I am a rebel for real.
You got to know how I feel.
You see, I am rebel for real.

So brutalize I with music,
If it's a song with a meaning.
Chastise I with music,
If it's a cry from the heart.
There's got to be a message within the music,
To soothe the soul of the savage beast.
There's got to be a message within the music,
So the knowledge of the children will increase.

So brutalize I with music,
If it's a song with a meaning.
Chastise I with music,
If it's a cry from the heart.

Raped by those vicious antiSacons:
Drake, Peg Leg and the guy Morgan.
We don't got no mineral,
Them done nyam out we bauxite and burn down the ganja field.
But no matter what the game, the game they try to play,
We got something they could never take away.

So, brutalize I with music.
If it's a song with a meaning.
Hey Natty love music,
If it's a cry from the heart.

Marley knew he had a name,
To take reggae straight to the hall of fame.
We don't got no mineral,
Them done nyam out we bauxite and burn down the ganja field.
But no matter what game, the game you play,
We got somethin
g you can never take away.

I love music,
If it's a song with a meaning.
I love music,
If it's a cry from your heart.

It's music, it's music, it's music,
Oh, song with meaning.
It's music, it's music, it's music,
If it's a cry from your heart.

Chastise I, brutalize I,
In the name of music.

It's music, it's music, it's music,
If it's a cry from your heart.
