THE ROCK c 1995 by mahaksadasa
Kipu�ka Overture

Youth
I cannot it back
No money ever stopped the ticking of the clock
And if I sell my soul I will never get it back
So I run on to the Rescue, I run on to the Rock

When I hear tick-tock, it�s a real culture shock
Youth never goes away, it�s right there in the Rock
But if I never call His Name, I�ll never hear His knock
And I�ll fill another coffin and start another clock

If I run right now, I�ll never get away
I don�t really know if I have another day
If I can�t give my life to Him, I�ll throw it in the bay
The Rock is Govinda, the Rock is Jah way

I need to have Jah love, please don�t hide it all away
I cannot run no longer, can I give it up today?
To the Rock, Govinda, to the Rock is Jah way
Rock, Oh Govinda, Oh Rock of Jah way

Covered all in wrinkles, why I gotta talk?
Youth is not my subject, I ought to take a walk
It went away and broke my face and I thought I had it locked
Old and gray and blown away, laying on my back

I can chant down Babylon, and never ever crack
Even in a prison yard, where soldiers break my back
Sri Govinda�s Name can break all the prison locks
Sri Govinda�s the Rescue, I run on to His Rock

If I run right now, I�ll never get away
I don�t really know if I have another day
If I can�t give my life to Him, I�ll throw it in the bay
The Rock is Govinda, the Rock is Jah way

I need to have Jah love, please don�t hide it all away
I cannot run no longer, can I give it up today?
To the Rock, Govinda, to the Rock is Jah way
Rock, Oh Govinda, Oh Rock of Jah way
