Your rating:

(feat. Stephen Marley)




[Chorus: Stephen Marley]

From Jungle to Rema

From Tivoli to Matthews Lane

From Waterhouse to Drewsland

From Baneland to Delacre



[Verse 1: Damian Marley]

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 pass 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



[Chorus:]

For the youths in the struggle

Fighting Guerilla warfare

Somalia to Ethiopia

From Egypt to Zimbabwe



[Verse 2:]

Haile Selassie 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 Selassie say fi work so how some man ah lurks

Dem fix upon the cornerside like rubbish heap and dirt

Haile Selassie 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



[Chorus:]

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
