lyrics

(Give thanks and praise, to Emperor Selassie I the First. Jah!)
Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity
'Cause Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of depravity
Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity
Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of catastrophe

You ask me: How can I believe in things I don’t see
Put myself under Jah and still say that I’m free
Adopt a philosophy of positivity
I say: Because I free myself from babylon captivity
I just wanna sing and live and dance
Just to make it clear: This ain’t no offense
But I can feel Jah love, I can feel Jah love
I can feel Jahjah loving from above
I won’t judge you for what you do, or what you believe in
Have a good life and get a good feeling
Love who you love and live how you wanna live
But let me love who I love and live

Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity!
'Cause Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of depravity
Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity
Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of catastrophe

I know I'm just a young white youth from Berlin
And I don’t mind the color of your skin
To me it doesn’t matter more than if you’re fat or slim
But if you start being racist it starts being a sin
If we really want worldwide complete equality
White and rich: give up your privilege
Post-colonialism’s killing Africa today
And only if that stops InI can live free
Keep di fire, keep di fire, keep di fire burning
Worldwide capitalists dem a never learning
All dem care about is what dem earning
We need a revolution so we haffi keep it burning
Keep di fire, keep di fire, keep di fire burning
Worldwide capitalists dem a never learning
All dem care about is what dem earning
So we haffi keep it burning

Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity
'Cause Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of depravity
Rasta is I livity, I philosophy and help me keep I sanity
Rasta means love and positivity in a world full of catastrophe

Oh Rasta is I livity
