Flag Flown High |
So was it in the beginning |
Ni ni ni ni ning |
And so shall it be in the end |
Lord woy, na na na na na |
In the beginning God created everything |
Jah, Rastafari |
And everything was created in Africa! |
Lord woy, na na na na na |
Repatriate black man |
Jah, Rastafari |
Repatriation! |
Na nai, na na na na na |
Africa! |
We coming home we coming home |
Holy Mount Zion I’m coming home to you (never refuse the black one) |
Holy Mount Zion I’m coming home to you (every black a' infant to the mother |
land) |
I face a lot of trials and tribulation |
But through all of that I man still stand strong (stand up strong stand up |
strong) |
Giving thanks and praise to the almighty One |
And looking forward to reach Mount Zion |
And I man say Zion I’m coming home to you (mama Africa we cry) |
Holy Mount Zion I’m coming home to you |
And I tell every black man |
Africa is a flag flowing high inna mi head and inna mi heart |
Like the father going to Britain carrying the cross |
Flag flow high inna mi head and inna mi heart |
Africa di whole a' me it is not half |
That’s why I say Zion I’m coming home to you (unu better head back home) |
Teach the yutes dem right but nuh teach them wrong (never, never) |
Jah call upon the yutes 'cause di yutes are strong (have to be strong) |
Look to Africa dat a' fi yuh mama land |
And down a' Africa a' where yuh find Mount Zion |
And I man say Zion I’m coming home to you |
Say holy Mount Zion I’m coming home to you |
Africa di motherland |
Africa nuh refuse no black man |
Every black man deal wid repatriation |
But you nuh listen |
Nuh watch di |
express man created condition |
Yuh nuh no say Africa a' where I come from |
Is there I come from and is there I belong |
So I’m callin' all black man |
Redemption song unu better sing it everyone |
It inna mi head it inna mi heart |
Mi can’t stop that |
It tickle fi mi brain and it pressure fi mi heart |
Mi tell mi history teacher say she |
'cause Africa is lifeline, di rod and di staff |
Oh mama Africa! |
I man say Zion I’m coming home to you |
The Bingi man him say Zion |
I’m coming home to you |
They said I don’t have no rights inna Babylon |
Because I don’t know how the West was won |
Neither I can’t change their plan |
The West is controlled by the Ku Klux Klan |
Rastaman, Zion, I’m coming home to you (mount Zion I, haffi I and I) |
Rasta say Zion, I’m coming home to you (one more time) |
Holy Mount Zion, I’m coming home to you (I'm going home to you) |
Africa is a flag flowing high inna mi head and inna mi heart |
Like di father going through tribulation carrying the cross |
Flag flowing high inna mi head and inna mi heart |
Africa di whole a me it’s just not half |
I say so many rivers I’ve crossed |
I know mi cross because mi care 'bout mi past… |
