Power to the People (Live)

In this here World wide struggle
I man say "Power to the People"
Yes, Alright!!!

Love Mamma Africa, Where me come from
Feet Kinda hurt cause I've been trodding so long
Old Slavery days, well they are far from gone
Music is my Healing, My Salvation

Out in the streets and we've ben crying so long
Love JAH and live or else you must gone wrong
These are the days of Babylon Confusion
We need Roots and Culture to break Illusion

Sudden Destruction across the nation
Through crumbling morality
We end up in Starvation
I got a love here. No matter how small
No matter where we're from we still be standing Tall

Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu we cry
Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu!!

In this here World wide struggle
I man say "Power to the People"
Yes, Alright!!!

Just rest my head another day gone by
Don't you forget it's a wonderful life
No money in my pocket but my soul full of vibes

Guess who a forward in the dancehall tonight
First comes pride then there comes shame
Humble yourself we made from dirt and clay
So called leaders lead the world this way
And now all them do is make the youths gone astray

Sudden Destruction across the nation
Through crumbling morality
We end up in Starvation
I got a love here. No matter how small
No matter where we're from we still be standing Tall

Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu we cry
Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu!!

In this here World wide struggle
I man say "Power to the People"
Yes, Alright!!!

Sudden Destruction across the nation
Through crumbling morality
We end up in Starvation
I got a love here. No matter how small
No matter where we're from we still be standing Tall

Im from Jamaica, Trodding to Ethiopia
Burn down the obstacles as INI step over
And still we forward, sweet life forever
Hail Rastafari, He will fail you NEVER!!

Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu we cry
Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu!!

Just rest my head another day gone by
Don't you forget it's a wonderful life
No money in my pocket but my soul full of vibes

Standing tall, Amandla Awethu, Amandla Awethu
