  • This is the song for the Jamaican Football team as they entered the FIFA World Cup for the first time in 1998.
    The song is by various artists (using the name Jamaica United), starring Ziggy Marley, Buju Banton, Diana King, Shaggy, Maxi Priest, Ini Kamoze, Toots Hibbert, I-Threes, Tony Rebel, Richie Stevens, Brian Gold.
    No one has posted the lyrics for this on the internet, and I have been getting lots of requests, so lyrics below!
    Hey hey hey hey,
    Hopes are lasting higher, higher, let nothing cave away
    The expectation of a nation's like music to the ear
    Oooooo we're singing a brand new song
    Marching to a brand new beat
    Down the inside, through the palace, filling every street
    It's time to rise up
    Stand and take your place (rise up)
    Shine like the sun (rise up rise up)
    Your journey has just begun
    Rise up (rise up)
    Stand like the brave (oh yeah)
    Rule your destiny
    Be the best that you can be
    Well well well well now we start from the bottom and we reach the top of the toppa
    No matter where we go you know so nothin can stoppa
    We stand up and salute now to the yellowa the green and blacka
    I'll make you know so [?]
    The world is for your taking
    Giving up is your only crime
    I've written all the pages of history
    This is your moment this is your time, yeah
    Now we know, it's not an easy role
    3'O clock, another road block (you gotta carry it alone)
    Rise up (get up!)
    Stand and take your place
    Shine like the sun (you are just like the sun, you are just like the sun!)
    Your journey has just begun
    Rise up
    Stand like the brave (like the brave!)
    Rule your destiny
    Be the best that you can be (you can be)
    Triumph!
    There's a winner, inside you
    Just waiting to answer the call
    (Answer the call I said answer the call)
    You heard the voice (now make your choice)
    Now make the choice
    You've got to follow and start believing for you now
    Rise up
    Stand and take your place
    Shine like the sun
    Your journey has just begun
    Rise up
    Stand like the brave
    Rule your destiny
    Be the best that you can be
    Mercy, mercy, mercy
    Di boy dem in a di party party party
    Mercy mercy mercy
    Di boy dem in a di party party party
    Here comes the black and the green and the gold
    Control, control
    Giving every ting we got
    Heart, heart, heart
    [?]
    I still feel we been drained of success
    Therefore my bredrins we got to do our best
    Whether north, south, east or west
    Rise up
    Stand and take your place
    Shine like the sun
    Your journey has just begun
    Rise up
    Stand like the brave (higher and higher)
    Rule your destiny
    Be the best that you can be
    Rise up

    @hardblack101 It's Called Rise Up...it was done by a multitude of Jamaican artistes including Diana King, Maxi Priest, Ziggy Marley, Toots Hibbert, Buju Banton, Richie Stephens, and so many more that I probably don't even remember, in honor of the Reggae Boys, our football team that made it to the 98 World Cup in France.

    The sad fact about this generation of Jamaican players is that 3 of them lost their lives in car accidents: Stephen Malcolm, Peter Cargill, Winston Anglin, and Theodore Whitmore himself nearly died in an accident, he recovered but this isn't the end, his 14 year old son died being struck by a vehicle while he was riding a bike. It's like those men were cursed
