Understand Yourself

When we're together we're so dangerous
The systems are afraid of us
Organize and centralize
Only the strong will be Westernized
I don't wanna blend in (Oh no)
This is my roots and culture
And I don't wanna spend all
My life in the land of vultures
I know we all can follow, I don't mind
Take me to Africa and I'll be fine

Hey, up you mighty people
Accomplish what you will
Say you must be free so
How come you're sleeping still?
Up you mighty people
Accomplish what you will
Say you must be free
How come you're sleeping still?
Up you mighty people
Accomplish what you will
Say you must be free
How come you're sleeping still?
Up you mighty people
Accomplish what you will

Children of Africa, understand yourself
Understand yourself, understand yourself
Children of Africa, understand yourself
Understand yourself, understand yourself

Breathe...

Love and overstanding, every day
Love and overstanding now

The brightest light is within you
Overstand yourself and let your light shine bright, baby, oh
For that I know the brightest light shines deep within you
You got to overstand yourself and let your light shine bright
Overstand this is the words of a Rastaman
Go on and let your light shine
Go on and let your light shine, bright
Go on and let your light shine
Go on and let your light shine, bright
Go on and let your light shine
Go on and let your light shine
Words of a Rastaman

All day we're shining our light
I'm an alien Rastafari
Love to my people 'cause we alright, yeah
Carve a land that wanna be nice
Picture a man that wanna do right
Can't stand your light, you're too bright, yeah
Still we flash it, now I get to know about it
None of these fools can stop this
Africa, intergalactic
And we have no fear, Jah Jah is always there
Jah Jah is always there
Yeah yeah, Jah Jah is always there
