Låttexter: Buju Banton. Destiny.

The rich man's wealth is in the city
Destruction of the poor is his poverty
Destruction of your soul is vanity

Do you hear?
I and I, I wanna rule my destiny
I and I, I wanna rule my destiny

Destiny, mama look from when you call me
Destiny, mama look from when you calling
I wanna rule my destiny
Yeah, yeah, oh, help I please, Jah Jah, mek mi rule

I've been blessed I've been touch, I love Jah so much
They keep fighting me I'm not giving up
May the realms of Zion fill my spiritual cup
Wisdom overstanding can never be too much
Give I protection Day and night

Destiny, mama look from when you call me
Destiny, mama look from when you calling
I wanna rule my destiny
Yeah, yeah, oh, help I please, Jah Jah, mek mi rule

Cast away their cords from us
You have them in the region in the valley of decision
Restraining the heathen with a rod of iron
You know not the destiny of a next man
Why hold him set him free too long

My destination is homeward bound
Though force try to hold I down
Breaking chains has become the norm
I know I must get through no matter what a gwaan
