Rise And Stand

(앨범: Independence Day - 2004)

Give thanks and praise everyday
I will give thanks and praise to the father
Give thanks and do what I say
Ooh, I will do as you say

It is time that we are fighting for our rights now
Cos there's too much corruption in this world today
But they say that we, are the ones to blame now
Yet they contradict the law that they have made

So we must rise, rise and stand
We must liberate the suffering hand
So we must rise, rise and stand
Before we use by the murdering hand

You can see the richer getting richer and the poorer getting poor now
And it's our responsibility to stand our ground
Instilling all the fear and paranoia in our lives now
Judgement time'ah comin and his royal highness shall make it right

So we must rise, rise and stand
We must liberate the suffering hand
Say we must rise, rise and stand
Before we used by the murdering hand

Throw up your hands you must give thanks and praise cos
God give you de strength to be true everyday lets
Work together, to find a better way
So that everyone can have a say
I'll pray
Fe de people in de ghetto
Fe de children who are suffer
Fe de single baby mothers
Fe mankind all cry cos
Rastah now stand up and fight for dem rights-ah
Never stop until em set your light

So we must rise, rise and stand
We must liberate the suffering hand
We must rise, rise and stand
Before we use by the murdering hand

That's why we must
Give thanks and praise everyday
I will give thanks and praise to the father
Give thanks and do what I say
Ooh, I will do as you say

Give thanks and praise everyday
I will give thanks and praise to the father
Give thanks and do what I say
Ooh, I will do as you say
