Not King James Version

Lyrics

[Chorus] A dis ya version A no King James version 'Cause out of Africa Came the Garden of Eden Dis ya version (A dis ya version) A no King James version 'Cause out of Africa Came the Garden of Eden [Verse 1] Hidden from me I was never told, no way Ancient prophets black and bold Like Daniel, King David and Abraham Israel were all black men (I don't wanna lose ya!) 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 Dis ya version A no King James version 'Cause out of Africa Came the Garden of Eden [Verse 2] 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 civilization, that's for sure Creators of the alphabet While the West illiterate, yeh! [Chorus] A dis ya version A no King James version (A 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 [Bridge] 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 As our backs against the wall Ask ourselves about the fall Rise (rise!), 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 Dis ya version A no King James version 'Cause out of Africa Came the Garden of Eden [Outro] I don't wanna lose ya (A dis ya version) I don't wanna lose ya (A dis ya version) Never let them fool you (A dis ya version) I don't wanna lose ya (A dis ya version) I don't wanna lose ya (A dis ya version) Never let them fool you (A dis ya version) I don't wanna lose ya (A dis ya version)
