Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dem call fi war — mi come wid heart like thunder
Mash up silence, babylon ah blunder
Mi nah go kneel — mi rise an’ build
Kiss di pain ‘til di power distill

Love nuh soft — it ah blaze inna chest
It stand firm, wrap tight like vest
Mi arm dem strong — mi nah fold
Plant di truth weh di sun get cold

[Chorus]
Mi love like lion — brave an’ wild
Peace rebellious, warrior child
Arm wide open, voice ah flame
Dis love mash down dem Babylon game

[Verse 2]
Dem try fi wipe we, but soul cyah done
We chant freedom — riddim an’ drum
Love a fyah — hot an’ bright
It bun corruption, stand fi right

Mi love di people, mi love di soil
Mi love di youth weh dem treat like spoil
Dem fear love — ‘cause it nah bow
It hold di truth dem cyah touch now

[Bridge]
Dem fraid love weh dem cyaah buy
Di type weh rise when di night sky cry
Dis love a shield, dis love a breath
It walk through flames, it outlive death

[Chorus]
Mi love like lion — brave an’ wild
Peace rebellious, warrior child
Arm wide open, voice ah flame
Dis love mash down dem Babylon game

[Hook / Chant]
Love nah bow — (Stand tall!)
Love nah run — (Hold yuh call!)
Love bruk wall — (Rise again!)
Love live long — (Shine fi dem!)

[Outro]
If yuh want war — mi come wid grace
But mi love nah move, it nah erase
Mi nah go hate — mi nah go hide
Mi walk wid truth — and truth cyah die
