Well, I say bless the man that reveal all the truth you know 
Unto this generation 
Those with them eye and has never over-stand

Oh children, Babylon build them cities 
And break their own laws 
So long you've been amongst them 
Yet they didn't teach you that the fools get caught 
So take us to the place where 
Justice embedded in our heart, truly ours 
Etiopia he was born there 
Emperor Selassie I they all fail to adore

Oh judgement 
We the people must be true to ourself 
Stoop to brutality, you perish and melt 
Aware them have fi hide 
What make them don't want fi help ? 
The children going idly having no strength 
Our duty is to teach 
So you make it frequent 
You no beat upon your shoulders 
Here come the judgement 
Can not be going that way 
Killing yourself, what's the sense ? 
Them young, tell them get the teaching from the high sense

Oh children, Babylon build them cities 
And break their own laws 
So long you've been amongst them 
Yet they didn't teach you that the fools get caught 
So take us to the place where 
Justice embedded in our heart, truly ours 
Etiopia he was born there 
Emperor Selassie I they all fail to adore

Firing guns becomes disobedient 
They know not from whence they came, so they rebel against 
Babylon set it so, building them bridges and fence 
That they may support them so-called government 
Them instigate the downfall of Jah righteous children 
Remind them that slavery was not an accident 
In return they kill my brothers and my parents 
Repatriation, bless how give them all the strength 
Africa we deh come, so me hear the high sense 
Mother Nature made us in the natural essence 
Emperor Selassie I him rule all events 
We don't care if them intelligence 
Oh now

Oh children, Babylon build them cities 
And break their own laws 
So long you've been amongst them 
Yet they didn't teach you that the fools get caught 
So take us to the place where 
Justice embedded in our heart, truly ours 
Etiopia he was born there 
Emperor Selassie I they all fail to adore

I and I have the foundation of the earth 
Never been thirst 
Black people 
Now I tell you to stand 
While you cease to be 
And let them come and dish your dirt 
Oh no they have lost their way 
Because their desire was for fame and greed 
I tell you now all tongue haffi go tell 
Oh yes, all wicked man down on their knees 
But now

Oh children, Babylon build them cities 
And break their own laws 
So long you've been amongst them 
Yet they didn't teach you that the fools get caught 
So take us to the place where 
Justice embedded in our heart, truly ours 
Etiopia he was born there 
Emperor Selassie I they all fail to adore

Oh judgement 
We the people must be true to ourself 
Stoop to brutality, you perish and melt 
Aware them have fi hide 
What make them don't want fi help ? 
The children going idly having no strength 
Our duty is to teach 
So you make it frequent 
You no beat upon your shoulders 
Here come the judgement 
Can not be going that way 
Killing yourself, what's the sense ?
Them young, tell them get the teaching from the high sense

Oh children, Babylon build them cities 
And break their own laws 
So long you've been amongst them 
Yet they didn't teach you that the fools get caught 
So take us to the place where 
Justice embedded in our heart, truly ours 
Etiopia he was born there 
Emperor Selassie I they all fail to adore
