Thank and Praise |
| I say pead my cause, |
| Strive with those that striveth, |
| fight against those that fight against I |
| Emperor Selassi I, |
| the Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah |
| uh |
| CHORUS |
| Live and love your life always, |
| children give Jah thanks and praise |
| Most high he give us length of days |
| silver and gold shall fade |
| So live and love your life always |
| come let us give thanks and praise |
| Most high he give us length of days |
| Zion and the earth all living things |
| and human beings he made |
| Bombs and guns that all they aim at us |
| We’re Ethiopian Africans we’re strangers no |
| So Zion kinda system it so dangerous |
| Honor your mother and your father |
| say ah blessed love |
| And do remember Jah has made you faithful |
| so show more love and don’t be hateful |
| Neglect the most high you’d be so ungrateful eh |
| and that would be disgraceful |
| CHORUS |
| Live and love your life always, |
| come let us give thanks and praise |
| Most high give us length of days |
| the silver and gold shall fade |
| So live and love your life always |
| children give Jah thanks and praise |
| Rastafari give us length of days |
| the silver and gold shall fade |
| So much people pocket full and running over |
| yet they wouldn’t share they rather |
| hold in nah bringin ah lil something when coming over |
| little children even ghetto youths must show love |
| spend out the riches fit up the village |
| bun out the hate and grudge |
| chant Rastafari ah chant |
| Emperor Selassie I is the Conquering Lion |
| Love and righteousness we want |
| CHORUS |
| Live and love your life always, |
| children give Jah thanks and praise |
| Ohh ooo length of days |
| Most high we praise King Selassie I |
| live and love your life always |
| come let us give thanks and praise |
| Most high give us length of days |
| the vanities shall fade whoa yea |
| Love life that’s the reality |
| clean and pure that’s the quality |
| Emperor Selassie I he stand for |
| equal righteousness and morality |
| CHORUS |
| Live and love your life always, |
| come let us give thanks and praise |
| He give us length of days |
| Oh riches shall fade |
| So live and love your life always |
| Sizzla Kalongi keep the fire it ah blaze |
| Rastafari come to liberate the slave |
| Conquering Lion never fail |
| Yo, you live on the street, every night and day |
| You idle and you lurks in the coner when you touch out |
| Kook wrong corner you go… ow |
| Mama gone inna purse you go pluck out |
| Gone wit your father fridge, phone |
| and then you just cut out |
| Why is it you won’t stop from doing those wrongs |
| CHORUS |
| Live and love your life always, |
| children give Jah thanks and praise |
| He give length of days |
| Whoa yea yea |
