My people be free cause the world is yours
And take control of your life of course

Who the most high bless no wizard can curse

And take control of yourself of course
Can't be held down by no evil force
Whoo the most high bless no man curse

[Verse 1]

There's food and clothes and shelter to spread amongst the people and the land
With loyalty and humbleness you shall inherit the earth
Know your purpose in creation and do you part make an effort

And the cost of living gets so high the poor and needy cyaan sustain
Let righteousness exhalt and harmony flow through every heart
With love and blessings flowing through your reward kyant come up short

My people be free cause the world is yours
And take control of your life of course

With all that Jah created why can't we just live as one
There's food and clothes and shelter to spread amongst the people and the land
With loyalty and humbleness you shall inherit the earth
Know your purpose in creation and do you part make an effort

My people be free cause the world is yours
And take control of your life of course
