The Gladiators


I had a vision last night  
That I was walking on a street of pure gold  
This street that I saw  
Is where I and I should have been  
So why don't we stand up and fight for our rights  
Dreadlocks the time is now  
Stand up fight for your rights  
Or you ain't gonna get your culture man  
Roots natty, don't give up - hold on 

If I am wrong, be not afraid to say so  
Is there any difference between the black and white?  
We are all of one skin - same blood , same soul  
But there are some who think dreadlocks don't count  

Dreadlocks the time is now...  

NOTE: This song was later to be re-cut as "Dreadlocks, The Time Is Now" on "Proverbial Reggae"
