Lyrics - Til I'm Laid To Rest by 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 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 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
Harrae where
Selassie come from
In
Addis
Abbaba then
Botswana
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
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 trough a needle eye
Than a rich man to enter
Zion
Take it from
I man
So(
Chorus)
