I can move a crowd with one microphone
Test the effectiveness against your gas and batons
And you come with talk about terrorism
Like it’s something that you protect us from
How dare you use our fear as a weapon
Behind the reinforced walls of your pentagon
Watching me stealthily on a monitor screen
With your finger fixed poised above the button
And you promote selfishness and greed
As the way that our people should be
But you know that what we really need
Just a little bit of peace
In this world full of hate and disease
full of hate and disease
When I was just a young boy living day to day
So forlorn about world’s degenerating state
The only thing that it seemed could keep me feeling sane
Was the sweet reggae coming through
It taught me about, melody and rhythm
Patience and grace to keep me feeling lifted
In tune with the universal rhythm
And now I pass it on to you
My brothers and sisters
But you promote selfishness and greed
As the way that our people should be
When you know that what we really need
Just a little bit of peace
In this world full of hate and disease
And I can move a crowd with one microphone
Without ever dropping bombs or firing one gun
And I can make a rhyme that will infiltrate your soul
Using nothing but my microphone
With just my microphone
With just a microphone
