Lyrics

TAKE PRIDE

You are powerful, you are mighty
Don't let the people deceive you
You turn your back and they'll leave you in the cold
You are beautiful, you are pretty
Don't let the business misuse use
They'll cut you up and leave you when you're old

Take pride in your features
Take pride in yourself
'Cause only JAH knows the future
And he will be your guide
JAH is on your side

You are intelligent, you are smart
Don't let your teachers deceive you
Make you feel you're nothing, but a fool (You're not a fool!)
You are courageous, you are brave
Don't let the system demean you
In times of war they'll use you like a tool

Take pride in your culture
Take pride in your history
'Cause only JAH knows your destiny
And he'll be your guide
JAH is on your side

God is on your side
Onyame is on your side
Time is on your side
JAH is on your side
