Youth"

Rasta
youth, future of our nation
Rasta youth, tomorrow's generation
of new world
leaders, buffalo soldiers, duppy conquera's
in the dawning of one nation under
Jah
God, Jesus, Rastafari, Buddha
Mohammed, Shiva, Krishna, Vishnu, Bamba
or
whatever name you call
the source of Life that created us as One
One Love,
One Force, One Destiny
One Nation
indivisible with freedom, justice and
liberty
FOR ALL
a nation with no poverty, oppression, war or strife
a
nation without separation
celebrating the diversity of Life
not American,
African, Canadian, Australian,
South American, Middle Eastern, Indian,
Caribbean,
European or Asian
but one nation of humanity
living, loving and sharing
creation
in harmony, peace and unity
just the way Life intended it to be
Rasta
youth of today see far
know that the future of humankind you are
but always
remember and don't create blocks
Rasta is a state of being
which comes from
the heart
not from the locks
