Thine kingdom come, thine will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Thine kingdom come,
thine will be done,
on earth as it is in Zion.
You say you want to go to heaven,
that's admirable,
but the life you're living
is more of the devil.
You're living in hell
and you're so comfortable,
you gotta move to a different level.
Everybody say they want
to go to heaven,
but if they went to heaven
would they like it?
Everybody say they want to go to Zion
But if they went to Zion,
would they like it?
Your heaven, my Zion, is a holy place
A perfect mind in a perfect state
No crime, no greed, no war, no hate
Your heart's gotta be pure
just to pass through the gate
Now examine your life
and see what you like
Do you like doing wrong
or do you like doing right?
What do you enjoy?
What make you feel nice?
Could you really make the sacrifice?
You say a heaven you want fi go
So how come you not prepare
yourself from now?
How come you not make clear
your goodness flow?
Ca deep down you love
the foolishness
And you love the poppy show,
you know
Everybody say they want to go to heaven
But if they went to heaven
would they like it?
Everybody say they want to go to Zion
But if they went to Zion would they
like it?
You've been told from your birth
The only way to heaven is
down inna di dirt
Suppose you couldn't find your heaven
right here on earth
You'd have to give up
certain things
to become a convert
There would be no soul paparazzi,
no freaky singer
No Ricky Lake, no Jerry Springer
No fast food, no canned stocky
No horse racing, neither no bookie
No cigarettes, no alcohol,
pure nat ural things
Not no whole heap of chemicals
No gossiping as conversation
There wouldn't even
be no television
Everybody say they want to go to heaven,
but if they went to heaven,
would they like it?
Everybody say they want to go to Zion,
but if they went to Zion,
would they like it?
Do you believe in a the lie?
If you repent on your deathbed,
you'll go to the heaven in a the sky
Oi, check out the things you enjoy,
are they of the devil,
or are they of the Mosai?
Yo!
So stop the jealousy, the showing off,
the bad -mindedness
No child -corrupting,
pornographic, no filthiness
Stop professing righteousness
and indulging in wickedness
Every time that you truncate,
you put your soul in a distress
Stop the vanity,
the posing and the ungodliness
Time for sharing and for caring,
life is not a contest
Even the master who go
and like him better than the rest
You might find out him getting left, yes
Everybody said they
want to go to heaven
But if they went to heaven,
would they like it?
Everybody said they want to go to Zion
But if they went to Zion,
would they like it?
Nobody ain't per fect,
but you have to strive
You can reach certain high rates,
while you're still alive
Inna dem kinda system,
if you want to survive
Spiritual vibration,
you have to revive
It's all about cleaning up your act,
time for you to climb
Excess baggage, leave that behind
No one knows the hour,
no one knows the time
The writings on the wall,
can you see the sign?
Look what's taking up your time,
seek and you shall find
Now you can't go a Zion
with no carnal mind
Seek the light and make it shine,
let it shine through all the grime
A time fi preparation man,
a time fi align
Heal the power that's without,
the power that's within
Heal the omnipotent inna your doctrine
Ask fi strength and ask fi guidance
in your daily living
Selassie, Yahya, I and I King, we sing
Everybody said they
want to go to heaven
But if they went to heaven,
would they like it?
Everybody say they want
to go to Zion,
but if they went to Zion
would they like it?
Everybody say they want
to go to heaven,
but if they went to heaven
would they like it?
Everybody say they want to go to Zion,
but if they went to Zion
would they like it?
Blessed is the man that walketh not
in the counsel of the ungodly.
