Dem kill a lumbar for his own rights
But dem can't kill di Rastaman at all
Keep on rising
We keep on rising
Say dem can't kill di Rastaman at all
The multitudes are coming with their arms open wide
Looking for serenity, some peace of mind
I tell them how I feel so then I seek and find
First identify yourself and make you happy in life
Everything that glitter isn't really gold
Stay positive and di truth will unfold
These things they were written on the ancient scroll
Arrange up your life and set positive goals
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold me down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep on rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold us down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
Princes and kings forever sit on their throne
The poor serve the rich and they remain unknown
I tell you how I feel and then I seek and find
First identify yourself and make you happy in life
Every time you make a move dem waan draw you down
Promises only comfort some clowns
This is what is written on the ancient scrolls
So hold up your head and have positive goals
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold me down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep on rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold us down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
Dem kill a lumbar for his own rights
But dem can't kill di Rastaman at all
Keep on rising
We keep on rising
Say dem can't kill di Rastaman at all
When you give it all you got
And you gave it your best shot
Hope that you'd feel free
Rise up and be who you want to be
There is so much in life to achieve
When you put your heart in it and you believe
Say what you want to say
Rise up
Rise up
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold me down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep on rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold us down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
There's so much in life to achieve
Just put your heart in it and you'll see
Say what you want to say
Rise up
Rise up
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold me down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
No matter how they try to keep me down
I keep on rising (rise up)
Even when they try to hold us down
We keep on surfacing (rise up)
Every pot weh you cook
Every look weh you look
A me you see in front of you
And everywhere that you turn
And every pot that you burn
A me you see in front of you
Ten million strong
We can't do nothing wrong
Just can't kill di Rastaman at all
Every time you turn around
A me you see up and down
Me a di bus driver
Me a di conductor
Me a di pilot
A me a di construction worker
Me a di mason, a di tailor, a di sailor
Me a di ship conductor
Me run things
Rise up
You can't get rid a me
