Now blessed is them and they
That put their trust and truth in the living Almighty
Blessed is the man, blessed is the woman
That walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly
But they put all their blessings and their praise
In the strength of the Almighty
I & I come to break down the barriers
Remove the chain from the brain
Wha me tell’em, wha me tell’em

Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break them, break them

Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down them barriers, break down the chain
Break them, break them

Fyah to Messaline and Babylon brain
Life ina Babylon is getting too vain
Dash weh the heart ache and dash weh the pain
The wickedman thinking get flush down the drain
Ride pon the road and fly ina plane
No devil worker can take mi name
Jah him a di power and Jah him a de way
No matter what the wicked a the world wan say

Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers and break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain

Bun out wickedness and bun out wicked bwoy desire
Evil vampire mek me throw dem pon the wire
Fight against the Culture run, mi hear it down the wire
Control every area, patrol every border
Drop it pon the beat cau’ this ya beat is sounding proper
Culture pon the mic is like a blazing paper
In a the old days, them use to run away from Leper
Nowadays technique make life get better
Dem have to follow me cause I & I a trendsetter
Moving too fast unuh better send me a letter
Anytime mi come, we Brother Culture getting hotter
In America them call football, soccer

Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers and break down the chain
Break down barriers and break down the chain

Break off the chain from I & I brain
Break down barriers and break down the chain

Free we have to free we have to free we have to free
Praise the Almighty, I & I we have to free
Rally round the Red and the Gold and the Green

Break down barriers, break down the chain
Break down barriers and take off the chain
Break down them barriers and break down the chain

No matter what the wicked a the world wan say

For the Lord said let there be light
And there was light
And Jah say let there be overstanding
