Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on

Oh children of the mount zion
Go rid of yourself of rejection of man
As free as the grass grow and the wind blow
Wherever you go two deaths will follow whoa
Let the communion of rightousness
Consume your own with joy and gladness
Freeing your mind from envy jealousy and illusion
Lifting you up from sinking sand
With justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on
Yay oh
Pass it on
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on

For what does it profit a man to hate the world and lose his soul
No need to be proud at the center
All because of mount zion got thee vacation
It's better to enlighten the world of the masters plan
And save your soul
With happiness joy and satisfaction ooh yeah
Seek these words wisdom and understanding ooh yeah
Lets cherish this gift of life
Day by day
You and me
Pass it on
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on

Don't stop now don't stop now keep on moving
Don't stop now don't stop now keep on moving
Oh children of the mount zion
Worried about yourself of rejection of man
For as the graas grow and the wind blow
Goodness will follow wherever you go ooh yeah
Let the communion of rightousness
Fills your heart with joy and happiness
Freeing you from all envy and jealousy
Lifting you up from sinking sand
But you done right
Pass it on pass it on
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on
Yay oh
Justice peace and unity for you and me
Pass it on




Yay oh
Whoa
