Confident yourself, don't deny
All things are possible because of King Selassie I
I share my food with the poor and you know why
I want to see them go to school for sure, yes I
Simple life, so be dignified
Spit in the sky, it's gonna fall in your eye
Love Jah you live, if you hate Jah you go die

Jah knows best, Jah knows best

Rastafari is blessed
Nevertheless, nevertheless

Live and love, it is so significant
Speak of matters up
To the point of relevance
Rastafari in your good deliverance
Before you kill your brother
Why won't you turn?
And don't be so ignorant
Rastafari got this whole wide world in his arms

Jah knows best, Jah knows best

All these blessings, Jah is the one to send it
Give you brother a shoulder, make money so we spend it
Can be controversial, still we comprehend it
Love life, we livin' it never endin'
Don't fight, so catch no blemish
Don't be like those heathens
'Cause Jah won't defend it
Repatriate to Mama Africa, the West shall perish

Jah knows best, Jah knows best

Nevertheless, nevertheless
Black people you blessed

Jah knows best, Jah knows best
Jah knows best, will guide you
Every step, every move you make

All the righteousness has God
He make in his likeness, the conquering lion
Virtuous, courageous, hail Mount Zion
He comes to lead us, to the Motherland
Wash your hands so your heart must be clean
Come and help me float red, gold and green
With all gratitude, we've got the attitude
To stand and lead these human beings

'Cause Jah knows best
Jah knows best, Jah knows best
Nevertheless, nevertheless
My people you blessed
Black people you blessed

Jah knows best, Jah knows best
Jah knows best, nevertheless

Jah, Rastafari
