Napalm Dread

I&I got meditation and look around
Everywhere I see reflections of mankind
This mankind that killed our forests with black smoke
The same mankind that separates us making war

Well all they make is war, jah war
A tribal war a tribal war

So when I think about the beauty that’s in this life
I swear I can’t understand why they’re making guns
And when I think that every assassin has been a child
I wonder, have they ever thought about mom and dad

They never thought about mom and dad so I say…

Fyah, fyah burning Babylon
Gonna’ rise my spirit to the almighty one
Fyah, fyah fyah burning wicked man
Who set the rules against the rastaman

Forgive them father, forgive us all
Forgive our mistreat with our own world
Give us redemption and give us hope
Give us salvation, don’t let us fall, don’t let us fall

Fyah, fyah burning Babylon
Gonna’ rise my spirit to Selassie I
Fyah, fyah fyah burning wicked man
Who set the rules against the rastaman
