Help us father
From this energy crisis
You see and know
We just can't take it
What a cruel situation
It need no explanation
Just more starvation
We build the West and don't build no war
Look how we bear so far
Still are we in the West
And I feel it
Oh Jah
We just can't take it
Please help us father
Fight them
Ahhh-aaah
Arab and Israel a fuss and fight
Aaah-Aaaah
True them no know Jah them can't unite
Aaah-Aaaah
What a cruel situation
It need no explanation
Just more destination
I know (x10)
It's a cruel situation
Aaaaah
It's a cruel situation
Aaaaah
So help us father from energy crisis
You see and know we just can't take it
What a cruel situation
It need no explanation
Just more destination
I know (x10)

>Pa Pa!
>Pa pa!
Yes son?
>Them man that whip me
>Do both come back Papa
>More man Papa
Have no fear son
Jah is great
So Jah be light (?)
Plead I cause oh Jah
With them that strike at I
Fight against them
That fight against I
Take hold of shield and buckler
And stand up for I help
Draw out thy spear
And stab the way against them
That try to persecute I
Say unto I
Thou art I salvation
This day
As I would say
And let them be conformed
And put to shame
Then seek after I
Let them be turned back
And brought to confusion
Yeaahh
I beg you
Let them be of the chaff
Which of we driveth away
This day as I would say
Let their way be dark and slippery
And let the works of their work persecute them
For without cause they have hid for I their net in a pit
Which without cause they have digged for I
For thy son Jah Rastafari
Yeeaaay
So let destruction come upon him
A gone no where (?)
As I would say
Let his net that he had set for I
Catch himself as I would say
Into that very destruction
Let him fall this day
As I would say
Then I shall be joyful in thee
In thee oh Jah Rastafari
Shall I rejoice
All I bones shall say
Him
Jah, who is light unto day
Him
Which deliver the poor from the needy
