Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
And if you don't forgive
How do you expect to be forgiven
For the many wrongs, of which you have done
Causing so many people, not to have no fun, ay
Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
Even on a daily basis, pure tribal conflict
Sometimes for a vial of crack
Another time it's a criminal act
Can't you see there is something lacking?
What about your black, black love
That is coming from afar
Can't afford to lose out now, down inna Babylon
Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
Even on a daily basis, pure tribal conflict
Sometimes for a vial of crack
Another time it's a criminal act
Can't you see there is something lacking?
What about your black, black love
That is coming from afar
Can't afford to lose out now, down inna Babylon
Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
Live and give, live and give, live and give
Live and give, live and give, live and give, the best of your ability
The best of your ability
Live and give, live and give, live and give
Live and give, live and give, live and give
Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
Even on a daily basis, pure tribal conflict
Sometimes for a vial of crack
Another time it's a criminal act
Can't you see there is something lacking?
What about your black, black love
That is coming from afar
Can't afford to lose out now, down inna Babylon
Live and give, the best of your ability
Live and forgive, your brothers and your sisters
Live and give, live and give, live and give
Live and give, live and give, live and give, the best of your ability
The best of your ability
Live and give, live and give, live and give
