There was good and evil...
We choose good

Isaiah 7:15 - Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.

The rich man's wealth is in the city
Destruction of the poor is his poverty

Proverbs 10:15 - The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty.
Proverbs 18:11 - The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.

Destruction of your soul is vanity

I and I, I wanna rule my destiny
I and I, I wanna rule my destiny

Destiny, Mama look from when you call me

I've been blessed I've been touch
I love Jah so much
They keep fighting me I'm not giving up
May the realms of Zion fill my spiritual cup
Wisdom overstanding must never be too much

 

Give I protection day and night
From even the pestilence that walketh at daylight

Destiny, Mama look from when you calling
I wanna rule my destiny
Yeah, oh help I please
Jah Jah mek mi rule my destiny

You know not the destiny of a next man
Why hold him, set him free for too long
I, I wanna rule my destiny
I and I really wanna rule my destiny
Hear me call, call, call

Destiny, Mama look from when you calling
Destiny, Mama look from when you calling
I wanna rule my destiny
Oh, hey, help I please
I wanna rule my destiny

My destination is homeward bound
Though forces try hold I down
Breaking chains has become the norm
I know I must get through no matter what a gwan

Destiny, Mama look from when you calling
Destiny, Mama look from when you calling
I wanna rule my destiny
Lord, and I tell you once more

The rich man's wealth is in the city
Destruction of the poor is our poverty
Destruction of our soul is vanity
Do you hear? Do you hear?
Destiny... destiny...
