Youth man, youth man, take a look and see
That they're filling your head with propaganda and hypocrisy
Bredren and sistren, stand up for your rights
And say I and I will never give up the fight
No, no I and I a fire burning bright
Lord
Said they're coming, claiming ownership of Jah Jah land
Bloodletting and suppressing all our father's plans
And then they come and say they're free from sea to shining sea
But they know nothing at all about high levity, yeah
Said they're broadcasting their frequency to your radio
Preventing and suppressing conscious vibes to flow
And then they come and try to say that you need therapy
When they are the ones that are living in a fantasy
Say oh Lord
Up top, top ranking
Said down in Babylon we're still skanking
Up top, top ranking, yeah
Said down in Babylon we're still skanking
'Cause we belong, our spirit is strong
It's spreading all over the weak hearts of a Babylon
And in this new dawn, it won't be long
Until we're drinking milk and honey in Mount Zion
Hey, ah, yeah, oh, ah
Youth man, youth man, take a look and see
That they're filling your head with propaganda and hypocrisy
Bredren and sistren, stand up for your rights
And say I and I will never give up the fight
No, no I and I a fire burning bright
I said, how many more years do you waste your precious time?
Fixated on possessions while television destroys your mind
How many more times will you work until your fingers bleed?
When everything you need in life is there for free
Oh my Lord
I can hear my God
Moaning through the cracks in the pavement
Saying, what will be done, yeah
To clean up this mess that you've made?
It's not too late, it's not too late
But it will be soon if we keep consuming at this rate
We need to break the chain and start again
So that we can live to see the faces of our grandchildren
Woah, ah, yeah, oh
Youth man, youth man, take a look and see
That they're filling your head with propaganda and hypocrisy
Bredren and sistren, stand up for your rights
And say I and I will never give up the fight
No
Youth man, youth man, take a look and see
That they're filling your head with propaganda and hypocrisy
Bredren and sistren, stand up for your rights
And say I and I will never give up the fight
No, no, no
No, I and I a fire burning bright
Lord, I and I a fire burning bright
Oh, I and I a fire burning bright
My God
Man a burning, a burning, a burning
Burning for Jah love
Oh Lord, I said behold
For the seed of a prophet is planted in every man
It's planted in our hearts, planted in our hearts
And I said behold
For these are the times when everyone will have to overstand
Child, woman, and man
What that we've got to respect the earth
And love one another
And we've got to do up Jah works
And give thanks and praise to the Father
