[Verse 2: Alborosie]

The road to zion rocky

But we still a walk

We move outta Babylon, dem still a talk

We keep the fyah burning

And dem shut it off so

Back it off now, Judgement time now

Emperor Selassie I rule the earth

I and I pray from birth

No handcuff 'pon me wrist, no blood 'pon mi shirt

Babylon mi heart still a hurt

[Chorus: Alborosie]

So mi praise - King Selassie!

And endorse di ghetto youth

Dem mek dem well bright - Africa shall rise!
