Oh father who art in Zion
Stand by our side, keep us firm like a lion
Don't let us stray, keep us firm with iron
Zion, eh
As I open my eyes and I see
A system corrupted, so much poverty
But we'll overcome- we're protected by the Almighty
I ask them,
In the state that we are in, can we move forward, my people
Pull yourselves together
Lace your shoes and let's just move forward
My people, ehh
They kidnappin our girls and killin off our babies
The kind of life we're livin it is kind of crazy
Who's to serve and protect becomes our own enemies, believe me, eh
It hard inna di street fi make a one grand
So where di hell so much gun come from
Inna di garrison a dog eat dog
Politician still a draw card
I ask them,
In the state that we are in can we move forward, my people
Pull yourselves together
Lace your shoes and let's just move forward, my people
To a brighter day
There's a light at the end of the tunnel and a brighter day, we pray
For a brighter day, there's a light at the end of the tunnel and a brighter day, we pray
I ask them,
In the state that we are in can we move forward, my people
Pull yourselves together
Lace your shoes and let's just move forward, my people
Say
The kids wanna play in the park
People wanna feel safe a when they walk
If you sure that you love Jamaica from your heart
Time fi unu play unu your part
Talkin to Jamaicans home and abroad
Whether citizen or you a carry green card
Haffi lift the flag we can't drop the standard
Fi Jamrock we haffi build the vanguard
I ask them,
In the state that we are in can we move forward, my people
Pull yourselves together
Lace your shoes and let's just move forward, my people
To a brighter day
