Still can't stop we, can't come trap we
Hail Emperor Selassie I and true
Go burn off, friend up who dem a friend up
And go burn off, blend up with who dem a blend up
Thanks and praises dem a go youth a send up
Repatriation, the youth a defend up
Di Selassie I 'round your head and a bend up
Inna Ethiopia mi banner haffi hang up
Tell the pagan, say don't come pretend
As a Rastafari alone
Aye, we the people haffi rise, face all the future
Earth balance and neutral
Poor people haffi rise, face all the future
Just burn the fire as usual
Black people haffi rise, face all the future
Earth balance and neutral
The people haffi rise and conquer the future
Tell dem the feeling mutual
Yo, dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the pagan attack we
Dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Dem haffi come stand up and watch we
Dem still can't stop we, can't distract we
Fire weh we deh burn, no make the pagan attack we
