Steel Pulse - Worth His Weight In Gold (Rally Round)

Hear no!
Rally round the flag,
Rally round the red, gold, black and green!
Rally round the,
Rally round the red, gold, black and green!

Marcus say, sir Marcus say:
"Red for the blood,
That flowed like the river."
Marcus say, sir Marcus say:
"Green for the land, Africa!"
Marcus say:
"Yellow for the gold that they stole."
Marcus say:
"Black for the people, it was looted from."

They took us away captivity, captivity;
Required from us a song.
Right now man say: repatriate, repatriate!
I and I patience have now long time gone;
Father's mothers sons, daughters every one.
Four hundred million strong.
Ethiopia stretch forth her hands,
Closer to God we Africans, closer to God we can!
In our hearts is Mount Zion, now you know seek the Lion.
In our hearts is Mount Zion, now you know, now you know.
How can we sing in a strange land?
Don't want to sing in a strange land.
Liberation true democracy, one God, one aim: one destiny!

Rally round the,
Rally round the red for the blood, that flowed like the river.
Rally round the,
Rally round the green for the land, Africa!
Rally round the,
Rally round the yellow for the gold that they stole.
Rally round the, rally round, a we the black people!

Remember when, we used to dress like kings,
Conqueror of land, conqueror of seas.
Civilization far moved from caves, oppressor man live deh.
I curse that day, the day they made us slaves, I say!
How can we sing in a strange land?
Don't want to sing in a strange land, no, no, no!
Liberation true democracy, one God one aim: one destiny!

Rally round the flag,
Rally round the red, gold, black and green!
Rally round the,
Rally round the red, gold, black and green!

Rally round the flag,
Red gold black and green.
A bright shining star - Africa
Catch star liner right now - Africa
A history no more a mystery - Africa
Respect and authority - Africa
Climb ye the heights of humanity - Africa
Come rally, come rally, rally come, rally..
