Though force try to hold I down
Wisdom overstanding can never be too much
Breaking chains has become the norm
Cast away their cords from us
Destiny, mama look from when you calling
I and I, I wanna rule my destiny
I've been blessed I've been touch, I love Jah so much
I and I, I wanna rule my destiny
Destiny, mama look from when you call me
You know not the destiny of a next man
I wanna rule my destiny
Do you hear?
Why hold him set him free too long
I wanna rule my destiny
Destruction of your soul is vanity
Destiny, mama look from when you call me
You have them in the region in the valley of decision
Destiny, mama look from when you calling
Give I protection Day and night
Restraining the heathen with a rod of iron
Yeah, yeah, oh, help I please, Jah Jah, mek mi rule
May the realms of Zion fill my spiritual cup
They keep fighting me I'm not giving up
My destination is homeward bound
Yeah, yeah, oh, help I please, Jah Jah, mek mi rule
