Zion, dreaming from a Iron gate
Dragon, fire ago burn dem all

The light struck the night
Oh the Congo man a chanting, oh dem Congo man a chant...

Oh the youth dem know
And you could see the changes
From the mind and thought of our children
Here in desolate places
Yeah now!

Wo yeah! Oh yeah! Now

See them come up along dem road, oh I can see them
Some walk by day, some stalk by night
Oh Rastafari shall greet them in the end
And so de man, them run up so long, so long, oh, Lord!
Them beaten dem down, them shootin´ dem down
Oh it´s a poor man´s battle for the youth man stalk
And the rich dem run away

Seems like de don´t know dem right from wrong
But I see the youth will fight tonight, wo!
Look how they jump, and shriek and moan
For natty coming over

Oh yeah, oh yeah oh!
Oh yeah now
A chapter away, keep the evil away
A chapter a day
A vampire a go burn!
A chapter a day, keep the evil away
a chapter a day, a keep the heathen away
Beat dem! Mash dem!

Gonna beat them down
Gonna mash them down, mash them I say
Gonna beat them down
The elders have said

Mash them down
Oh the elders have said
For righteousness
Righteousness
Righteousness
Go on seek out the light
Righteousness
Go on seek out the light
