people without knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots (Marcus Garvey)
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey (rep.)
 [bad word] :
Can't leave out JAH Roots - can't leave out JAH Roots
Coulda never leave out JAH Fire - JAH Fire
JAH seh we must speak the [bad word] - JAH seh we must speak the [bad word] For more consciousness is required - required

(Verse 1):
JAH seh He made man to be one
To live His live on creation
So why can't mankind overstand
And know what's right from what is wrong
 [bad word] 
(Verse 2):
We need more orientation
Some seek the ways of religion
But [bad word] and regulations
Often brings up more confusion
 [bad word] 
(Verse 3):
So realize it's not too late
To turn away from war and hate
Learn to love and live up straight
for RASTAFARI is the defender of the faith
 [bad word] 
(Verse 4):
Some a do a lot of talking
And no good which part dem walking
bare cheating and a barking
But Rasta tell dem we no inna no skylarking - so
Give us Sellassie I teachings
We no want no more of diabolocal preachings
Up to higher heights Rastafari reaching
And all who no lost I'm beseeching
 [bad word] 
(Verse 5):
Well it no really mek sense, you know
You can't even spare dem a five pence, you know
But you just a drive past and a wave outta your benz, you know
Better you go pack your things and move away from hence, you know
Well dem think seh dem cool
Waan' leave out JAH and tek Rasta fi fool
But Rasta pass him exams at Selassie I school 
so we done know seh [bad word] Chorus
