do we really have to fight

Eric Donaldson

Shooting, killing
Is now everywhere
Murder, backbitting
Dry your weeping eyes
'Cause you don't really have to cry

So do we really have to fight
To make it right?
So do we really have to fight
To make it right?

Marcus Garvey tried his best
Paul Bogle and the rest
Must all these great hero's die in vain?
While we go straight into slavery once again

Jah man, arise now!
No bodda take no prize
Let true love abide
Remember, I and I know no sin
I really grieve within me

So do we really have to fight
To make it right?
So do we really have to fight
To make it right?

So do we really have to fight
To make it right?
So do we really have to fight
To make it right?

So do we really have to fight
Fight to make it right?

Marcus Garvey got to fight!
Paul Bogle got to fight!
