Equal rights and justice for all

Rise and never fall

Tell dem sey… Boom!

Say what they gonna do, dem get slew, yaaaw

(Sub-Chorus)

Who do you think you are, we’re living ina small world

As wicked as you think you are, we’re living in a small world

As bad as you think you are, we’re living in a small world

Da one ya name, alright

(Chorus)

That day will come, when I shall stand and see all those wicked men and the

fiyah gettin bun

That day will come, when they will try to escape and there will be nowhere to run

That day will come, when I shall see, they hand in all the bombs and

bayonnettes and bullets and gun

That day will come, when Emperor Selassie I shall rise di whole a di ghetto

yute dem from outta di slum

(Verse 1)

And the day I would love to see their face

For the all those evil they do to the human race

And try to take things out of place

Run away to space, true dem inna…

Off you owna judgement, you a go get a taste

When dem find out sey dat dem caan escape

Sadness they send on the people dem trace

Smile on my face

(Chorus)

That day will come, when I shall stand and see all those wicked men and the

fiyah gettin bun

That day will come, when they will try to escape and there will be nowhere to run

That day will come, when I shall see, they hand in all the bombs and

bayonnettes and bullets and gun

That day will come, when Emperor Selassie I shall rise di whole a di ghetto

yute dem from outta di slum

(Sub-Chorus)

Who do you think you are, we’re living ina small world

As wicked as you think you are, we’re living in a small world

As slick as you think you are, we’re living in a small world

As tough as you think you are, we’re living in a…

Da one ya name, tell dem!

(Verse 2)

Escape today, you caan escape tomorrow

Mek sure you pay back anytime you borrow

Mek sure you dont leff no life inna sorrow

Mek sure you nuh lead none straight like arrow

Mek sure you brains nuh push out it nuh borrow

Mek sure you nuh mek dem coke out an parro, yeah!

Mek sure you meditation nuh narrow

Judgement!

Yo mi waan tell dem sumpn… Di world a one…

(Chorus)

That day will come, when I shall stand and see all those wicked men and the

fiyah gettin bun

That day will come, when they will try to escape and there will be nowhere to run

That day will come, when I shall see, they hand in all the bombs and

bayonnettes and bullets and gun

That day will come, when Emperor Selassie I shall ride out pon di wings of the

heavens inna di sun

(Bridge)

I will remain the same

Hailing Rastafari name

And watch dem going up in flames

For all the innocent going down the drain

You have to pay for the shackles and chains

And pay for these washing of the brain

And pay for these guns and cocaine

The sick and the lame, alright
