One cold dark day last year as bad as it could be
I found myself wondering just where my life would lead
So I went down to the river to watch the waters flow
And contemplate a future I did not know

Then I noticed an old man sitting not far away
Looking in my direction he beckoned me
So I went and sat by him just I and I
Then he looked at me and he said, he said

Fly with the winds of Jah
Just like a dandelion
Sail on the breath of Jah
Straight to Zion

Say, what does this mean to me, Jah-Jah hasn't been so good
He said it means a lot, you just haven't understood
Jah's not someone who helps the helpless or feeds those who are not fed
He gave us this paradise. What more do you need?

He said…..
