Inna di east inna di west inna di north and di south

Tek di natural tings dem weh come from di earth

And mi natural culture weh mi got from birth

Put seeds together mek di people get perch

Who say di black woman curse?


[Chorus]

Pull dem resources together

Di ghetto yutes bless run go tell dem now

Black woman she a' di best, tell dem now

Di yutes dem get intellect run go tell dem now

Hail King Selassie, we nah bow

Corruption, wicked people fi 'low


[Outro]

Tell dem go pull di resources together

Promote more love inna di place fi mek it better, aye

Pull dem resources together

Heavy like a led and yet it light like a feather, aye

Pull dem resources together

Promote more love inna di place fi mek it better, woi

Pull dem resources together

Tek care of yuh sister don't diss yuh brother, aye
