Yeah man! well I say...blessed are those who trust in him
Emperor Haile Selassie is the almighty,no?
Den again--him tell mih,nah low
Nyabinghi chanting all,one,two...ey! see Kolanji dey

Verse 1

When there's no pain,in the absence of your culture be strong,ow
True people remain,mih youths,never forget where yuh come from,woo,woo
The system make,the system break the heart of those not knowing
where they belong
The feelings ache,the whole vibes change
Give it ah meditation

With yuh black inheritance be satisfied

The reason for life is to love and share,give thanks & praise
We love to stand with might,the people words are always

And we will see our face,at the very place
Black people frame like Gibraltar Rock
