'Til I'm Laid To Rest Lyrics
[00:00.47] All my days!
[00:02.80] Seem like they have been wasted, eh? (Uh huh)
[00:06.00] Bo'y'know
[00:07.73] Just goes out to show
[00:11.22] Till I'm laid to rest, yes
[00:16.32] Always be depressed
[00:17.87] There's no life in the West uh
[00:20.01] I know the East is the best
[00:22.11] All di propaganda dem spread
[00:24.35] Tongues will haffi confess
[00:26.34] Oh I'm in bondage
[00:28.00] Living is a mess
[00:29.47] An I've got to rise up
[00:31.35] Alleviate the stress
[00:32.79] No longer will I
[00:34.11] Expose my weakness
[00:36.10] He who seeks knowledge
[00:37.55] Begins with humbleness
[00:39.36] Work 7 to 7
[00:41.10] Yet me still penniless
[00:42.79] For di food pon me table
[00:44.43] Massa God bless
[00:46.04] 'Oller fi di needy
[00:47.95] An shelterless
[00:49.34] Ethopia awaits
[00:51.06] All prince and princess-uh
[00:53.17] Till I'm laid to rest, yes
[00:56.04] Always be depressed
[00:57.74] There's no life in the West uh
[00:59.97] I know the East is the best, yes
[01:02.63] Propaganda dem spread
[01:04.27] Tongues will haffi confess
[01:06.01] What could a bad so bout di East
[01:07.80] Everybody wants a piece
[01:09.25] Africa fi Africans
[01:11.30] Marcus Mosiah speak
[01:12.78] Unification
[01:14.37] Outnumber defeat
[01:16.06] What a day when we walkin' down
[01:18.31] Redemption Street
[01:19.53] Banner pon head
[01:21.33] Bible inna hand
[01:22.82] One and all
[01:23.58] Make we trod di promised land
[01:25.82] Buju go down a Congo
[01:27.36] Stop inna Sashamanne land
[01:29.30] The city of Hararre's
[01:31.18] Where Selassie come from
[01:32.82] In Addis Abbaba
[01:34.51] Den Botswana
[01:36.41] Left Kenya
[01:37.43] A end up inna Ghana
[01:39.55] Oh what a beauty
[01:41.22] My eye sight behold
[01:42.88] Only Ethiopia
[01:44.48] Protect me from di cold
[01:46.05] Till I'm laid to rest, yes
[01:49.23] Always be depressed
[01:50.81] There's no life in the West uh
[01:53.05] I know the East is the best

[01:59.24] Organize and centralize
[02:01.33] Come as one
[02:02.60] Our seeds shall be
[02:04.01] So many more den sand
[02:05.89] Some new and replenish
[02:07.78] Pure an clean heart
[02:09.42] Far too long
[02:10.70] We've been under this bond
[02:12.62] Some a save a bag a riches
[02:14.33] An dem bend empty hand
[02:15.91] Waan say me stupid
[02:17.59] An laugh all yuh can
[02:19.30] Easier for a gunman to enter through a needle eye
[02:23.23] Than it is for a rich guy to enter inna zion
[02:27.18] Take it from I man (so)
