Lyrics:

Africa must be free
South Africa, blood, fire, Rastafari, Jah

Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children
Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children

The time has come when we all should sing unto Jah
Day after day the children of Zion tryin' to reach up to you
But they're stopping us with their guns and brutality (Oh, Lord!)

Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children
Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children

Let's sing praises unto the most high Jah Rastafari
I and I, I Jah Rastafari, I and I, I Jah Rastafari
Wo-wo-wo, yes-yes-yes-yes (Come on now, man)


Can't ever be free in our own land
Can't ever be free in our own land
The wicked, dem turn it into battle ground
Can't ever be free in our own land
Can't ever be free in our own land
The wicked, dem turn it into battle ground

Can't even smoke our little i-ley
Can't even smoke our little i-ley

Let's sing praises unto Jah
I and I, I Jah Rastafari, I and I, I Jah Rastafari
Wo-wo-wo, yes-yes-yes-yes (Come on now, man)

Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children
Forward Jah Jah-Jah Jah children

Let's sing praises unto the most high Jah Rastafari
I and I, I Jah Rastafari, I and I, I Jah Rastafari
Wo-wo-wo, yes-yes-yeah (Come on now, man)

I never know, never know (Oh)
I send forward Jah Jah children
