See dem fake leaders
In the place of power they sit from religion to politics
They riding the wave of fear starting fires they don’t care
Making enemies out of friends killing thousands hundreds and tens
If only they could lead the world to peace and prosperity

See dem fake leaders
Now let me explain it real quick cause the system full of them tricks
And there is something you just can’t miss no matter what you think your fighting for
To make rich those who profit from war look what they’re doing to us people
If only they could lead the world to love and unity

Now I have seen where we will be and what’s good for all of humanity
not ruled by doctrines of supremacy or ideologies of bigotry
some people live in their bubbles some people live behind their walls
some people taken for granted some people taken advantage of

Now we will have to lead the world to love and unity
Yea we will have to lead right now ya’ll

Cause dem fake leaders
In the place of power they sit from religion to politics
Riding a wave of fear starting fires they don’t care
Making enemies out of friends killing thousands hundreds and tens
If only they could lead the world to peace and prosperity

Rebellion rises rebellion rises everywhere I go rebellion rises

Walks of life lets stand together dance all night with each other
Love is its weakness the system I protest
and we are its biggest threat the plague of consciousness

Rebellion rises the level is rising rebellion rises the level is rising
everywhere I go everywhere we go rebellion rises

Jah call up on all people to reject the principles of hate
and rebel against those doctrines and the violence that they create
they say time changes everything but we change times

Rebellion rises the level is rising rebellion rises the level is rising
everywhere I go everywhere we go rebellion rises

This is the age of awareness oh sooth my soul it’s so restless
turning the page to see what’s next and find us a way to pass this test
so I would a never treat you cruel we just can’t keep living by those rules
so come on people don’t be fooled

Walks of life lets jam together dance all night with each other
Love is its weakness the system we protest
and we are its biggest threat the wave of consciousness

Rebellion rises the level is rising rebellion rises the level is rising
everywhere I go everywhere we go rebellion rises
Rebellion rises every city the level is rising rebellion rises every country

the level is rising everywhere I go everywhere we go rebellion rises everywhere we go Rebellion rises and it grow and it grow and it grow and it grow the level is rising

everywhere I go everywhere we go everywhere we go
