Groundation Lyrics
Well now the youth man say
I have come a long way, between this Earth and Zion
And the warrior say
I too have made my way as I roll upon this rod of iron
Now dem man go and they shall live up
But we shall stay to face this dragon war
And dem man go and they shall live up
But we shall stay to face this dragon war
For the Book does say
Like the sand of the sea shores we shall lie
And the book does say the time will come when I and I shall testify
Born out of de masses, caste us into the heart of Babylon
Run upon a Mount Sinai, oh Most High come make it so
Jah Jah know, know a savior, a sit upon a old rock log
Jah Jah I know, know a savior, a coming from the tribe of Judah
Jah Jah I know, know a savior, lie beyond a Wailing Wall
Jah Jah I know, know a savior, coming from a dis a heart of dragon war
Well now the youth man say
He say I have come a long way, between this Earth and Zion
And the warrior say
I too have made my way as I trot upon this rod of iron
Now dem man go and they shall live up
But we shall stay to face this dragon war
And dem man go and they shall live up
But we shall stay to face this dragon war
Hollow de, hollow de, hollow their hearts
Hollow de, hollow de, hollow their words
No we'll never hear dem barking
Coming to dem I say, take them away to Israel
Ya call upon a Mont Sinai, oh Most High come make it so
Jah Jah know, know a savior, a coming from a true lamb Lord
Jah Jah I know, know a savior, trotted from the tribe of Judah
Jah Jah I know, know a savior, lie beyond a Wailing Wall
Jah Jah I know, know, know, know
