Jah will be waiting there, We a shout!
 Jah will be waiting there

[Verse 1]
 In this world of calamity
 Dirty looks and [bad word] and jealousy
 And police weh abuse dem authority
 Media clowns weh nuh know 'bout variety
 Boom!

 The youngest veteran a go murder dem slow
 Ragga muffin sent to call me from the bush bungalow
 Unnu watch mek I clear out my voice now Figaro!
 Emerge from the darkness with mi big blunt a glow
 Mi hammer dem a slam and spectator get low
 Some bwoy coulda big like Bam Bam Biggalow
 Bust of trigger finger, trigger hand and trigger toe
 two gun mi have mi bust dem inna stereo 
 Cause

[Hook]
 I got to keep on walking on the road to Zion, man
 We gots to keeps it burning on the road to Zion, man
 [bad word] 1]
 Clean and pure meditation without a doubt
 Don't mek dem take you like who dem took out
 Jah will be waiting there we a shout
 Jah will be waiting there!
 In this world of calamity
 Dirty looks and [bad word] and jealousy
 And police weh abuse dem authority
 Media clowns weh nuh know bout variety
 Single parents weh need some charity
 Youths weh need some love and prosperity
 Instead of broken dreams and tragedy
 By any plan and any means and strategy

[Hook]
 Say!
 We got to keep on walking on the road to Zion, man 
 (Nas: I've been waiting to do this track with you man! Yeah...ha ha)
 (Yeah, yeah)
 You know (They know)
 We got to keep on walking on the road to Zion, man
 (Yeah you gotta keep walking y'all,
 You gotta keep...)

[Nas]
 Sometimes I can't help but feel helpless 
 I'm havin daymares in daytime 
 Wide awake try to relate 
 This can't be happenin like I'm in a dream while I'm walkin 
 Cause what I'm seein is haunting
 Human beings like ghost and zombies
 President Mugabe holding guns to innocent bodies
 In Zimbabwe
 They make John Pope seem Godly
 Sacrilegious and blasphemous

 In my lifetime I look back at paths i've walked
 Where savages fought and pastors taught 
 Prostitutes stomp in high heel boots 
 And badges screaming,"Young black children stop or I will shoot!"
 I look back at cooked crack 
 Plus cars that pass by
 Jaguars mad fly
 And I'm guilty for materialism 
 Blacks is still up in the prison [bad word] that 
 So save me your sorries, I'm raising an army 
 Revolutionary warfare with Damian Marley 
 We sparkin' the ions, marching to Zion 
 You know how Nas be NYC state of mind I'm in 

[Verse 1 Repeats]

[Hook]

 Clean and pure meditation without a doubt

 [bad word] 2]
 Clean and pure meditation without a doubt

 Ay! say,
