Bob Marley - War Lyrics






Until the philosophy which hold one race superior
And another
Inferior
Is finally
And permanently
Discredited
And abandoned -
Everywhere is war -
Me say war.

That until there no longer
First class and second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes -
Me say war.

That until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all,
Without regard to race -
Dis a war.

That until that day
The dream of lasting peace,
World citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,
But never attained -
Now everywhere is war - war.

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
that hold our brothers in Angola,
In Mozambique,
South Africa
Sub-human bondage
Have been toppled,
Utterly destroyed -
Well, everywhere is war -
Me say war.

War in the east,
War in the west,
War up north,
War down south -
War - war -
Rumours of war.
And until that day,
The African continent
Will not know peace,
We Africans will fight - we find it necessary -
And we know we shall win
As we are confident
In the victory

Of good over evil -
Good over evil, yeah!
Good over evil -
Good over evil, yeah!
Good over evil -
Good over evil, yeah! [fadeout]

    The Irony is this generation of Africans today consider themselves the Superior Race. Anthony Joshua slipped up. He represents many.

  10. g.... r....

    Not just songs anymore...There hymns

  11. F.... T....

    Bob also used and adapted many passages from the bible in his songs. He was baptised a Christian. Not many want tho hear or acknowledge this.

    The words of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selasie forever immortalized in song by The Great Bob Marley. If the world would only listen.

  19. M.... S....

  20. M.... S....

    I remember my Mama getting this album. I remember my Mama going to see him preach. I remember when the civil rights movement had traction.
    Reperations Now.

  37. R.... M....

    Am a Kenyan but am here crying my soul out cause of the Nigerians and blacks that are getting killed by South Africans...

    R.... M....

    Sweet Rose, no foreigner was killed in the South African Xenophobic conflicts, I should know I am here on the ground in sunny South Africa, The only person killed was a taxi driver who confronted a group of foreign men who was selling drugs to people. This sparked the latest attack on foreign owned business in Pretoria and Johannesburg inner-cities. We were all concerned and now relieved to see the situation has normalised. Numerous arrest has been made and we are now busy restoring our relationships and assuring people that the support of South African people will always be there.

  43. P.... ....

    BIG choonage. Lyrics are DUTTY & TRUE...

  44. L.... O....

    Vim porquê estava lendo sobre a cultura rasta e sua origem. E soube que esta musica tem base no discurso do Ras Tafari em 1936

  45. l.... ....

    🇵🇦🇵🇦⚡⚡

  46. R.... C....

    FIGHT THE REAL ENEMY!!!!

  47. B.... T....

    Still war,war,war...

  48. B.... J....

    When I went to see "Marley" at the movies, I cried the entire last 30 minutes of the documentary. The most heartbreaking moment was seeing Bob reduced to bare 90 pounds or less, and without his beautiful dreadlocks, he was going through Chemo at the time. The man left a footprint of LOVE that will never and ever be washed away. Spread the LOVE !

  49. C.... C....

    This song great, love the lyrics.....

  50. B.... P....

    2019 we all at war soon :/

  51. C.... K....

    Love from Angola, we stil love Bob at to the end. King Marley

  52. J.... K....

    Keep on resisting the cowards who fight with a war machine, against those who fight with a heart

  53. b.... s....

    It's a spiritual war.

  54. J.... /....

    *FIGHT THE REAL ENEMY*

  59. M.... &....

    “Until the color of a mans skin is no more significance than the color of his eyes......”

    One of my favorites by Bob

  60. C.... B....

    His music should be taught to all the children. Everywhere.

  61. D.... B....

    Grandson's alternative rock cover brought me here.

  62. J.... S....

    Algum brasileiro em 2019?

  63. G.... B....

    A Masterpiece... Bob you are so missed
    This song makes me cry I am so passionate for REAL Liberation.

  64. A.... D....

    I love it he is Jamaican

  65. D.... B....

    War has little to do with race. Still a good song though.

  66. b.... j....

    Not much has changed Bob R.I.P.

  67. C.... M....

    This should be used in school as a base for a human right class!!
    These words are to valuable not to be shown to are youth!!

  68. W.... M....

    Alguem ai fala português

  69. J.... L....

    Solve My Riddle:
    Is Spartacus still a warrior? God lives forever. God knows, but, what then is the point of this riddle?

  70. t.... a....

    Damn Grandson did a cover of this song and it's not bad

  71. K.... R....

    2019 sigue sonando el 👑 robert nesta marley.

  72. F.... ....

    War is dollars.

  73. O.... B....

    There are some who can see the future, not like sci-fi/fantasy non-sense but see that human nature will forever dictate how humans live and treat each other, so until human beings are ready to change, the way we treat each other won't. Bob marley could see that, R.I.P Bob, you were ahead of your time, we need to follow your example and live better, ONE LOVE!!!

  74. a.... s....
