Rastaman is a symbol of reality
Where there 's reality, there is dignity
Look at the Rastaman
He is the true Messiah
Dread knotty dread, we a Congo nyah

Look at the dread on his head
Look like macca cally
You should realize dread don't deal with folly
See the dread shine bright as the morning stars
Put up bars, but you won't keep us apart, oh no
A wise head see-eth from afar, oh yes
He can tell you what is ahead of you, yes oh yes
See the Rastaman comin'
Roaring lion, dreader than dread
So you got to hail the Rastaman,
Conquering lion from the tribe of Judah

Rastaman is a symbol of reality
Where there 's reality, there is dignity
Look at the Rastaman
He is the true Messiah
Dread knotty dread, we a Congo nyah
