Lyrics Not King James Version - Steel Pulse

A dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

Dis ya, 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, no way
Ancient prophets black and gold
Like Daniel, King David and Abraham
Israel were all black man
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 books, no

A dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

Dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

In Esau's chapter of history (history)
So little mention of you and me (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

A dis ya version
A no King James version (dis ya version)
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

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
No, 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
Has our backs against the wall
Ask ourselves about the fall
(Rise), rise, (rise), rise, (rise)
Hold on to your culture

A dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

Dis ya version
A no King James version
'Cause out of Africa
Came the Garden of Eden

I don't wanna lose ya (a dis ya version)
I don't wanna lose ya (dis ya version)
Never let them fool you (a dis ya version)
I don't wanna lose ya (dis ya version)
I don't wanna lose ya (a dis ya version)
Never let them fool you (dis ya version)
I don't wanna lose ya (dis ya, dis ya version)
(Dis ya version)
(A dis ya version)
