[Verse 1: Efe Oraka]
He told me put your life on the line
He told me stretch your hand out to mine
Said, “Baby I'll be gone for a while
And I just wanna take in your smile”
But where does that leave me?
I'm up in this city
Waiting for a love I've never known
He promised me that he'd come around
He said that he would not let me down
So tell me baby where are you now?
This silence has become kinda loud
I'm stuck in this distance
So much for commitment
I just need to find my way back home

[Chorus: Efe Oraka]
Zion, Zion
I'm tired of trying
Zion, Zion
I'm so sick of crying
Zion, Zion
Oh why are you lying?
Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion

Zion, Zion
I'm tired of trying
Zion, Zion
I'm so sick of crying
Zion, Zion
Oh why are you lying?
Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion
[Verse 2: Efe Oraka]
Your ego's too big and your head is too small
You're moving too fast oh I hope you don't fall
I get on my knees and I pray to the Lord
Oh you're losing me by not keeping your word
Broken broken, you're leaving me open
Hoping hoping, that's how I've been coping
So many casualties in this war that we fight
Why do you do me wrong just so you feel alright?

[Chorus: Efe Oraka]
Zion, Zion
I'm tired of trying
Zion, Zion
I'm so sick of crying
Zion, Zion
Oh why are you lying?
Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion

Zion, Zion
I'm tired of trying
Zion, Zion
I'm so sick of crying
Zion, Zion
Oh why are you lying?
Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion
[Verse 3: M.I Abaga]
Jeremiah 14:9
She said
“Why have you rejected Judah
Why have you rejected me?
I don’t have telepathy
Is it something that I said to you?
Something that you said to me?
That I was not receptive to
Something that you requested me?
Please know that I’m blessed to be
Honored by your presence
So in essence when you rejected me
Effectively it made me less of who I am
Like a man with a vasectomy
Come back to me
Return to me what is mine
A peace that I cannot find
Without you ...”
He said
Nothing he was silent
He just sat there quietly
Denying her the light of all
Which she was so reliant
Defiant
Watching her disintegrate to pieces
She cried to Moses, Allah, Buddha, Jesus
Send me Hades or send me Gabriel
To fix the pieces
Send me prophets who can interpret
For me the reasons
Please...I’m just trynna rediscover Zion
