Damian "Junior Gong" Marley Confrontation Lyrics:
Mr. President, Distinguished Delegates... H.I.M
Haile Selassie: (SPEAKS IN ETHIOPIAN LANGUAGE)
Bunny Wailer Dialogue: Since the beginning of
modern civilization/ generations have witnessed
and inherited the only conflicts of world wars/
but behold the marriage supper of the lamb and the
bridegroom onto his bride/ then shall the earth's
children know the true epression of ONE LOVE, then
mother earth shall honeymoon in peace. Forever
eliminating the aspirations, lust and anguish of
wars and rumors of wars...SELAH! VERS: See it deh
know the innocent going up in vapors and/
propoganda spreading inna the sunday papers not
even superman coulda save you with him cape cause/
Red-a judgement a blaze, blaze, ya/ and Babylon a
gamble the youth dem life like racehourse/ and gi
dem a uniform and shave dem head with razors/ and
now the clock a strike war, don't be amazed cause/
inna dem churches tryin to save...saviours/ Garvey

Garvey: if you cannot do it, if you are not
prepared to do it...then you will die. You race of
cowards, you race of imbosiles, you race of good
for nothings, if you cannot do what other men have
done, what other nations have done, what other
races have done, then you yourself shall die.
Repeat Verse: See it deh know the innocent going
up in vapors and/ propoganda spreading inna the
sunday papers not even superman coulda save you
with him cape cause/ Red-a judgement a blaze,
blaze, ya/ and Babylon a gamble the youth dem life
like racehourse/ and gi dem a uniform and shave
dem head with razors/ and now the clock a strike
war, don't be amazed cause/ inna dem churches
tryin to save...saviours/ Damian Marley: Hey! now
wi fore parents sacrifice enough/ dem blood sweat
and tears run like syrup/ any dany a revolution
might erupt/ and they skys over kingston lighting
up/ for the new generation rising up/ of youths
now a days weh dem sighting up/ and through
reasoning dem biding up/ searchign for the sign
and the sign is us/ searching for the truth all
you find is us/ searching for the troops still
behind it's us/ the almighty we recruit and we
come from the root/ we build like roach killing
boot/ weh just can't done/ Rastafari design we
tuff/ if a the fight for freedom, sign me up/
cause you Tell-Lie-Vision can't blind me up/
Soldiers and police dem wising up/ realizing
they're no more right than us/ realizing there's
no use fighting us,/ realizing their opening their
eyes to see the same demoralizing life as us/ so
we nah tek talk nor smiling up/ cause the word
temper tantrum boiling up/ and who.../ calling the
shots and nah buss none/ controlling the mind of
the young/ Bring Down.../ bear famine, no rain nah
fall/ from London to Dadeland mall all the son of
the virgin bawl/ institute of the church IN WAR/
preaching and researching WAR/ practice and
rehearsing WAR/ teaching and dem learing WAR/
instigating and urging WAR/ always keep alert in
WAR/ cause man wi jump out a swerving car/ now
bees and birds IN WAR/ and the freeks and nerds IN
WAR/ and the straight and curves IN WAR/ forward
and reverse IN WAR/ RED...IT RED...IT RED...IT
RED...IT RED Garvey: if you cannot do it, if you
are not prepared to do it...then you will die. You
race of cowards, you race of imbosiles, you race
of good for nothings, if you cannot do what other
men have done, what other nations have done, what
other races have done, then you yourself shall
die.
