she chose her son and motherhood over a material things and put her career on pause teaching us women to embrace motherhood standing by her decision.... love it.. women and motherhood !!!!!!!!!!! bless the mothers womb we are mother nature!!!
Not many women can do that as they are single women working menial jobs. Lauryn might not have came up front herself anymore because she could afford to. She wrote songs for other artists which she got paid money that could cover her bills and take care of her children. I think sorry I know if more women could do it they would.
I named my daughter Zion because of this song. She was born with so many health issues and her name gave her and me the strength we needed to persevere. She is a senior in college and will be 26 in September. Thank you Miss Hill for the inspiration ❤️
I remember exactly where I was when I first heard this song and I melted. This was before I was a parent. Parenthood is not easy but it’s a a blessing.
This takes me back to her reading from the scriptures at the Grammys and to know that the infant of that song is now a full grown young Marley man is just powerful and blessed.
I understand Lauryn's decisions. I get it. 100,000%. And those decisions, were hers and hers alone, to make. Lauryn let show business/ the industry go, in order to focus on and to take care of her first born. Zion. She KNEW it wouldn't be an easy feat. Lauryn sacrificed one thing, for another. And that was her career. She chose Zion, and to "Start a Family", OVER her career. She "knew" 2 things are way way more important, than the other. God, her FAMILY. There's not a damn thing wrong in her decisions. She did The Right Thing, FOR, her.
I named my daughter Zion. She just graduated from college in December. This song WAS the reason. I cried like a baby when I heard this beautiful song, while pregnant
For everyone who didn’t get to experience her at the onset and height of her career.. what a treat you’ve missed! She’ll forever be one of my favorites! ❣️💕..
Didn’t experience her then as far as concert but I’ve experienced her along her career and in a recent concert that she did in fact show up to so it’s all the same an experience of your favorite is an experience
We are too quick to complain about our own talented artists. Have you heard other non black artists and their pathetic singing and their people don't discredit them as we do our own! I would have been only too happy to be at this concert . Well done Lauryn - You made it out of the system. Keep on doing what you were born to do - re-educate us!
The renditions in this concert need to be added to the anniversary release of Lauryn’s re-release of her pinnacle album. I’m sure it will be a best seller! you saw it here first! Great video with real love and emotion! I love it.
❤ Oh so beautiful! Have always loved Lauryn Hill. And the song Zion always makes me cry when listening to it. Great to "see him, finally" too. 😊 Looks like they share the most beautiful bond. Love it. ❤❤❤❤❤
My birthday is May 25th and Lauryn’s birthday is May 26th I was in my last semester of college and I was on the road to become a pop artist. I had just finished my EP when I found out I was pregnant. Many family members expected me to abort my child but I chose to give him life. When I was 6 months pregnant. My son’s father passed away. So I was having him alone. My family played this song at my baby shower. They made a beautiful bird cage and each member marched up and gave me written messages/wishes on butterfly shaped pieces of paper that i put in the cage. I still have some of my butterfly wishes 10 years later. I cry whenever I hear this song!!!! ❤
What her baby means to her & What this song means to her! I am crying, Through my son eyes he watch me become the woman I am today! Ms. Lauryn Hill I love you!
She changed words here to Jehovah said Lauryn baby use your head; His life deserves a chance ❤ she mentions God's name on multiple occasions during this livey so nice to hear she still praising the Grand Creator and aint sold out like the rest of the fame striken rebels ❤Her changed words too "Jehovah thank you for choosing, teach me what I should be" ❤❤
I LOVE ME AND YOUR HEART IS YOUR FAMILY ALWAYS BLESSED UP WITH US AND YOUR FAMILY LIFE RIGHT NOW YOU ARE SO PROUD OF ALL OF MY LOVED ONES IN THIS FRIENDSHIP OF GODS PUREST LOVE WITHIN OUR LIVES ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN ANYTHING I’VE EVER KNOWN IN MY LIFE AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!
This song became my personal favorite…being I too experienced the anxiety of becoming a new mother and the uncertainty that comes with an unplanned pregnancy. This song has a double meaning… it’s for her son but also a declaration of her faith…Zion means The kingdom of God or The Holy place. When her son arrived it gave her life a new meaning. She thanked God for her child …for through that child she truly understood God the fathers love for her as his child. Her new found joy was in Zion her son who reflected the joy of God. Joel 3:17 “17 “Then you will know that I, the Lord your God, dwell in Zion, my holy hill. Jerusalem will be holy; never again will foreigners invade her.”
