Now this is the history of one
Whose beginning was not in the womb
Nor whose ending in the grave
Lucifer, the old dragon!
Once upon a time in the whole of mount Zion
Where have always been one perfection
All Jah children, they are gathered around Jah throne
Chanting songs and songs of praises
Then in one, a certain one called Lucifer
Wrecked envy, greed and lust for power
And there were others who were aspired by his ways
He had accomplices who were aspired by his ways
Tressback Satan, you cyaan get Jah children no more
There was a battle cry in the whole of mount Zion
Which caused the casting out of the host of Satan
Who then came down here as the serpent upon this earth
With his flesh, his sorrows and his woes
Then he sought the soul of Adam
And in Eve he put the sting of evil
And all nations did learn of his ways
All nations, tongues of nations did learn of his ways
Tressback Satan, you cyaan get Jah children no more
Now it's the same, the same old dragon, yeah-yeah
Who hold up Balaam, Nimrod and Satan
Who have caused Jah little children to go astray
With his presumptuous, his scornful and dirty ways
He is appointed for a time and season
There to rule over and to deceive all nations
And then, he shall be put away
Then after all these things, he shall be put away
There shall appear a mighty high angel
Dragging out of Zion and having the key
To the bottomless pit
And the great chain of lightning in his hand, oh yes
Then he shall grab hold on the dragon
That hold up Balaam, Nimrod, Lucifer and Satan
And he's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore
And he can never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore, oh yes
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore
And he can never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore, oh yes
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore
And he can never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away, never get away
Never get away
He's gonna bound him, bound him
He's gonna bound him forevermore, oh yeah
He's gonna bound him, bound him, bound him forevermore, oh yes
And he can never get away, never get away
