(Chorus, Stephen Marley:)
2
It was written up in the book of life
3
That man shall endure forever more
4
It was written up in the book of life
5
That man shall endure forever more
6
(Verse:)
7
Well did you know the pen
8
Is stronger than the knife
9
They can kill you once
10
But they caníƒ"¢t kill you twice
11
Did you know destruction of the flesh
12
Is not di ending to life
13
Fear not of the anti-christ
14
Did you know that I
15
Exist before the earth
16
And did you know my eyes
17
Are window to the world
18
Did you know you can't go ah Zion
19
and ah wear jerry curls
20
Can't tell di boys from di girls
21
Your bodies just a vehicle
22
Transporting the soul
23
It's what's inside people
24
Is beauty to behold
25
Fear not of evil
26
Every day dem flesh it grow old
27
Changes of the times take a toll
28
(Chorus)
29
(Verse, Capleton)
30
(Bridge:)
31
A vester on his chest
32
And Rastafari is his name
33
A gift of everlasting life
34
For us to all sustain
35
Blessing that you all be got
36
Lessons taught you all forgot
37
Rasta call I shit you not
38
Do you remember Elijah
39
And his chariot of flames
40
Same blood dat run thru my veins
41
(Verse, Capleton)
42
(Chorus)
43
(Verse, Drag-On)
44
(Chorus)
45
Watch for sticks and stones
46
Stumbling blocks in piles
47
Life is one big road
48
Miles on top of miles
49
So blessed be the soul
50
That always remains a child
51
And most people don't even smile
52
There's a natural mystic
53
Blowing in true the air
54
So keep it realistic
55
And always be aware
56
The truth is crying out
57
And itíƒ"¢s so loud and so clear
58
But most people won't even hear
59
Spiritual pollution is in the atmosphere
60
And with so much confusion
61
Can one be happy here
62
The gift of Rastafari is for all man to share
63
But some would rather to be so unfair
64
(Chorus)
