(Featuring Garnet Silk)
-P. Barrett-

Garnet is long time we have something
To tell the world you know

So it was in the beginning
And a so it is straight unto the end
Nothing is new under the sun
So it was written
So it must be done seen
Ethiopian sons
Step up Jah sons

Garnet Silk's Verse:
We made a vow we promised
We're gonna keep it
We don't need your consent
We're God's instrument
I'm sure that we're fight
So we devoted our lives
To tell the world of the things we see
And what is to be

Watch me now now
From we a youth we no stop seek the truth
Inna Jah army we get recruit
No must a rebel that
And me nah tell no lie, we no stop try
Be the good sons of the most high
'Cause every man get a vision and have a mission
But not everyone going make the tradition
Some living illusion through position and possession
That cause division and bad decision
Stand haffi lake and we must draw the line
Remember who you are don't forget 'bout time
As you wake you feel the vibes
And as you sleep you see the signs
So make we go on spread the message to all mankind

Ai, yai, yai, yai, yai
Make a joyful noise unto Jah
Again Ethiopian sons

Garnet Silk's Verse

That decorated scene weh no stop attractive
No stop invitation fi come over come live
But through we mind done make up and we well positive
We just a do weh we have to do and don't get discourage
Because we mind a we thoughts and we works a we heart
Is prepare 'cause we swear and we already start
Are you really ready for this some people might ask
But with the powers of Jah we can deal with the task
Ai, yai, yai, yai, yai
From we a youth we no stop seek the truth
Inna Jah army we get recruit
No must a Rebel that
And me nah tell no lie, we no stop try
Be the good sons of the most high
No must a Rebel that
We expect the unexpected and we know we get a fight
But we know how it go when you start see Jah light
But we going to continue to do what is right
Feed the people with the words who have the appetite
I hear voices of people saying that we are strange
But we still nah change, nah rearrange
We shall be happy for the promise we keep
'Cause we know a weh you sow man, that you gwine reap
Ai, yai, yai, yai, yai
We won't change, won't rearrange
We'll find a way to break the chains again
