lyrics

Better give them what they want
Better give them what they need
Some reality
Better give them what they want
Better give them what they need
Some reality

With Jah I know
I’m never lonely, no no
I hold my head up high
In the streets of babylon

Peace and love and prosperity
The youths search out, tell me
Where can it be ?
Still a lot of crime
All around me
Dem havin gwaan far
With them technology
Seh we got to wise up now
For this too much diversion
Sweep cross di nation
Still too much segregation
Me see the youths them
In starvation
Government man tell me
What’s your plan
For without Jah
We are done yeah

With Jah I know
I’m never lonely, no no
I hold my head up high
In the streets of babylon

Righteousness sah
Consciousness sah
Come together as one
Righteousness sah
Consciousness yeah
Come together as one
Speak the truth
We nah tell no lie
Jah Jah teach us yeah
Jah Jah bless us so
To spread our wings and fly
Jah Jah teach us yeah
Jah Jah bless us so
To spread our wings and fly
To reach the higher heights
It’s a destiny
For you and me

With Jah I know
I’m never lonely, no no
I hold my head up high
In the streets of babylon

Peace and love and prosperity
The youths search out, tell me
Where can it be ?
Still a lot of crime
All around me
Dem havin gwaan far
With them technology
Seh we got to wise up now
For this too much diversion
Sweep cross di nation
Still too much segregation
Me see the youths them
In starvation
Government man tell me
What’s your plan
For without Jah
We are done yeah
