Il testo della Dem rise

Dem ride, today
And they, know jah
So them, call them
And so, long they
Well, if they should conquer dem, conquer dem
If they should ride at them, ride at them
They should love for them, and for them
If they should conquer dem, conquer dem

So them come to jah-jah so very, very long
So, they want to meet them in the garden
And if they want to chant,
See them chant, see them go-oh
Louder than the flea, and the mosquito-oh-oh
They chant so loud, rock dem soul jah
Them chant so loud, rock dem soul jah
And the lamb them gone, gone with him soul

A dem a chant so, upon dem soul...

(bridge)
Some a dem come from buzz-rock chanting
Oh, zion mountain
You shall rebuild dem holy scripture in your soul...
Oh to meet them thrown a god!
Oh to meet dem thrown a god! (2x)
Home, jah beat it inna, jah beat inna
Home, home oh-oh-oh
Jah beat it inna, home
Jah beat it inna, jah beat inna
Jah beat it inna, jah beat inna
Home, home, home, home
Why the world so, so very cold? (3x)
Colder than before, i-man know
Colder than before...
