Where are we now in 2008?
Looking to the future, or is it just too late?
Black guy at the top is shouting 'yes we can'
Is he another liar, or is he a peoples man?
Struggling not to sink atruggling just to survive
most of us may feel dead but inside Jah live
Theres a way through the fog can see it in your eyes
Today you keep your heads down but tomorrow you will rise
To reclaim, to rise up
to forget about our shame
or are you happy in the gutter leaving everything the same?
You and I spell community
you and I spell true society
you and I spell equality
you and I- Rastafari!
Am I a minor player singing in a major key
Or am I a major player making music history?
So wheres the peace for me now late at night and I can't sleep
Keep thinking things don't want to think- I'm in too deep
Want to work with SPIRIT, want to be true
not for you, not for you or for you or for you
but for me to be free, live in my reality
yesterday was no way
but today we can pray
for tomorrow thats the thing
lets see what we bring in
You and I spell equality
you and I spell fair society
you and I spell fraternity
you and I
Rastafari!
