“Keep on struggling on
Don't give up the fight [Verse 3: Peter Tosh] We're sick and tired of your ism and schism game Die and go to heaven in Jesus' name, Lord We know and we understand Almighty God is a living man You can fool some people sometimes But you can't fool all the people all the time So now we see the light (What you gonna do?)
We going to stand up for our right (Yeah, yeah, yeah) So you'd better… [Chorus: The Wailers] Get Up, Stand Up, stand up for your right Get Up, Stand Up, don't give up the fight” source
