Generations Will Rize
You won't see us on your TV
You won't read it in the news feed
But, the time it come
Change keeps beating like a drum
'Cause the people have the power
They keep waking by the hour
And the youth them see
So, they're breaking free from your mental slavery
Generations will Rize
Governments, they will fall
We're the only ones who will carry us through it all
If the words they are clear and the actions are strong
Oh, my people, we can't go wrong
So, hold on (yeah, yeah)
Hold on (yeah, yeah)
Hold on (yeah, yeah)
Hold on (yeah, ee-yeah, eh-eh)
Staring down their lie of democracy
Will you fight on your feet or live pon your knees? (eh)
This is not the way that life's supposed to be
I'm callin', callin' yeah
These generations are making that change
They've learnt your system now they're gonna rage (oh)
Better take care and Babylon you be aware
This a warnin', warnin' yeah
Generations will Rize
Governments, they will fall
We're the only ones who will carry us through it all
If the words they are clear and the actions are strong
Oh, my people, we can't go wrong
So, hold on
Hear me Natty Dread (yeah, yeah)

Skibbly beng, yeah (yeah, yeah)

Just keep on holding on (yeah, ee-yeah, eh-eh)
It's just a drop inna di ocean of revolution
Every ripple felt by the younger generation
Just Rize and take your stand where you belong
'Cause it's awakening, replacing dem false religions
Truths are spread like wild fyah in di streets
Anything less than equal rights get delete
'Cause higher consciousness we ah seek
Open up your heart and let that inner voice speak (yeah, yeah)
In the midst of these crazy times we're gonna find our place (right away)
If we open up our hearts and let love lead the way (listen n-n-now)
To the world that we wanna see
We nah have no place for dem capitalism and dem economy
It's up to we, so open up your heart and let love lead the way again
Generations will Rize (rise yeah)
Governments, they will fall
We're the only ones who will carry us through it all
(Freedom fighters)
If the words they are clear (yeah) and the actions are strong
Oh, my people (hear me now), we can't go wrong
So, hold on (yeah, yeah)
