Revelation  reveals  the truth - revelation.
 (revolution, revolution, revolution - oooo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
 (revolution - oooo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
It  takes  a  revolution  (revolution) to make a solution; (doo-doo-doo-doo)
 Too much confusion (aaa-aaah), so much frustration, eh!
I  don't  wanna live in the park (live in the park);
 Can't trust no shadows after dark (shadows after dark), yeah-eh!
 So, my friend, I wish that you could see,
Like  a bird in the tree, the prisoners must be free, yeah! (free)
Never  make  a politician  (aaa-aaah) grant you a favour; (doo-doo-doo-doo)
 They will always want (aaa-aaah) to control you forever, eh! (forever, forever)
So  if  a fire make  it burn (make it burn, make it burn)
 And if a blood make ya run (make ya run, run, run),
 Rasta de 'pon top (aaa-aaah), can't you see? (doo-doo-doo-doo)
 So you can't predict the flop. Eh-eh! (doo-doo-doo-doo)
We  got  lightning  (lightning), thunder (thunder),
 brimstone (brimstone) and fire - fire (fire, fire);
 Lightning (lightning), thunder (thunder),
 brr-brimstone (brimstone) and fire - fiyah - fire - fiyah! (fire, fire)
Kill,  cramp  and  paralyze all weak at conception; (aaa-aaah, doo-doo-doo-doo)
 Wipe them out of creation (creation), yeah-eah! (creation)
 Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! (creation)
 Wa-Jah, Jah, Jah! (creation)
Oh!  Let  i'es  is  i'es (i'es), in i'es is black (i'es),
 In i'es is red (i'es), in i'es is dread.
 Let righteousness cover the earth
 Like the water (aaa-aaah) cover the sea, yeah! Yeah!
Lightning (lightning),  doo-doo-doo (thunder),
 doo-doo-doo (brimstone), doo-doo-doo (fire, fire);
 A lightning (lightning), thunder (thunder),
 brimstone (brimstone) and fire // fade //
 And that's it folks, just listen the song is very, very easy!!!
 Peace, Jah bless U all of U!
