Why should I wanna hurt my brother just for vanities?
Why should I wanna hurt my sister for the least of things?
When I know I and I lives and reign and rule over everything
Nothing nor no-one gonna stop us now from doing the right thing

[Verse 1:]
The people had became a victim,whoa!
Because the system had make it so
Don't take no bribe from no politics,no!

One black love,is dat I come show
Just listen to this musical vibes that flow
From the seed what you sow,it bear the fruit for today and tomorrow

[Chorus B:]

I was born to protect black people pickney dem
Innocent little one to conflict,but dem
