| Jahhhh!
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Mankind mankind open your eyes and face up to reality
|
| Mankind mankind open your eyes and face up to reality
|
| (Verse 1)
|
| Every time I rise up One thing I keep on seeing
|
| Brothers are fighting against brothers
|
| Sisters are fighting against sisters
|
| About skin color, religion, nationality
|
| Which I man can’t understand.
|
| No!
|
| When I open my third eye and face up to what we call reality
|
| I know there is one God, Jah!
|
| His eternal majesty
|
| He sent Moses, Elijah, Jesus Christ
|
| But still we’re acting like we’re blind
|
| We’re acting like we’re deaf
|
| Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohhh!
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Mankind mankind open your eyes and face up to reality
|
| Mankind mankind open your eyes and face up to reality
|
