Yes, King Selassie I
Yeah

A man with a fearful eye is a man of knowledge
But a fool ignore wisdom likewise instruction

Judgment inna the earth
Tell dem fi splurt
The Selassie I, all gone under dirt
Wha' me say?
Tell dem say leave Babylon
Bingi man, me say fi leave Babylon
Israel, me say fi leave Babylon and come
A Bobo man a tell dem say me say fi leave Babylon
Rasta man say fi leave Babylon
Orthodox, me say fi leave
Leave out of Babylon fast and come
So wha' me say?
Whoa
A long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
And if a bomb me haffi fling, if a shoot me haffi shoot
Dem treat all mi old ancestors like brute
And still a gwan like dem waan enslave the youth
Cut out the healing of the illness and pluck it out by the root
Give dem the coke fi smoke, fi eat the forbidden fruit
And turn dem inna gay likewise prostitute
Me say Selassie I and a for dem a dispute
Me seek and me find Selassie I is the truth
The branch and the lemon, the stem and the root
Equal rights and justice wha' me come fi revolute
Judgment and justice, Jah shall execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Me tell dem leave Babylon
Rasta man, me say fi leave Babylon
Orthodox, me say fi leave Babylon and come
A Bingi man a tell dem say me say fi leave Babylon

And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Yes!
Say, get ready revolutionary troop
Yes, we haffi fight and defend the truth
If we haffi jump out of plane or inna parachute
We olda ancestors nuff dem execute
Just because dem all waan fi conceal the truth
What was hidden from the old, it a reveal to the youth
A warn Mandela say fi secure the youth
Watch out fi the clerk and watch out fi the boot
Jah say, man, you a go roll just like a breadfruit
Natural is the mystic and me nah go dilute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Me tell dem leave Babylon

A long time me a watch dem like a crab inna bag
We island, we gold a weh the whole of dem rob
We silver and we diamond, the whole of dem rob
Dem all a take counsel 'gainst the Almighty God
A talk 'bout the Israel people dem mad
A long time we a watch dem all a boast and brag
A long time me a watch dem all a rape and rob
Dem a worship graven image and a praise false god
What was hidden from the old, it a reveal to the lad
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
And me ready, ready fi go start execute
Long time me recruit and now me kick off mi boot
