Overall Meaning

In "Conquer All," Anthony B pays tribute to the late Emperor Haile Selassie I, who he considers the "conqueror of all conquerors" and the "protector" and "life giver" of his people. The song is a testament to the boundless power of Selassie I, who according to the lyrics, conquered everything from poverty and greed to vanity and even Mussolini.


The chorus repeated throughout the song proudly declares "Emperor Selassie I conquer all," while the verses highlight the many things he has conquered, such as wealth and poverty, fame and vanity, and even death itself. The lyrics also take shots at Babylon and Satan, suggesting that with Selassie's power, they have fallen and have no chance against him.


Overall, "Conquer All" is an ode to Selassie I's power and strength, and a call to action for his followers to continue to praise and honor him. The song's lyrics are full of references to Rastafarian beliefs, including the belief in Selassie I as a divine figure and the rejection of Babylonian society and values.
