(Horns
swell
into
a
crescendo,
the
one-drop
rhythm
kicks
in
hard!)
Jah
know,
from
the
northern
border
to
the
southern
shore
We
don't
want
to
hear
the
sound
of
the
cannon
no
more
The
uniform
you
wear
is
to
protect
the
humble
soul
But
you
taking
control
and
you
losing
your
own
goal
Power
in
the
barrel,
that’
s
a
legacy
of
fear
But
the
voice
of
the
people
is
the
only
thing
we
hear
Put
down
the
weapon,
let
the
democracy
breathe
It’
s
a
brand
new
season,
time
for
the
truth
to
interweave
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
hear
the
cry
We
want
to
build
a
nation
where
the
truth
will
never
die
No
more
coup
d’
état,
no
more
shadows
in
the
hall
When
the
people
stand
together,
the
heavy
empires
fall
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
set
the
spirit
free
We
need
a
righteous
path
for
the
sake
of
liberty
History
is
writing
what
you’
re
doing
in
the
dark
You’
re
trying
to
extinguish
the
fire
and
the
spark
But
a
soldier’
s
duty
is
to
defend
and
to
guide
Not
to
take
the
throne
with
a
sense
of
empty
pride
Children
in
the
schoolyard,
mothers
in
the
street
They
want
to
see
a
future
where
the
justice
is
complete
Listen
to
the
rhythm
of
the
roots
in
the
ground
It’
s
the
sound
of
the
freedom
that
you
cannot
keep
down
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
hear
the
cry
We
want
to
build
a
nation
where
the
truth
will
never
die
No
more
coup
d’
état,
no
more
shadows
in
the
hall
When
the
people
stand
together,
the
heavy
empires
fall
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
set
the
spirit
free
We
need
a
righteous
path
for
the
sake
of
liberty
Can
you
feel
the
vibration?
The
unity
is
rising
now
No
more
taking
orders
under
a
broken
vow
Put
the
ego
aside,
look
the
citizens
in
the
eye
Underneath
the
same
sun,
beneath
the
same
sky (
Horns
take
a
solo,
soaring
and
bright)
Rise
up,
stand
tall,
let
the
wisdom
take
the
lead
Planting
better
harvest
from
a
better
kind
of
seed
The
table
is
waiting
for
the
council
of
the
wise
We’
re
moving
past
the
anger,
we’
re
moving
past
the
lies
Let
the
constitution
be
the
mirror
on
the
wall
Let
the
voice
of
the
many
be
the
answer
to
the
call
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
hear
the
cry
We
want
to
build
a
nation
where
the
truth
will
never
die
No
more
coup
d’
état,
no
more
shadows
in
the
hall
When
the
people
stand
together,
the
heavy
empires
fall
Put
down
the
gun,
serve
the
people,
set
the
spirit
free
We
need
a
righteous
path
for
the
sake
of
liberty
Serve
the
people,
yeah
Put
down
the
gun,
step
aside
Let
the
people
decide
Freedom
ringing
from
the
mountains
to
the
sea
Jah
guide
the
nation (
Fade
out
with
heavy
bass
and
echoing
horns)
