of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her
hands unto God. |

A blackman land . . . |

By the rivers
of Babylon
I and I sat down
And there I wept tears from my eye
When I remember Mount Zion-I |
Psalm
137:1 - By the rivers of
Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we
remembered Zion. |
Wicked have
taken us away, in captivity
And required from us a song into a strange land
How can I and I sing King Alpha's song into a
strange land? |
Psalm
137:3 - For there they that
carried us away captive required of us a song;
and they that wasted us required of us mirth,
saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. How
shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land? |
There is no
peace, there war
Man, I want to give you your basical pretential
towards Rastafari |
|
The Lord is I
and I shepherd
I and I shall get immediate I to lay down in
green earth
He leadeth I in the path of righteousness for his
Name's sake
Meek do I walk in the valley of the shadow of
death
I and I will fear no foe |
Psalm
23:1-4 - The LORD is my
shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie
down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the
still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me
in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou
art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort
me. |
Well watch ya,
man
Forget your pride
Give Jah Jah the praise
Ethiopia . . .

But yet war was in his heart and that a bad tar
I and I fe live in love and unity
Discipline is a principal thing |
|
Therefore get
discipline
And etiquette shall be added unto thee |

And wept tears from my eye when I remembered
Mount Zion-I
Zion-I, for I and I, y'know?
Wicked man have taken us away, captivity
And required from us a song into a strange,
strange land
But how can I and I sing King Alpha's song into a
strange land?

No wicked man
cannot enter there
No wicked, no wicked man, no no no
No wicked man cannot enter Mount Zion-I, yeah |

not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the
kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor

mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor
drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall
inherit the kingdom of God. |
