Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm]Yeah man[Am]
[Dm]Jah will be waitin' there, we a shout
Jah will be waitin' there

[Verse 1]
In this [Dm]world of calamity
Dirty looks and [Am]grudges and jealousy
And police weh ab[Dm]use dem authority
Media clowns
weh nuh know 'bout variety, boom
The young[Dm]est veteran a go murder dem slow
Ragga[Am]muffin sent to call me
from the bush bungalow
Better [Dm]watch it
mek I clear out my voice now, Figaro
Emerge from the darkness
with my big blunt aglow
Di [Dm]hammer dem a slam and spectator get low
Some [Am]bwoy could a big like Bam Bam Bigelow
Buss [Dm]off trigger finger,
trigger hand and trigger toe
A two gun mi have

[Chorus 1]
me buss dem inna stereo, 'cause
[Dm]I got to keep on walki[Am]n'
on the road to Zion, [Dm]man
Hey, we got to keep it [Am]burnin',
on the road to Zion, [Dm]man

[Bridge 1]
Clean and [Dm]pure meditation without a doubt
[Am]Don't let dem take you like who dem took out
[Dm]Jah will be waitin' there, we a shout
Jah will be waitin' there

[Verse 2]
In this [Dm]world of calamity
Dirty looks and [Am]grudges and jealousy
And police weh ab[Dm]use dem authority
Media clowns weh nuh know 'bout variety
Single parents they [Dm]need some charity
Yutes they need some love [Am]and prosperity
Instead of broken [Dm]dreams and tragedy
By any plan and any means and strategy

[Chorus 2]
[Dm]Say, we got to keep on [Am]walkin'
on the road to Zion, [Dm]man
(Been waitin' to do this track...)
You know, you got to keep on [Am]walkin'
on the road to [Dm]Zion, man
(You gotta keep walkin', y'all...)

[Verse 3]
Sometimes I can't [Dm]help but feel helpless
I'm havin' daymares at [Am]day time,
wide awake, try to relate
[Dm]This can't be happenin',
like I'm in a dream while I'm walkin'
'Cause what I'm seein' is hauntin'
[Dm]Human beings like ghosts and zombies
President Mu[Am]gabe holdin' guns
to innocent bodies in [Dm]Zim babwe
They make John Pope seem godly,
sacrilegious and blasphemous
In my [Dm]lifetime I look back at paths I walked
[Am]Where savages fought and pastors taught
Prosti[Dm]tutes stomp in high heel boots
And badges scream at young black children,
"Stop or I will shoot"
I look [Dm]back at cooked crack,
plush cars that pass [Am]by
Jaguars mad fly
And I'm [Dm]guilty for materialism
Blacks are still up in the prison, trust that
So [Dm]save me your sorries, I'm raisin' a army
Revo[Am]lutionary warfare with Damian Marley
[Dm]We sparkin' the ions, marchin' to Zion
You know how Nas be,
NYC state of mind I'm...

[Verse 4]
In this [Dm]world of calamity
Dirty looks and [Am]grudges and jealousy
And police weh ab[Dm]use dem authority
Media clowns
weh nuh know 'bout variety, boom
The young[Dm]est veteran a go murder dem slow
Ragga[Am]muffin sent to call me
from the bush bungalow
Better [Dm]watch it
mek I clear out my voice now, Figaro
Emerge from the darkness
with my big blunt aglow
Di [Dm]hammer dem a slam and spectator get low
Some [Am]bwoy could a big like Bam Bam Bigelow
Buss [Dm]off trigger finger,
trigger hand and trigger toe
A two gun mi have

[Chorus 3]
me buss dem inna stereo, 'cause
[Dm]I got to keep on walki[Am]n'
on the road to Zion, [Dm]man
Hey, we got to keep it [Am]burnin',
on the road to Zion, [Dm]man

[Bridge 2]
Clean and [Dm]pure meditation without a doubt
[Am]Don't let dem take you like who dem took out
[Dm]Jah will be waitin' there, we a shout
Jah will be waitin' there
Clean and [Dm]pure meditation without a doubt
[Am]Don't let dem take you like who dem took out
[Dm]Jah will be waitin' there, we a shout
Jah will be waitin' there

[Verse 5]
In this [Dm]world of calamity
Dirty looks and [Am]grudges and jealousy
And police weh ab[Dm]use dem authority
Media clowns weh nuh know 'bout variety
Single parents they [Dm]need some charity
Yutes they need some love [Am]and prosperity
Instead of broken [Dm]dreams and tragedy
By any plan and any means and strategy
Instead of broken dreams and tragedy
Yutes they need some love and prosperity
But they got broken dreams and tragedy
By any plan and any mean and any strategy

[Outro 1]
Hey, say, you got to keep on walkin'
on the road to Zion, man
You know, you got to keep on walkin'
on the road to Zion, man
