Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bound to glory ooh yeah

Things we keep in our mind those things drive us crazy
Things we keep in our heart is our story
We're walking on thin line good energy to survive
We're the authors of our lives and bound to glory

Said I heard voices in the morning where silence is underneath the hill
Praising Jah the Mighty Glory give thanks for life and the journey yeah
Every little grand of sand is rich it's the body of the soul
The land of experience where the living grow

(the truth is life is not a friend) Life is not a friend
Time is not waiting for I and I got to live my life yeah
Whose close to us to tell I and I who we became
In the heart of a sufferer you'll find faith still a conqueror
We ah go take down Lucifer no politics, no drama

We walking on a thin line good energy to survive
We're the authors of our lives and bound to glory ooh yeah
Where the people give light to the colors of the earth
Truth will be heard like never before
Aw oh oh oh feeling good yeah

Now lets all rise up and chant down Lucifer
Faith is a riddim with grace, higher we fly higher we fly
We will succeed where we going
As long as we know know know where we belong
The hight of our dreams are tall
And there is no room for fear at all

Bound to glory (Bound to glory) Oh ho oh
Bound to glory for we shall be free yeah
I heard the voices in the morning
Where silence is underneath the hill
For humanity we stand all the way to zion

Bound to glory (bound to glory)
Shall be free bound to glory
For we shall be free yeah
Bound to glory (bound to glory)
We need to be free yeah




Walking on a thin line
Good to bee free
