Cause we are all one people, one creature, one sky, and it is not our fate that we should be divided

and why do I feel like we don't never see and the faith in the future are in our arms today

Corporate politicians, hung up on puppet strings, making bad decisions for all of us

With so much under cover, its only in each other that we can put our trust

this world will die but the spirit is forever

Marching forward, through the never, past returning,beyond forever,  
Dm             D#          Gm                                   D#         E                           
now reborn, again we borrow these hearts and hands through our joy and our sorrow 

  Cm            Bb    Cm        Bb       Gm 
And we burn the fyah, Rastaman burn the fyah

this world will die but the spirit is forever 

verse 2 

Cm                 Bb                 Fm            D#        Bb 
Cause if into the future we all could see, we'd probably do things a little differently 
Cm         Bb                    Fm                       D#            Gm 
At least I hope we would have the sense to see the futility of all this violence 
Cm         Bb                    Fm                       D#             Bb 
Now we're seeing the damage we've done, we're becoming prisoners of our own sun,

and if we are going to survive in these times, we got to leave the past behind

future's past, from descendants to ancestors, I and I return forIver 
Cm      Bb      Fm     Gm        
Burn the fyah, neva retiya 
Cm         Bm
