Lyrics
Revelation, reveals the truth, Revelation
It takes a revolution to make a solution
Too much confusion, so much frustration
I don't want to live in the park
Can't trust no shadows after dark
So my friend I wish that you could see
Like a bird in the tree, the prisoners must be free
Never make a politician grant you a favour
They will always want to control you forever
So if a fire make it burn
And if a blood make it run
Rasta there up on top, can't you see
So you can't predict the flop
We got lightning, thunder, brimstone and fire
Lightning, thunder, brimstone and fire
Kill, cramp and paralyse all weak at conception
Wipe them out of creation
Let l'es is l'es in l'es is black
In l'es is red in l'es is dread
Let rightousness cover the earth
Like the water cover the sea
Lightning, thunder, brimstone and fire
Lightning, thunder, brimstone and fire
Writer(s): Bob Marley