Literally get emotional anytime me I hear it! Sing to my first born often! The words!!! Powerful! Lauryn Hill x Zion Marley is epic & true signs of Jah light!
She is overwhelmed with emotion you could feel it in her voice she's crying her eyes out God has blessed her and her children with 5his one of the greatest album ever made my favourite song on this album is zion ❤️ 💜 ❤❤❤
Being very emotional will interupt your vocal abilities.. I don't know if Lauryn realized this. She seemed to get upset when the pitches were off a little,.. like blaming the band instead of just going with it.
To all the mothers, you are loved, appreciated and acknowledged. What would we have without you? May the Most High bless and keep you all who, like Lauryn, chose your family over this world. You are a blessing. May the Most High bless you.
Tear-dripping the depth of emotion's Lauryn exemplifies on her journey she shares with this cold world. I will always love Ms. Lauryn Hill regardless of how she chooses to perform her songs, artistic ability, & God given talent.🙏❤️🙌
I was pregnant when this song came out with a song and I was young and if I had him it would change my life in a big way because the struggle would have been even more for me but I chose him. I’ve always protected him and indeed the struggle was real and he is now 25 and it still is. But I wouldn’t change it. No one will ever understand the choice I made my struggle so I cherish this song and and cry peacefully when I hear it. It’s our song. His name is not Zion, it it Christopher.
Lauryn needs a 6 month rest & recovery vocal chords rest. One of my fave singers but her nodes sounds inflamed. Rest, breathwork, proper vocal coach to help her with shift in voice with childbirth & aging, right teas, and meditation. All the best to one of the greatest we ever had.
she chose her son and motherhood over a material things and put her career on pause teaching us women to embrace motherhood standing by her decision.... love it.. women and motherhood !!!!!!!!!!! bless the mothers womb we are mother nature!!!
True. Many women never got the message.
Not all many can take a lesson
Not many women can do that as they are single women working menial jobs. Lauryn might not have came up front herself anymore because she could afford to. She wrote songs for other artists which she got paid money that could cover her bills and take care of her children. I think sorry I know if more women could do it they would.
@@LittleMissthe1… well said how many Lauren’s do we have?
Some women too should know their status before having children to burden them and society
Idk. Her daughter said she was a very angry miserable mother who lead with aggression during her child rearing years and she beat them constantly.
I named my daughter Zion because of this song. She was born with so many health issues and her name gave her and me the strength we needed to persevere. She is a senior in college and will be 26 in September. Thank you Miss Hill for the inspiration ❤️
for starters, let’s go virgo/lebra! DK which, but aaaaaaayyyy!!!! y’all got this!
I remember exactly where I was when I first heard this song and I melted. This was before I was a parent. Parenthood is not easy but it’s a a blessing.
@vanessagrayman2194 AMEN . 🙏🏽 KID(S) ARE TRULY BLESSING.❤️ 🙌🏽
A mothers love never goes away. 🫶🏼🫶🏼 Beautiful Zion
Not always true...
Zionnnnnnnnnnn yes. Lauren😇🙏💯❗
What a special gift- Your mom is not only one of the most talented, world-renowned VOCALIST BUT she has the world singing your name!!!🎶🎵🎶
Lauren never ever sold her soul ❤
Never ever oh my God he is not cheap and full of substance. What a joy. Love you too.

Okay, not that it truly matters in this case, but the heading seems a little misleading. Love the song!
Being very emotional will interupt your vocal abilities.. I don't know if Lauryn realized this. She seemed to get upset when the pitches were off a little,.. like blaming the band instead of just going with it.
This makes me emotional 😢😢
She made 1 album. But its absolutely amazing and timeless. True beauty. Makes me proud to be black. 💪🏾
Peace and Love to you LH. You have shared your blessings with the world. Thank you. ❤
To all the mothers, you are loved, appreciated and acknowledged. What would we have without you? May the Most High bless and keep you all who, like Lauryn, chose your family over this world. You are a blessing. May the Most High bless you.

NO SMOKING, REST, HUMMING; SINGING LIGHTLY...NODES CAN HEAL.🙌🏽
She's still with us, I believe. No need for past tense.
