Selassie I Great

Great and wonderful great 

Rastaman ah fly with the angel in the sky

Mikael by my side so you know mi never die

Uriel and Rufiel look upon dem eye

When they look upon I face and they look upon I eye

Look upon the heavens and you see where I reside

By the river still water palm tree grow high

And the mystery reveal to the meek and the blind

To the poor man riches and the poor woman sight

Hold upon the beat and hold upon the high

Hold upon the bass and hold upon the I

Drum and bass like a stick of dynamite

So we’re dread and terrible when the sound get high

Dubplate fling like a Jedi I

With the force of a thousand chariot I

With the word sound power to the crescent height

Selassie I Great

Rastaman ah fly with the angel in the sky

Uriel and Rufiel look upon dem eye

Look upon the heavens and you see where I reside

By the river still water palm tree grow high

And the mystery reveal to the meek and the blind

To the poor man riches and the poor woman sight

Hold upon the beat and hold upon the high

Hold upon the bass and hold upon the I

Drum and bass like a stick of dynamite

So we’re dread and terrible when the sound get high

Dubplate fling like a Jedi I

With the force of a thousand chariot I

With the word sound power to the crescent height

DON’T SLEEP

Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Rest your eyes at night and close your eyes
But deep in your mind don't sleep
Don't sleep

Don't sleep and sleep until the sunrise gone

Until the evening come and you ain't go nothing done

Don't sleep and sleep until you're

All dig and buried

And the vision hazy

Babylon lazy

So much to do so little time

So many things inna mi mind

So many things fallen behind

Can't waste time

Don't waste time

Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Rest your eyes at night and close your eyes
But deep in your mind don't sleep
Don't sleep

Don't sleep and sleep until the right time come

Sleep and sleep until your body broke down

I and I up in the morning 3 o'clock prayer done

Fari livity is a disciplined one

Rastafari livity is not a lazy one

Say, set the standard and the bar up

Everytime I say Selassie I have to stay up

Stay up

Stay up and don't sleep in the Gideon time. 

Stay up and dont sleep if you waan save your life

Stay up inna the time

Up inna the time

Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Don't sleep in this time don't sleep
Rest your eyes at night and close your eyes
But deep in your mind don't sleep
Don't sleep
