Lyrics
God alone, a God alone
Rasta alone can save us
When Babylon try to enslave us
Hey!
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
Send down your angels just to save us
When Babylon a try to enslave us
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
I cannot face this trial alone
Rasta wield the sword of God alone
Cyan say we never see no evil
When we see all a the youths them a die
Cyan say we never hear the gunshot
Tears fall from mi eye
People a fall like rain
Seems we immune to the pain
These are the days
Things get dark 'cause the light them a fade
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
Send down your angels just to save us
When Babylon a try to enslave us
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
I cannot face this trial alone
Rasta wield the sword of God alone
Outta road, no discipline
Man a live with no care within
Young girl a bleach fi try fit in
Young boy a try move fancy king
These are the signs of the times
Me have pre-revelation in mind
O man David, grab your shield and follow behind
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
Send down your angels just to save us
When Babylon a try to enslave us
Rastafari, and I and I
Please won't you hear me when I cry?
I cannot face this trial alone
Rasta wield the sword of God alone
Hey what a gwaan? Hey what a gwaan?
No work no deh again
The youths them rise and them nah keep calm
You no see the sign inna this ya time?
Only Jah can save us all
Time fi we start think 'bout God again
And stop bite down we bredda dem
Only Jah can set us free
