Lyrics
Chorus – Both Voices, horns explode
Jah guide I, Jah guide I
Through di fire and di storm, Jah guide I
Babylon fall, Zion rise high
Selassie I light never die
Jah guide I, Jah guide I
Herb fi di healing, truth fi di wise
One love, one aim, open yuh eyes
Jah guide we, forever rise!
Verse 1 – Deep Lead Male
Rise up inna di morning, give thanks and praise
Jah Rastafari light up di days
From di ghetto streets to di mountain breeze
We trod di road of truth and peace
Dem try fi blind we with dem lies and greed
But Rasta seed plant firm inna di creed
Chant down Babylon with word sound power
Herb meditation, hour after hour
Lion heart strong, no fear no doubt
Jah protection all about
Chorus – Both, bigger horns + bass drop
Jah guide I, Jah guide I
Through di fire and di storm, Jah guide I
Babylon fall, Zion rise high
Selassie I light never die
Jah guide I, Jah guide I
Herb fi di healing, truth fi di wise
One love, one aim, open yuh eyes
Jah guide we, forever rise!
Verse 2 – Deeper Rasta Toaster
Jah know, mi bun di corruption, bun di oppression
Rasta youth dem rise with di clear vision
No weapon form shall prosper, no session
Jah Jah shield we inna di progression
Troddin’ to Zion, gates dem open wide
Leave di downpression far behind
Ital living, pure and clean
Strength from di King, Jah seen
Forward ever, backward never
Rasta road together
Bridge – Chant style, horns swell
Haile I, Selassie I
Jah Rastafari, Jah Jah high
One God, one aim, one destiny
I and I forever free
Chorus – Outro, horns + bass build, fade with echoes
Jah guide I, Jah guide I
(Guide I, guide I!)
Through di fire and di storm, Jah guide I
(Rise up!)
Babylon fall, Zion rise high
(Never die!)
Selassie I light never die
Jah guide we… Jah guide we…
we…
