ZION DESTINATION

Lyrics by C. Hakata

Yeah, yeah…

Zion is my destination

Zion is my home

I'm going there to meet Jah God (2x)

Just because I'm so very sick

I'm so much fed up now

By everything, that is going on

Inna Babylon

Many many tribulations

So much fussing and fighting

And all Jah people

Dying everyday

Chorus

Mother is fighting against her daughter

Father is fighting against his son

And nations warring against nations

Inna Babylon

Many many tribulations

So much fussing and fighting

And all Jah people (I said)

Dying everyday

Chorus

Yeah, yeah…

There's so much world pollution

What we need is a solution

Coz this ya world

Is in so much pain

 Many many tribulations

So much fussing and fighting

And Jah people

Dying everyday

Chorus

SURVIVE

Lyrics by C. Hakata

We are reaching the end of times

Yet you keep on committing more crimes

The time is now at hand

Devil won't you understand

Chorus

You are killing the babies before them born

Leaving their mothers to weep and mourn

You are burning the people alive

They must survive

They must survive

They must surve

They must survive

Your people ain't got no food to eat

Yet you kill them and you eat their meat

You're spending all your money on nuclear arms

While neglecting all your people's farms

You're killing the people at stake

Can't you see it's a big mistake?

Conscripting the children into your army

Sending them to war on a hungry tummy

Chorus

Grenades and bullets in their back-packs

Sub-machine guns on their backs

You're wasting money on killer bombs

While your people ain't got no homes

We are reaching the end of times

Yet you keep on committing more crimes

The time is now at hand

Devil won’t you understand

Chorus

THE BUSH MUST BURN

Lyrics by C. Hakata

Jah spoke to Moses

Through the burning bush

Burning the bush it was burning hot

When Jah spoke to Moses

When Jah spoke to Moses

I'm sending you to Egypt inna Africa

To free my people

Take them to the land of milk and honey

The land of the Canaanites

The land of the Jebusites

The bush must burn, the bush must burn

Coz Jah Jah is a-talking

The bush must burn, the bush must burn

Coz Jah Jah is among us

Burn me the bush so I can meditate

On the word of Jah Jah

Oh I can feel his presence in you and I and I

Jah Jah is among us

Yes, Jah Jah is among us

He guided Moses through the wilderness

Through day and night

So trust in the Lord He will guide you on and on

Like He did unto Moses

Like He did unto Moses

Chorus

Jah spoke to Moses

Through the burning bush

Burning the bush it was burning hot

When Jah spoke to Moses

When Jah spoke to Moses

I'm sending you to Egypt inna Africa

To free my people

Take them to the land of milk and honey

The land of the Canaanites

The land of the Jebusites

The bush must burn, the bush must burn

Coz Jah Jah is a-talking

The bush must burn, the bush  must burn

Coz Jah Jah is among us

Burn me the bush so I can meditate

On the word of Jah Jah

Oh I can feel his presence in you and I and I

Jah Jah is among us

Yes, Jah Jah is among us

He guided Moses through the wilderness

Through day and night

So trust in the Lord He will guide you on and on

Like He did unto Moses

Like He did unto Moses

AFRICA IS MY ROOTS

Lyrics by C. Hakata

Yes I was born and raised in Africa

And my whole family lives over in Africa, yes

I am a roots man a true-born African                               

My heart doesn't know no anger

And I don't wanna live in danger

I am peaceful and not hateful

Just peaceful

That’s why I say…

Africa is my roots

Africa is my home

Nowhere else I wanna roam

Africa is where I wanna be

Here's something I want you all to understand (understand)

Respect for each other flow throughout the motherland (motherland)

There's gratification, not frustration

Just satisfaction, e-hey

And you may go searching for a place to live (to live)

Now this is what I want you to believe (believe)

There is dignity and humility

In every community

That’s why I say…

Chorus

Oh! Amai..

Ndiri chizvarwa chemuno mu Africa

Mhuri yangu yose inogara  mu Africa…nhai amai

Ndiri we Africa

My heart doesn't know no anger

And I don't wanna live in danger

I am peaceful and not hateful

So peaceful
