Lyrics
[Verse]
Down in the land of Babylon
Where the people oppressed
Jah children fightin'
But we won't surrender
We ain't gonna rest
Chant down Babylon
Break the chains of inequality
Selassie I guide us
Bringin' peace and unity
You see
[Chorus]
Oh
Forward we go
Together we stand tall (stand tall)
With love in our hearts
We'll watch Babylon fall (fall, fall)
Fiyah burnin' bright
Burnin' for our rights (oh-yeah)
Jah won't let Babylon continue its fight (no, no)
[Verse]
In the streets of Kingston
We blaze the fyah
We keep it real
Through the riddim vibrations
Our voices they will feel
No matter the troubles
We rise above
We're warriors strong
Jamaican heart
Jamaican soul
Where we belong
[Verse]
I hear the music
It's playing so sweet
The rhythm's flowing
It's starting to heat (ooh-yeah)
Got my dancing shoes on
Ready to go
The night is young
And I'm ready to show (what I got)
[Chorus]
Oh
Forward we go
Together we stand tall (stand tall)
With love in our hearts
We'll watch Babylon fall (fall, fall)
Fiyah burnin' bright
Burnin' for our rights (oh-yeah)
Jah won't let Babylon continue its fight (no, no)
[Bridge]
You thought you had me under your spell
But now I'm breaking free
Breaking free
I've found my voice
I'm stronger than before
No longer blind to your deceit
[Verse 3]
I'm caught up in the cycle of your twisted lies
Can't break free
But I won't compromise
You tore my heart into a million shattered pieces
But I won't let you bring me down
No
Not this time (no, not this time)
[Chorus]
Oh
Forward we go
Together we stand tall (stand tall)
With love in our hearts
We'll watch Babylon fall (fall, fall)
Fiyah burnin' bright
Burnin' for our rights (oh-yeah)
Jah won't let Babylon continue its fight (no, no)
[End]
