Not King James Version |
| CHORUS |
| A dis ya version |
| A no King James version |
| ‘Cause out of Africa |
| Came the Garden of Eden |
| Hidden from me I was never told |
| Ancient prophets black and gold |
| Like Daniel, King David and Abraham |
| Israel were all black men |
| I don’t wanna lose you |
| Japhet tried his best to erase |
| The godly parts we played |
| I says he came and took |
| And never mention in his book… so CHORUS |
| A dis ya version |
| A no King James version |
| ‘Cause out of Africa |
| Came the Garden of Eden |
| In Esau’s chapter of history |
| So little mention of you and me We rulers of kingdoms and dynasties |
| Explored this Earth for centuries |
| I don’t wanna lose ya Phoenicians, Egyptians and the Moors |
| Built civilisation, that’s for sure |
| Creators of the alphabet |
| While the West illiterate. |
| yeh |
| CHORUS |
| A dis ya version |
| A no King James version |
| ‘Cause out of Africa |
| Came the Garden of Eden |
| African heritage |
| I don’t wanna lose ya Oh, no Slavery came and took its toll |
| In the name of John Bull Dog |
| Said we turned our backs on God |
| Lost the powers that we had |
| Now our backs against the wall |
| Ask ourselves about the fall |
| Rise rise rise |
| Hold on to your culture |
| CHORUS |
| A dis ya version |
| A no King James version |
| ‘Cause out of Africa |
| Came the Garden of Eden |
| I don’t wanna lose ya I don’t wanna lose ya Never let them fool you |
