I and I people must live on
Rasta people say we must live on
We as the people say we must live on
It doesn't matter what place you're from
We must live on
There is power in their game and so are we
Take a look in the mirror and the image you see
Don't you try to be a wanna be
You got to take full control of your destiny
First they take your land and your food
Then your music and your birthright too
I and I people must live on

It doesn't matter what race you're from
We must live on

We have been through many ups and downs
But oh Lord, we are still around (thanks and praises)
So was the Indian, so was the Jews
So was the black man, so was everyone
It doesn't matter what nation are you from
I got to tell you we must all live as one
I and I people must live on
Jah Jah people say we must live on

Say we must live on, yeah, yeah
We must come together as one people
Say we must live on, yeah
Honour and gold will fade away
But your dignity is here to stay
There is always wolves in sheep clothing
Beware, for they will take your soul, yeah now
They will take your land and your food
Take your music and your birthright too
