Solid as a rock an you know seh we ready,

We have too stand up and deal with them right,

We have to stand up and deal with them right.

Form a circle, light the chalice, mek we call the rasta man,
Mek we beat the bingi drum, mek we chant down babylon,

It's jus the buds on the herb, to which me partial,
Burn it by the key and by the ounce cor me a general,
Lick it inna me pipe, we win any battle, battle, battle, battle.
It is tue time that you know we have to fight,

Help me ou farther with your words of wisdom,
This is a chant of a poor man.

All sufferers, a natural mystical, earth force,

Continuation, music will never cease,
All sufferers.
