Well, it is a steep mountain to climb |
|
And it is a deep river to cross |
|
The road is rocky and rough |
|
So I can't afford for my soul to lost |
|
And I cannot take this no longer |
|
And I cannot bear this no more |
|
Tired to see my sisters and brothers |
|
Convicted and ignored |
|
So I got to fetch the righteous key |
|
And I got to open sesame |
|
And I got to set the captive free |
|
And I got to hail His majesty |
|
And I got to emancipate myself from mental slavery |
|
Oh, oh, he bingi man will never get weary |
|
The rastaman will never grow old |
|
That's why the half has never been told |
|
But the bingi man come fi clean up dem soul |
|
The bingi man will never get weary |
|
The rastaman will have his reward |
|
But Jah, Jah bless I with the strength |
|
And the comfort of His love |
|
So long the liar bring this out |
|
And you no read between the lines |
|
Then oonu woulda see what the rastaman find |
|
The truth and the love that is so divine |
|
Unity, strength and we have fi combine |
|
This is a collective mission everyone have to join |
|
Any means necessary a method we have to find |
|
To stop all the war, poverty and crime |
|
Politics and religion we have fi lef that behind |
|
Can't go a Zion with no carnal mind |
|
Look how we a warn dem time after time |
|
Be your brother's keeper and you sister same time |
|
Remember that you mother and you father is divine |
|
To righteousness you must always incline, oonu see Jah sign |
