Lyrics
Imagine, if Marcus Garvey was the youths dem example What the future would be promising Imagine if Haile was the teacher and the scriptures were speeches To prepare them for the journey to begin A new perspective on history to enlighten the mystery Immediately before it seeps in An opportunity, for unity Each one must teach one the neighbour's little yout Is your son your daughter your sister your brother A part of who you must become In the event, of revolution Imagine if initiation was a part of the process To teach the youths dem discipline Imagine how learning would be heightened by a positive example By the ones to whom the youths dem listening Integrity and humility were a given The standard by which we'd be living Like one righteous militant community In unity Each one must teach one the neighbor's little yout Is your son your daughter your sister your brother A part of who you must become In the event, of revolution No need to speak specifics there are those who breed hatred To keep those together apart But remember that justice is real living judgment Like cancer you can plant in your own heart So when it's hot on the mission even those who lack vision Can confidently trust in the youth If we arm them with the truth Strong and sturdy from the root Each one must teach one the neighbor's little yout Is your son your daughter your sister your brother A part of who you must become In the event, of revolution For they are who we will become In the event Of revolution The solid basis for all lies in education. It is education, which allows people to live together, and makes them avoid the pitfalls of immorality, and induces respect “for the law. Truly, the attainment of these high aims is based on education. The helping of people to live together to avoid indulgence immorality and lawlessness. To command and to be commanded is the fruit of education and unity and confidence is the result. Education of the youth is the surest guarantee for a better life. From truth alone are born liberty and only an educated people can consider itself really free and master of it's fate.” - HIM Haile Selassie I Each one must teach one
