'Til I'm Laid To Rest
Buju Banton
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 living in bondage 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 could be 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 in our hands One and all lets trod the promised land Buju go down a congo Stopped in Sashamanne Land The city of Harrare where Selassie come from In Addis Abbaba then Botswana Left Kenya end up in Ghana Oh what a beauty my eyesight behold Only Ethopia 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 Far too long we've been under this bond 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 Zion Take it from I man So Chorus1995 donovan germain production lisa cortes production reggae
