Til` I`m Laid To Rest Lyrics

Chorus
'Til I'm laid to rest
Always be depressed
There's no life in the
West
i know the East is the best
All the propaganda they spread
Tongues
will have to confess

I'm in bondage living is a mess
I've got to rise
up alleviate the stress
No longer will I expose my weakness
He who seeks
knowledge begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7 but I'm still penniless
All
the food upon my table Massa God bless
Holler for the needy and
shelterless
Ethiopia awaits all prince and
princess

Chorus

What coube so bad about the East
Everybody
wants a piece
Africa for Africans
Marcus Mosiah speak
Unification
outnumbers defeat
What a day when we walk down Redemption Street
Banner
on heads bible inna we hands
One and all lets trod the promised land
Buju
go down a Congo
Stopped in Shashamane Land
The city of Harare where
Selassie com from
In Addis Ababa then Batswana
Left Kenya end up in
Ghana
Oh what a beauty my eyesight behold
Only Ethiopia protect me from
the cold

Chorus

Organize and centralize come as one
Our seeds
shall be so many more than sand
Some new and replenish pure and clean
heart
For too long we've been under this band
Some a save a bag a
riches
Yet they die empty hand
Go on saying I'm stupid and laugh all you
can
Easier for a caller to go through a needle eye
Than a rich man to
enter a Zion
Take it from I man
So
