Ready To Work

(álbum: Don't Haffi Dread - 1999)

Ear the calling in the one in
To leave them a principle message

Rise up everybody get ready to work
Rise up everybody get ready to work
Rise up everybody get ready to work
Rise up everybody get ready to work
Rise up everybody get ready to work

Every one's got so much to say
Still no one wants to lead the way
For the people to rise and revolutionize the day
See, we're the real revolutionaries
Come to help you as above poverty
Listen to the sounds of heritage and get ready to work

Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work

I got visions of everyman working in one unity, one unity
So much prophets have spoken though the years
We talk so much it's like a job to the ears
We got to rise and everyman conquer the fears
(Conquer your fears)

You stand around waiting for a change
As time passes everything remains the same
I can't help my children to grow up and witness the same

Rise up everybody ready to work
(Get ready ya)
Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work

The only way things can be done
As if we all work together as one
Unifying all Africans
Even with the hand in hand with white man
I got vision of everyman working in one unity

Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
(From the north to the south)
Rise up everybody ready to work
(From the east to the west)
Rise up everybody ready to work
(Get ready ya)

The ghetto youth have the strength to survive
So hard they live is the knowledge of the wise
They made the righteous choice between good over evil
Don't let money stop the young minds
Give them the knowledge and don't chop them a dime
We got working to stop money from destroying mankind

Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
(Get ready ya)
Rise up everybody ready to work
Rise up everybody ready to work
