Freedom Taking Over |
| Zion, dreaming from an Iron gate |
| Dragon, fire ago burn dem all |
| Jah gonna stop dis revolution |
| The light struck the night, |
| Too indiscipline a battle dem fight |
| Walk and talk they steal, mash dem down we will |
| With the strength of a lion stand still |
| Iya, Iya, war today, oh steal I hear war today-ay-ay |
| The youth dem call upon the elders of which we seek after |
| The Congo Man a chanting, oh dem Congo Man a chant… |
| Oh the youth dem know, but what they cannot see |
| Is how dem use to laugh, and then kick upon we Oh all the youth don’t know, of all those tears we cry |
| Yes oh this Rastaman life, oh of this Rastaman life |
| And you can see the changes |
| From out of the minds and thoughts of our children |
| Here in desolate places |
| Oh we give thanks and praises to our elders |
| For the guidance we are after |
| Oh we give thanks and praises to our elders |
| For unto them we know that |
| No one shall stand alone tonight |
| Shall run, run tonight, shall stand alone tonight |
| Shall run, run tonight |
| Long before this war we use to cry and use to lie in bed |
| With visions of fire running red, |
| And so we call upon my elders instead |
| Don Carlos at the control |
| Wo yeah! |
| Wo yeah! |
| Now (4x) |
| See them come up along the road, oh I can see them |
| Some walk by day and some stalk by night |
| Oh Rastafari shall greet them in the end |
| And so de man run up so long, so long, Oh, Lord! |
| Dem beaten dem down, dem shootin' dem down |
| Oh it’s a poor man’s battle for the youth man stalk |
| And the rich dem a run away |
| Seems like de don’t know dem right from wrong |
| But I see the youth will fight tonight, wow |
| Look how they jump, and shriek and moan |
| For natty coming over |
| Now dis a freedom taking over |
| Oh yeah oh yeah oh, oh yeah now |
