Horace Andy - Zion Gate


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

I don't want to
No, I don't want to be outside
When Zion Gate close
Matthew 25:10-12 - And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Luke 13:25 - When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
Luke 13:28 - There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
I just want to
Yes, I want to be inside
When Zion Gate close

'Cause the world is enslaved
Millions are lost
Some seeking world power, some vanity
They don't remember Jah

Sadder iniquity, prostitution
Too much wrong-doings
In the sight of Jah

So I don't want to
No, I don't want to be outside
When Zion Gate close

I just want to
Yes, I want to be inside
When Zion Gate close

Yeah, I don't want to be outside

Black woman
Can't you see what they are doing to you, oh?
Giving you evil bill to destroy your nation
You're onto me(??)
Though one can teach the children the wrong-doings
And tell them that it's right

So, I don't want to
No, I don't want to be outside
When Zion Gate close

I just want to
Yes, I want to be inside
When Zion Gate close

Yes, I want to be, be inside...
