From Jungle to Rema From Tivoli to Matthews Lane From Waterhouse to Drewsland From Baneland to Delacre A youth and youth fi have a plan and have some ambition And make sure unnu firm ina di Armageddon So when you son become a man, him know just where you stand Him know him poopa set it so him follow tradition If Marcus Garvey say fi read then why some man ah pree Cause knowledge ah the key and it wll set the people free And Haile I philosophy is African unity 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 some gun dem mooma can't afford If Jah say blood fi run let Jah will be done The heaven and the earth will pa** away before him word no come But if 'I'm 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 Fighting Guerilla warfare Somalia to Ethiopia From Egypt to Zimbabwe Haile Sela**ie say ah war if colour is a scar 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 with di 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 Sela**ie say fi work so how some man ah lurks Dem fix upon the cornerside like rubbish heap and dirt Haile Sela**ie say ah one respect for every man No care dey race, no care dey colour nor di religion So make a decision fi bun di division Cause each and every rasta youth to trot pon di mission From Portmore to Kingston From Kingston to Montego Bay From Seaview to Riverton Come and hundred proclaim From Jungle to Rema From Tivoli to Matthews Lane From Southside to Telaville From Iraq to USA From Waterhouse to Drewsland Baneland to Delacre Portmore, kingston to boom
