I had a vision last night
That I was walking on a street of pure gold
This street that I saw
Is where I and I should have been
So why don't we stand up and fight for our rights

Dreadlocks the time is now
Stand up fight for your rights
Or you ain't gonna get your culture man
Roots natty, don't give up - hold on

If I am wrong, be not afraid to say so
Is there any difference between the black and white?
We are all of one skin - same blood , same soul
But there are some who think dreadlocks don't count

Dreadlocks the time is now
