Revolutionary people, with revolutionary minds, putting everything in line Revolutionary people, its crucial everytime, but we're doing just fine Why should I bow to your bondage When Rastafari done set I free Who made you a judge, who gave you jurisdiction over me And why should I lower my standards or change my character When the core of my heart cries out for militancy So you can call your kings horses and call your kings men and tell them we just won't bend Call your kings masses and all your kings friends, call the whole a dem Just can't hide, everybody knows Im one of them Revolutionary people, with revolutionary minds, putting everything in line Revolutionary people, its crucial everytime, but we're doing just fine Now we don't think like they do not everything you hear is true They wanna flip and spin us around They trying to play us the fool But we stand up for the right thing We got to keep our faith and hopes Scare tactics not working that's just not the way it goes All we stand on is the truth and we have to defend it for our youths Revolutionary people, with revolutionary minds, putting everything in line Revolutionary people, its crucial everytime, but we're doing just fine Just can't hide, everybody knows Im one of them Tired of your slogans, nuh bother wid yu come and bribes We're on a different program, fighting on the militant side All we stand on is the truth, We got to defend it for our youth Everybody knows we're one of those

I gave her back the key to her front door 'cause it seems she didn't care about me anymore I gave her all the love I had and she spilled it, yeah So I packed my things into a shopping bag and decided to quit But Lord know that I don't wanna be lonely tonight I don't wanna be lonely tonight I said I don't wanna be lonely tonight But I would rather to be lonely than to live a dirty lie All of those things that we've been through Used to make me happy, now make me blue I didn't believe the things that I've heard, no But now I've seen it with my own eyes I know action speak louder than word But Lord know that I don't wanna be lonely tonight Granny know that I don't wanna be lonely tonight I mean it, yes I mean it I don't wanna be lonely tonight But I would rather to be lonely than to live a dirty lie I'm so sorry we been through I'm so fed up I don't know what to do All of those things that we've been through Used to make me happy, now make me blue I didn't believe the things that I've heard, no But now I've seen it with my own eyes I know action speak louder than word But Lord knows that I don't wanna be lonely tonight Granny know that I don't wanna be lonely tonight I mean it, yes I mean it I don't wanna be lonely tonight But I would rather to be lonely than to live a dirty lie Don't wanna be lonely Don't wanna be lonely tonight, don't wanna be lonely tonight.

(Bunny) We don't need another bitter day Just take a look around, there's not much more to say Many a times I know you just can't take no more Feeling as if the very end is knocking at your door (Tessanne) And if you feel tears building in your eyes Don't worry cause you know I'm right there by your side And if you stay, stay by my side There's nothing in this world we could not brush aside Chorus I'll be the anchor in the storm I'll be the arms to keep you warm Together we can ride the tide So stay by my side (Bunny) I'm not around a lot I know Don't let it rest upon your mind and even dull your glow The spirit survives you don't have to fear Though you can't look upon my face You know I'm always there (Tessanne) And if you feel tears burning in your eyes Don't worry cause you got me right there by your side And by your side is where I'll be Stay with me even when there's worries and disharmony Chorus (Bunny & Tessanne) So if you feel tears building in your eyes Don't worry you know I'm right there by your side There may be times you feel so secure until someone You trust says your not welcome any more By my side, By my side, By my side Chorus
