Reach Zion(Tsion)- the holy land of Ethiopia.

lyrics

(Chorus)
We are free if we want- we can reach for Zion
We are free...if we want
We are free if we want- Are we free?
(Jugg Verse 1)
Try fi reach Mt Zion but I'll never be a Zionist
Heart like a lion and pon mi side is a lioness
Technological age get approached like a scientist
Use some of these Babylonian tools for defying this
Leave this Western way of life physically or emotionally
Words of nuff greats from dub plates I hold close to me
Damn they're misquotin' me but my fans are promotin' me
And after I leave this place you could chant with the ghost of me
See me nah deal with Pope John Paul or Pope Mon Benedict
Me a deal with Ras Makonnnen and the Negus Menelik
King of Kings, elect of God spreading African etiquette
Similar to the Trinity- New York, New Jersey, Connecticut
I rate from the Tri-state and from this place we migrate
Promote culture music and you see a dip in the crime rate
See me a baldhead but me have a Nyabinghi mind state
Select me dubplate and watch empress' hips gyrate
(Chorus)
(Jugg Verse 2)
Axumite Kingdom near the Mountains of Lasta
Solomonic ancestry Selassie I Rasta
It's obvious who built the original obelisk
At the base of the tomb is King Ezana sarcophogus
It's ominous how the Europeans tried to topple this
But here is the reason Ethiopia remained autonomous
Here come Menelik the II with the power of King Solomon
And the Queen Makeda of Sheba- the bloodline's astonishing
With the Ras and the Negus the army starts demolishing
With the Shewa and the powerful Orominya following
Italians tried to advance and reach Addis Ababa
But they got cut off and crushed at the Battle of Adwa
See they don't understand Ge'ez still spoken by Tigrinya
Outnumbered by the united peoples of Ancient Abyssinia
So come sistren come bredren - trod on fi Zion
Cause one way or another we gwine Leave Babylon
(Chorus)
