Home Sweet Home
RA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I keep placing Jah for life
I will do the things that?s right
I keep loving Jah for life
I keep doing things that?s right

Oh oh oh oh yes

We?ve been drifting far too long
???????????????? to find a way
Asking Jah to lend the hell
And protect to stay by day

Even suffering far too long
Help the wick to be strong

(Chorus)
We?re coming home, Ethiopia oh wait us
We?re coming home, and we?re burning Babylon
I can?t wait to get home to mama (mama)
To feel her warm embrace
I belong her, to touch ya
And see her smiling face (oh mama)
I now she?s wanna well coming home
I?m not damn girl alone (alone yes)
A mama way, to see her
And when I get there I?ll never gonna leave her
I will never ?????????????
She?s a positive force in my life

(Chorus x2)
We?re coming home, ooohhhh oohhhhooh
We?re coming home, and we?re burning Babylon
We?re coming home, Mount Zion oh wait us
We?re coming home, oohhh oohoooh





I keep place in Jah for life
I will do the things that?s right (x2)
