Babylon done again
fire burn again
dem can't escape there's no where to run again
don't you dis my daughter and my son again, ya hear
let Jah rise
all his enemies scatter
blessed is the man that walketh and exhulteth him in darkness and is standing in the way of sinners... righteousness throughout the nations, let us exhult him to our inner peak.
...a...
Jah is my lifeline
protect me from the plagues and in the nighttime
always make my light shine
be in the right place at the right time
now can tell me self to fight crime
live good and have a nice time
don't block off the pipeline
I'm quite fine
(refrain)
I know someday
Jah is gonna set us free
from all this misery
I knew its true
no matter what they say or do
Jah is gonna see us through
show love not only sometime
tell the youths ah overcome time
make hay while the sun shine
no find ya a captive of the gun time
tell them ah fire burn time
burn the war and burn the gun crime
flattering lips wit dem junk line
tell them fi come listen to da punchline
I know...(refrain)
said if you feel like nuttin will work
still give thanks for the day where you born
keep the faith and live on
under the banner ya bound to yern...
no make no pagan come grease ya palm
after the storm it must be a calm
I know...(refrain)
Jah keep my light shining (shining bright)
seek and search and you will find it (find ya light)
everything takes timing
mountains steep tell em I'm still climbing
don't (haf ah sife or not blime in?)
babylon time unwinding
sell your world for nickel and diming
Still dem with plastic smiling
I know...(refrain)
