Lyrics Eastern Mountain - Sizzla

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

The Eastern Mountain, yeh
You can reach if you give it all your vibes
Like the water from the fountain, yow
I tell you do good that's all there is to life

Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach if you really decide
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Tell you do good that's there is to life

I will let no one stop you from being strong
Fi earth likewise a fi yuh opinion
What's your feelings
Check yourself, know yuh position

When you flatter, you dem with the flattering tongue
The enemies mob the heathens come inna gang
Emperor Selassie I is the protection
Years of servility, tears drop like bombs

Night and day, never free without dawn
Check life, well, a pure slavery deh gwaan
So mi come fi tell the people that the child was born
Him a the government, Selassie I, the Ethiopian

Strike to the devil with the education
Proper, literate, to uplift the nation
Life, thought, I hurt, I belong

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

The Eastern Mountain, yow
You can reach if you give it all your vibes
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Wanting to see what's on the other side

Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach only if you decide
Like the water from the fountain, yow
Rasta man, nah, tell the ghetto youths them survive

Here the youths them crying
They were being pushed aside
Only the best was proof enough to pulverize
The hopes, the understanding that we still nah go slide

Children come together, Rasta Far, I deh rise
Better fly we together, I survive
People of the color must always be wise
From the depth of the valley up onto the sky

Even to be lucky police stop all the crimes
We nuh, want nuh, confusion round Rasta Far I
We bun the anxiety courageously smile, yow
Babylon we know you profile

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

The Eastern Mountain, yow
You can reach only if you got the vibes
Like the rivers and the fountain, yow
I tell you do good and hail Rasta Far I

Knowledge is golden, yow
You can reach if you really decide
Like the rivers and the fountain, yow
Tell you be good and open up all your eyes

Oh, oh, surely the omnipotent
Yours truly, how Ras recommend
Tell Selassie King from the Ishent
Let the power of the empress guide the resident

Oh, the people from the south shall deal
With another, nah tell yu no doubt
Commune with the western praises and shout
The eastern marching thy route

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away

It's getting red now
Oh mamma, yeh, oh mamma, yeh
It's getting dread now
Home and away, home and away
