Emancipation they say will never come, oh, will never come..
Man, I say, man is doomed to die
Down inna Babylon with war and strife
Grief and terror and the tongues of hate
This I know, will soon abate
For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions
From the hills of captivity's plains
Yes I, the scene, of the Righteous One
Will someday clear, for I this land
For my brothers and my sisters
And my brethren in the yoke of oppression
For the child who only knows of death and destruction
Deliverance will come, come, come
Deliverance will come
Inna dis ya time it will come, come, come
Deliverance will come, yeah, yeah
No more visitation..
Now I know where I man stand
Yeah, woah, yeah
For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions, yeah
From the hills of captivity's plains
Yes I, the scene, of the Righteous One
Will someday clear, for I this land
The man called wisely all laugh at me
My captivity and bondage all they can see
Emancipation they say will never come, whoah
Your destiny is in Babylon
And not in Beulah Land, Beulah Land
But I know the weary, destitute and scorned, yeah, yeah
Weakened strength by oppression and dread reforms, yeah
My deliverance will come, come, come
Deliverance will come inna dis ya time
It will come, come, come
Deliverance will come, yeah
Jubilation! Seh, depression no more
Visitation inna dis ya time, yeah
Jubilation, yeah, inna Beulah Land, yeah..
