(Yoo) a Daddy Rings, Gentleman and a Barrington Levy.

Yeah, wish it about never watch we 'round the clock,
Wondering when we gonna launch an attack.
Whoah, whoah, whoah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

No powers gonna hold us down,
Not even dem pagan sound.

You'll never see we wearing a frown (wearing a frown).

No powers gonna hold us down,
Not even dem pagan sound.
No powers gonna hold us down,
You'll never see we wearing a frown (wearing a frown).

I've been chanting Jah powers from morning,
Truths and rights I man keep performing.
I hear the Babylon bell how it alarming,
Dem see a righteous ghetto youth and ready fi swarm him.
Dem shoulda overstand the power whe Jah storm bring (oh yes),
When it blow the whole a dem haffi go calm king.
Long time we did a issue 'bout the warning,
We ago hold Lucifer and disarm him.

Hey Barrington, wha gwaan yu know?
I know, Jah will always be there (never leave my side, you know).
And I know, He is everywhere (it will make sense fi heart),
Without Jah, where would I be?
'Cause He is the one for me, you see.

No powers gonna hold us down (noo),
Not even dem pagan sound.
No powers gonna hold us down,
Not even dem pagan sound (pagan sound).

Not even dem pagan sound.
No powers gonna hold us down,
Ey, a what at them man, Daddy Rings..

Dem think we fool but we tell dem seh we not,
Caan make no wolf come invate the flag,
Nuh get caught inna no booby trap,
I and I a royal Natty Dreadlock.

Well as the sun shine and the wind blow.
(That's how I know, that's how I know)
I take a look through, my window.
(That's how I know, that's how I know)
If you nuh know the truth yourself, you are deceiving,
Trumpet a sound and I man is leaving.
Higher ground that is where I am going,
Too bless to stress, can't stop me from growing.

No powers gonna hold us down,
Not even dem pagan sound.
No powers gonna hold us down,
You'll never see we wearing a frown (wearing a frown).

Hey, sing it out Barrington Levy!
I know, Jah will always be there (always and forever).
And I know, He is everywhere (everywhere).
Without Jah, where would I be?
'Cause He is the one, for me, you see.

No powers gonna hold us down (oh no),
Not even dem pagan sound.
No powers gonna hold us down (oh no),

No powers gonna hold us down (oh no),
You never see I wearing a frown.
No powers gonna hold us down,
Not even dem pagan sound (pagan sound).
