Lyrics: 

Yes, di fire still burn, deep inna mi core
But no smoke fill di air, mi nah seek no war
Di lion still wake, but him learn fi lay low
Di abyss mi call home, it now start fi flow
Di silence dat taunt mi, dat scorn mi before
Now a current renewin', bringin' life evamore
Mi chart weh mi go, through di highs an di low
An di world still spin, an di harvest soon show

Power must overflow, but fi truly connect
Yuh haffi build di river's bed, so depth reflect
Power must overflow, but fi feed as it go
Wisdom channel di flood, every meadow tek glow
Life is means fi know, oh, mi teach dem fi sow
Dat's how mi bestow, dat's how di garden grow

Mi look inna dem eyes, dem still searchin' fi light
Dem still chase sugar dust, through di long, weary night
Mi remember dat hunger, dat wait fi be blessed
Dat nod to di empty, dat call it a test
She still hum in passing, mi hear di old sound
But mi nah seh no word, mi just turn to di ground
Mi nah deal in kingdoms built on rationed sight
Mi tend dem roots deep, till di branches shine bright

Power must overflow, but fi truly connect
Yuh haffi build di river's bed, so depth reflect
Power must overflow, but fi feed as it go
Wisdom channel di flood, every meadow tek glow
Life is means fi know, oh, mi teach dem fi sow
Dat's how mi bestow, dat's how di garden grow

Dem come with dem pleas, dem search fi a sign
Dem want mi fi tell dem, what good is, what's divine
Mi nah give dem no riddle, mi nah bless dem blind
Mi just show dem di shovel, di strength dem can find
See, di sun in yuh heart, it nah need no command
It just need di clear sky, an di seed in yuh hand
Yuh nah beg fi di water, yuh dig fi di spring
An mek yuh own song, mek yuh own praises sing

Power must overflow, but fi truly connect
Yuh haffi build di river's bed, so depth reflect
Power must overflow, but fi feed as it go
Wisdom channel di flood, every meadow tek glow
Life is means fi know, oh, mi teach dem fi sow
Dat's how mi bestow, dat's how di garden grow

Di current spread wider through valleys so long
It swell ova hillside, it uplift all along
It gather di voices of many as one throng
Till it meet di great ocean, weh all souls belong
Di surge ever risin', but mi learn fi direct
Every leaf, every root, every life mi protect
Mi plant fi di future, fi di dawning new height
Den reveal dem di source of dem own inner might

Gardens Beneath Which Rivers Flow
