Anti-Establishment
Iya Terra Lyrics

We are the Anti-establishment, called the devil's advocate
We reject the established system and oppose it openly

Selassie I the King and there is nothing coming after him
We believe that Selassie I is the ultimate leader and nothing will surpass him

Burn them wicked management
We want to destroy corrupt leadership and management

Rastafari handle it
We rely on Rastafarian culture to deal with the problems at hand

Judgement day a calling and the wicked haffi answer it
The day of reckoning is coming and the evil-doers will have to answer for their deeds

Be careful of the bridges that you burn
Be cautious when ending relationships because it can have consequences in the future

And the bridges that you trod on
Be mindful of the paths you take as you navigate through life

Circle of friends and every shoulder that you cry
Lean on your friends and loved ones during tough times

Yes, mi Lion. Fire burning hot now in a Babylon
We are angry and passionate about the problems in Babylon (a metaphor for oppressive society)

Cause we are moving forward to Mt. Zion
We are working towards a better place free from oppression and corruption

Yes we a go burn them capitalism
We want to destroy capitalism and the corrupt power structures it creates

Most corrupt in a political system
The political system is the most corrupt among all the institutions in society

Yes we a go burn them false education.
We reject fake education that doesn't contribute to the betterment of society

What do they teach them and watch the youths them all listen (Aye)
We question what society is teaching the younger generation and how it's affecting them

I see them wars them spreading out across the land
We observe that wars are breaking out and contributing to instability in many parts of the world

Sent by America into the motherland
America is responsible for spreading war and instability into other parts of the world

Poor people locked up in a mental prison
Poor people are trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty and exploitation

They will call it freedom inna this here Babylon
Society may call this freedom, but it's still systems of oppression and exploitation

See Babylon will call you a criminal
Society will label you a criminal if you challenge their corrupt systems

For burning up the herbs them medicinal
Even if you use medicinal herbs, society may still see you as a criminal

But everything them do a hypocritical
Society is full of hypocrisy even if they try to claim otherwise

We need to show them Jah Love, Jah Love is unconditional
We want to spread love and positivity with no conditions attached

Mr. Moneyman in your business suit
We are talking to corporate businessmen who prioritize money over everything else

Are ya satisfied with the things you do?
Do you truly believe what you're doing is moral and just?

And how much love can them dollars buy for you?
Money can't buy genuine love and human connection

And did you put your dreams in a briefcase too?
Have you given up on your dreams in pursuit of money and power?

I live for passion over profit
I prioritize doing what I love rather than chasing after money

No money in my pocket
I may not have a lot of money, but I'm still happy and fulfilled

But my dreams them never stop
My passion and dreams keep me going even if I don't have a lot of money

Even when Babylon a squash
Even when everything seems to be going wrong in society (Babylon), I don't give up

Stage show me a rock
I'm a performer and I give it my all on stage

'Pon my head them a lock
People are paying attention to me and my message

IYA TERRA to the top
Iya Terra (the band) will continue to rise and succeed

That's why we are the Anti- Anti- Anti-Establishment Anti-organization...
We are strongly opposed to the establishment and all its corrupt systems

...Organization of Babylon!
All the institutions in society that contribute to oppression and corruption are part of the organization of Babylon
