Prophecy Fulfill

[Intro]
So many years in prison, without any reason
Dem tell lie and charge the man for treason
And capture his land and don't want us to live even
Hey
Well

[Chorus]
As far as my eyes can see
This is the fulfillment of prophecy
Mandela win, the africans dem free
Like a bird in the tree, hey, so let he be
Hey
As far as my eyes can see
This is a fulfillment of prophecy
Mandela win, the africans dem free
And all oppressors dem got to pay dem fee

[Verse 1]
Although Martin Luther no deh yah fi see
Malcolm X, or Marcus Garvey
The one Paul Bogle, or the Lady Nanny
If a Peter Touch, or a Bob Marley
Me know where me stand, and me know mi history
Equal rights, that's for you and for me
South Africa free, hey, so let it be
And if you agree, hey, come sing with me
Hey

Mandela win, the africans dem free
Like a bird in a tree, hey, so let he be

Capture we land and dem no waan we live even
Now a fi we time, 'cause a black people's season

No more chains and no more shackles
A pop off we wrists, and a tear of we ankles
Who arrange apartheid must get dismantled
