I'm like a lion in the morning - when he rises
I'm like a lion in the morning - when he rises
I'm like a lion in the morning - when he rises
Like a lion in the dawning - when he rises

Say have you ever met, a roaring lion yet?
Have you ever seen when the Master is getting vex?
He said: Keep away from the dark we know who you are
They try to hurt Jah lion, it a go hot like fire

In the morning - when he rises
I'm like a lion in the morning - so when he rise
I'm like a lion in the morning - when he rises
Like a lion in the dawning - when he rise, rise

So each to teach his own
So don't you go where the lion roam
Don't you provoke, don't you take any lion for joke

Why must a cub suffer
The road will only be rougher
So bring Jah children together
So that we won't suffer

In the morning - when he rise
Like a lion in the morning - when he rise
Like a lion in the morning - when he rises
Like a lion in the morning - when he rise
Take me to the bridge!

Holy Mount Zion
Holy Mount Zion
That's the jungle of the lion
I tell you.. huh! The higher lion

(..)

Remember who is king of the jungle
He keeps I and I strong right through, ooh
So give praises in the morning
While Jah sun is dawning
When the lion starts roaring
The wicked system dissolving

In the morning - when he rises
Like a lion in the morning - when he rise
Like a lion in the morning - when he
So when he rises, in the morning, when he rise
Like a lion in the morning
Like a lion in the dawning
Like a lion in the morning
Like a lion in the dawn

Wicked system dissolving
Babylon system dissolving
Babylon system..
