Rebel Souljah

**[Intro – 0:00–0:15]**

Yeah man...

Rise up, rise up!

One heart, one love, one family.

No matter where you come from.

Keep it positive.

Keep it real.

Keep it irie!

**[Verse 1 – 0:15–0:45]**

Mi walk through the fire,

But mi heart stay clean.

See the pain in the world,

And mi know what it mean.

Mi nuh fight against people,

Mi fight against fear.

Mi stand for the truth,

And mi stand right here.

Love inna mi heart,

Peace inna mi hand.

Unity strong,

All across the land.

Black, white, yellow, brown,

Every woman, every man.

Different roots, same earth,

Together we can stand.

**[Pre-Chorus – 0:45–1:00]**

So rise up, people,

Don't give up the fight.

Put a little love

Inna somebody life.

No hate, no war,

No reason to divide.

Walk with respect,

And keep your heart open wide.

**[CHORUS – 1:00–1:30]**

I'm a rebel Souljah,

Fighting for peace.

Rebel Souljah,

Love never cease.

One love, one heart,

One family tonight.

Respect for all humans,

Let's make things right.

**Rebel Souljah!**

**One love! One love!**

**Rebel Souljah!**

**Peace from above!**

**[Verse 2 – 1:30–2:00]**

Mi nuh need no crown,

Mi nuh need no fame.

Mi just want freedom,

And a world without shame.

If your brother fall,

Help him rise again.

If your sister cry,

Be a friend, not a chain.

From Kingston town

To the African sun,

From the islands

To the streets where we come from.

Different language,

Different style, different name,

But underneath it all,

We are human just the same.

**[Pre-Chorus – 2:00–2:15]**

So rise up, people,

Let the good vibes flow.

Plant love in the ground,

Watch the good things grow.

No hate, no war,

Let compassion be the guide.

Walk with respect,

Let love be your light.

**[CHORUS – 2:15–2:45]**

I'm a rebel Souljah,

Fighting for peace.

Rebel Souljah,

Love never cease.

One love, one heart,

One family tonight.

Respect for all humans,

Let's make things right.

**Rebel Souljah!**

**One love! One love!**

**Rebel Souljah!**

**Peace from above!**

**[BRIDGE / DANCEHALL BREAK – 2:45–3:05]**

Tell dem!

Nuh matter your colour,

Nuh matter your name.

Nuh matter your country,

We all feel the same.

Hands in the air,

Let the whole world know.

Love is the answer,

Let the good vibes flow!

Peace in the East!

Love in the West!

Unity North!

South, give your best!

One planet!

One people!

One destiny!

Respect every human being!
