Some a di greatest people

So free up black people

A inna jail house dem wah fi lock people
Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people

Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people
My point is, the meek shall inherit the earth
And me nuh matter what the fight is
And it was written long before the 80s and
The 90s
Before the cornel find the spices
Black people don't get caught inna dem
System
Just overcome and don't become a victim
Cause dem system set fi dem get the future
Only the history we get
So free up black people
Live up black people
A inna jail house dem wah fi lock people
Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people
So free up black people
Free up black people
A inna jail house dem wah fi lock people
Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people
Don't figet Husain Bolt black
Greatest of the great

And join river Jordan
So free up black people
Live up black people
A inna jail house dem wah fi lock people
Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people
So free up black people
Free up black people
A inna jail house dem wah fi lock people
Mental shackles and chain inna brain dem
Trap people
So free up black people
Live up black people
