Bob Marley

"Until the philosophy which holds one race, Superior and another inferior, Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, Everywhere is war, me say war. That until there are no longer first class, And second class citizens of any nation, Until the colour of a man's skin, Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes, Me say war. That until the basic human rights are equally, Guaranteed to all, without regard to race, Dis a war..."

"That until that day, The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, Rule of international morality, Will remain in but a fleeting illusion, To be pursued, but never attained, Now everywhere is war, war..."

"War"
by Bob Marley

What life has taught me
I would like to share with
Those who want to learn...

Until the philosophy which hold one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war

That until there are no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war

That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to race
Dis a war

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be persued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war

War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war

And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory

Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
