Verse 1:
The Eastern Mountain, yeh
You can reach if you give it all your vibes
Like the water from the fountain, yow
I tell you do good that's all there is to life.
Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach if you really decide
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Tell you do good that's there is to life.
I will let no one stop you from beeing strong
Fi earth likewise a fi yuh opinion
What's your feelings
Check yourself know yuh position
When you flatter you dem with the flattering tongue
The enemies mob the heathens come inna gang
Emperor Selassie I is the protection
Years of servility, tears drop like bombs
Night and day never free without dawn
Check life: well a pure slavery deh gwaan
So mi come fi tell the people that the child was born.
Him a the government, Selassie I the Ethiopian
Strike to the devil with the education:
Proper, literate, to uplift the nation
Life: Thought: I hurt. I belong.
Chorus
Verse 2:
The Eastern Mountain, yow
You can reach if you give it all your vibes
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Wanting to see what's on the other side
Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach only if you decide
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Rasta man nah tell the ghetto youths them survive
Here the youths them crying
They were beingpushed aside
Only the best was proof enough to pulverise
The hopes, the understanding
That we still nah go slide
Children come together Rasta Far I deh rise
Better fly we together I survive
People of the colour must always be wise
From the depth of the valley up onto the sky
Even to be lucky police stop all the crimes
We nuh want nuh confusion round Rasta Far I
We bun the anxiety courageously smile, yow
Babylon we know you profile
Chorus
Verse 3:
The Eastern Mountain, yow
You can reach only if you got the vibes
Like the rivers and the fountain, yow
I tell you do good and hail Rasta Far I
Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach if you really decide
Like the rivers and the fountain, yow
Tell you be good and open up all your eyes
Oh, oh surely the omnipotent
Yours truly how Ras recommend
Tell Selassie King from the Ishent
Let the power of the empress guide the resident
Oh, the people from the south shall deal
With another, nah tell yu no doubt.
Commune with the western praises and shout
The eastern marching thy route
CHORUS
