Love & Respect
Iya Terra Lyrics

I said now children of the sun rise up,
Calling upon those who embrace positivity and higher energy to awaken and take action

Now is your time.
This is the moment to make a difference

Don't you get caught up
Don't get stuck in negativity or distractions

And don't you ever fall in line.
Do not conform or succumb to negative influence

Higher vibe is rising, riding swift into the night.
Positive energy is growing and spreading quickly

Long time coming me said now long time.
This positive change has been long-awaited

Babylon is confused with confusion over using
The current society is disorganized and misguided

Overruling and polluting the earth, well
Destruction of the natural world by humans is rampant

We have to use the ancient wisdom given unto every human,
Humanity needs to tap into the knowledge passed down through generations

Man and Woman from the day of your birth.
This wisdom is innate and present within everyone

Now, because there is no force strong enough to destroy love
Love is indestructible

And the more that them push and them pull
The more people try to divide us

The more that they unite us
The more we will come together to combat negativity

That's why it's strictly Love & Respect
Emphasizing the importance of love and respect in all interactions

Is all that I and I know
This is the fundamental belief of the singer

So no time for your bad bad vibes when I and I a slide through
Negativity has no place in the artist's life

Wanananah Wah wah wai!
An exclamation of positivity and energy

Open up your mind to the love and the light.
Encouraging listeners to be open to positive and loving experiences

Yes, we are sentient beings
Acknowledging that humans have consciousness and awareness

Giving strength to defend all defenseless beings
Humans have the power to protect those who cannot protect themselves

Know yourself and know just what compassion means
Understanding oneself and having empathy for others is crucial

Say trod lightly
Encouraging people to live in harmony and balance with the environment

No need for senseless killing, Oh Jah have mercy.
Rejecting unnecessary violence and asking for divine mercy

An industry of slavery, the food upon your plate you eat
Highlighting the exploitation and abuse within the food industry

Was brought to you by suffering. You're body in disharmony.
The current way of living is causing harm to both animals and humans

Ital it is vital to survive a life cycle, earth cycle.
Embracing a life of natural and sustainable living is necessary for survival

The cycle come again
The life cycle and the earth's cycle are continuous

Because there is no fire
Nothing is strong enough to completely eradicate love and positivity

That can burn us down
Love and positivity are resilient

But if we stand, stand together
Coming together in unity is the key to overcoming negativity

Righteousness is coming around again
Positive change is on the horizon

Open up your eyes
Encouraging people to see the world with clarity and awareness

Open up your soul, you will find love
Love is present within oneself

Love & Respect & Mercy
The fundamental values of the song
