And make sure unnu firm ina di Armadeggeon

So when you son become a man

'Cause knowledge ah the key and it will set the people free

And Haile I philosophy

Unno watch dey segregation and social impurity

The race is not just for the swift

But those who can endure

Make sure you have a steady footing in ah Zion door

And keep dem thoughts dem pure

Jah love is for the poor

But some likkkle bwoy ah burst gun dem mooma can't afford

If Jah seh blood fi run

Let Jah will be done

The heaven and the earth will pass away before him

Word no come

But if I rise without a cause

There will be no reward

For you to enter Zion gates because you are a fraud

For the youths in the struggle

Ooh, yeah

Fighting guerrilla warfare

If one from every nation can come live up an ah par

So, don't care who you are

There's a brighter morning star

It's shining, wake the town, and tell the people near and far

You seek and you will search

With science and research

The flesh, it is the temple and the temple is the church

Haile Selassie say fi work

So how some man ah lurks

Dem fix upon them cornerside like rubbish heap and dirt

Respect for every man

No care dey race, no care dey color, nor di religion
