'Til I'm laid to rest
Yes, always be depressed
There's no life in the West
So, I know the East is the best
All the propaganda them spread
Tongues will haffi confess
Oh, I'm in bondange living is a mess
And I've got to rise up alleviate the stress
No longer will I expose my weakness
He who seek knowledge begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7 yet me still penniless
All the food upon my table Massa God Bless
Holler fi the needy and shelterless
Ethiopia awaits all prince and princess
'Til I'm laid to rest
Yes, always be depressed
There's no life in the West
So, I know the East is the best
Yes, propaganda them spread
Tongues will haffi confess
What could be so bad about the East, everybody want a peace
Africa fi Africans, Marcus Mosiah speak
Unification outnumber defeat
What a day when we walking down Redemption Street
Banner 'pon head, bible in our hands
One and all let we trod the promised land
Buju go down a Congo, stopped inna Sashamanne Land
The city of Harrare's where Selassie come from
In Addis Abbaba then Botswana
Left Kenya end up inna Ghana
Oh, what a beauty my eyesight behold
Only Ethiopia protect me from the cold
'Til I'm laid to rest
Yes, always be depressed
There's no life in the West
So, I know the East is the best
All the propaganda them spread
Tongues will haffi confess
Organize and centralize come as one
Our seeds shall be so many more than sand
Some new and replenish, pure and clean hand
Far too long we've been under this bond
Some a save a bag a riches, yet them dead empty hand
Gwaan say me stupid and laugh all you can
Easier for a camel to enter through a needle eye
Than it is for a rich guy to enter in a Zion
Take it from I man, so
'Til I'm laid to rest
Yes, always be depressed
There's no living in the West
So, I know the East is the best
Lord, the propaganda them spread
Tongues will haffi confess
Oh, I'm in bondange living is a mess
And I've got to rise up, alleviate the stress
No longer will I expose my weakness
He who seek knowledge begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7 yet me still penniless
All the food upon my table Massa God Bless
Holler fi the needy and shelterless
Ethiopia awaits all prince and princess
'Til I'm laid to rest
Yes, always be depressed
There's no life in the West
So, I know the East is the best
