Lyrics
Intro
Irie… yeah…
Respect to the elders…
From Zion to Babylon…
Their spirit lives… 🌿✌️
Verse 1
Hear the rhythm… hear the drum…
Bob Marley singing “Exodus”… we come…
Peter Tosh says, “Legalize It”… we rise…
Toots & the Maytals… joyful cries…
Burning Spear chanting “Marcus Garvey”… stand tall…
Dennis Brown’s voice echoes… through the hall…
Bunny Wailer keeps the roots alive…
Gregory Isaacs… makes the lovers vibe…
Chorus
Oh Jah… we lift them high…
Voices of the past… never die…
Rastafari guide us… in the night…
Old reggae kings… bring the light 🇯🇲
Steel Pulse… Jimmy Cliff… call us strong…
Alton Ellis… Marcia Griffiths sing along…
Respect the elders… respect the crown…
Through the rhythm… we never down… 🌿
Verse 2
Lee Scratch Perry… brews the dub fire…
King Tubby… makes the bassline higher…
Sizzla, Buju… bring the chant and fight…
The message of Jah… keeps us right…
From Trenchtown streets… to the digital sky…
The music lives… no matter how time flies…
The roots resurrected… spirit clear…
Ancestors chant… their voices near…
Verse 3 – Tribute to BOOGONE ❤️✌️🇯🇲🔥🎵
From the shadows of the past… to the digital flame…
BOOGONE rises… calling out the names…
Old voices live through him… they sound so clear…
Every rhythm drop… makes us feel them near…
He carries the roots… respect in his hand…
Linking past to present… across the land…
Every beat… every melody… every song…
The legends walk again… they are never gone… 🌿
Chorus
Oh Jah… we lift them high…
Voices of the past… never die…
Rastafari guide us… in the night…
Old reggae kings… bring the light 🇯🇲
Steel Pulse… Jimmy Cliff… call us strong…
Alton Ellis… Marcia Griffiths sing along…
Respect the elders… respect the crown…
Through the rhythm… we never down… 🔥
Bridge
One love… one heart… hear the call…
Jah wisdom… guide us all…
They are not gone… they live in sound…
The legends eternal… all around… 🌿
Outro
Light up the chalice… feel the vibes…
Old reggae artists… never hide…
From Bob to Peter… Toots to Dennis… seen…
The rhythm eternal… the spirit clean… 🔥
