Gentleman Album

2010 - people and we still around
open up another chapter (repeat)

rain moon sun passes by
grey blue sometimes the sky
mother earth in pain oh how she cry
behavior like there ain't no tomorrow
from nature take a page and follow
before the road get narrow
straighten up yourself and fly straight just like an arrow
it's we who change and not the time
it seems like we searching for things that we'll never find

(Refrain:)

don't you know there is a reason why we on yah
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
livity and liberty on every corner
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (repeat)

it's not a proper thing
the way you mix up in a lot of tings
tired fi hear your tongue flattering
guns dem chattering
and your bombs still battering
man hafi wonder what's the mattering
send dem soldiers home
too many fatherless children out there on their own
this a no stick and no stone
finger pon the button got we living in a danger zone
sick and mi tired of your war thing
poitics is like duppy it's a permanent haunting
tell dem seh mi nuh stop chanting - chanting
no, no, no

don't you know there is a reason
why we on yah ...

Chorus:
No time like present
There is no time like now
Feel the spirit of Jahoviah
Moving inside you now
No time like present
There is no time like now
Feel the power of almighty
Living inside you wow

Jack Radics:
And then life it is like a river
Sometimes it takes me to places
there Im warm and all
And then it's cold till I shiver
Well, now, but thats just the way it goes

Gentleman:
Sometimes it rapid
Sometimes it steep
Sometimes it bitter sometimes sweet
Sometimes it calm to put we to sleep
Sometimes we hafi cross a bridge that is weak
Sometimes we slip
Sometimes we slide
Sometimes it takes us to the other side
Sometimes it narrow sometimes it wide
Always knowing the most high gonna guide

Chorus

Gentleman:
Dem bury us but like flowers now we grow
Planted by the waters of wisdom you know
Marvel not of things look because it shows
Yesterday becomes today tomorrow goes
If what you seeking is a peace of mind
Blind can't be deaf and the deaf left behind
I beg you open up your eyes mankind
Can't you see we living ina perilous time

Chorus

Yes baby thanks for the way you make me feel
this love feel so real
so real, so real
you know that i will always be around
just keep your feet on solid ground
never will i make you frown


You talk bout those lonley days
cant't stand it being on your own
tell me bout your lonley days
but don't you worry
i'm coming back home
you talking bout lonley days
can't stand it being by yourself
tell me bout your lonley days
you need me and no one else


i understand every word you say
and i've tried my best not to stay away from you
we had come a long way
and i never regret a moment i spent with you
and i will never give you up
no matter what people may say
or what dem wanna do
i know that you miss my touch
just relax for a moment baby girl


You talk bout those lonley days
cant't stand it being on your own
tell me bout your lonley days
but don't you worry
i'm coming back home
you talking bout lonley days
can't stand it being by yourself
tell me bout your lonley days

let me ensure you
baby so you don't have to fret
just remember when we walking
through the valley of dead
when we did down in the struggle
but we still did connect
now we rise above that level
now dem can't intercept
girl i adore you cause you are my greatest asset
and among all the cards you're
the ace in my deck
let me tell you this baby don't you forget

You talk bout those lonley days

can't stand it being by yourself
tell me bout your lonley days
you need me and no one else


and i will never hurt you or desert you
love you from the very day your mama birth you
and i am certain lady virtue
my love is like the moon that's shining through your curtain
remember when we walking through the pathway
out love was like a light
that guides us right through the dark way
and now we walking on broadway
now our love is even brighter

[Intro:]
No more time to waste
And you know just wat to do

And picking up the new
And there is nothing to replace

And even more instore
You have been rich
And you thought you were so poor (changes)

[Outro:]
Yes Don Corleon,
And Gentleman
We earn our future yah
Brrrrr
Boom...

Why we make things so complicated
Seems like we just don't manage to live in peace
What's happening with us
Why you so unkind mankind?
War it have to cease

Why don't you live as one
Regardless where you from
Rise and take a stand
The journey seems extreme
But work towards your dream
Don't you be confused now
Jah is the supreme

Your mood better than your situation
And your situation a cause frustration
Frustration a cause hesitation
Hesitation a cause peer separation
Man hafi go back ins meditation
Meditation give you more inspiration
Inspiration give you more education
Education that a fi all the nation
What a cause so much sufferation
Sufferation only bring devastation
Every day dem a come with new
Legislation and a whole leap of things what i not mention
Mention- the youths nuh have no occupation
Occupation stop the desperation
Desperation is man creation

Why don't you live as one
Regardless where you from
Rise and take a stand
The journey seems extreme
But work towards your dream
Don't you be confused now
Jah is the supreme

And the youths have sense now
Can't trick none a dem like one time
Got to beat dem fence dewn
And walk through the valley with a strong mind
No need to get tense now
You've been doing this thing from a long time
And I'm here now to show dem the way can't
Make dem wait in a lang line

Why don't you live as one
Regardless where you from
Rise and take a stand
The journey seems extreme
But work towards your dream
Don't you be confused now
Jah is the supre

What a gwaan professor
We must get over - we mass get over
Fi the ghetto youth
I know it

Nothing a change
Everything remain the Same
'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer
No food fi days
Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher
Mama bawl out and she call out - call out pon jah
Say she pray every day fi the pain go away
All now she can't get better

Rifle sound- mama tear shed
When she look pon the ground she see peer red
And when she turn around - her son lay dead
Brain shell out in a him body a just peer lead
Nuff things happen through circumstances
While the System designed to hurt your chances
The way of your nine just get you hunted
Hunted - you nuh wanted
Just the under priviliged a get disadvantage
You feel to yourself you're under bondage
When those who you know nuh speak your language
Language - nuh speak your language
All we want is just freedom
When we a go see the day deh
Me and me people dem still a pray
Cause all we see a false promises
Now Mr. Babylon want take all mi hollow premises

Nothing a change
Everything remain the Same
'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer
No food fi days
Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher
Mama bawl out and she call out - call out pon jah
Say she pray every day fi the pain go away
All now she can't get better

Right now mama hungry - and na food can find
Ina me gun me load two carbon
Now me have to touch the street - food have to eat
Mama - you just a one of a kind
So many want to get away - from this way of life
When all dem See around is just guns and knife
A better way - far from pain and strive
Fighting so hard to survive

Nothing a change
Everything remain the Same
'Cuz the ghetto youths dem still a suffer
No food fi days
Instead a life get easy it only get tougher and tougher
Mama bawl out and she call out - call out pon jah
Say she pray every day fi the pain go away
All now she can't get better

If you pick up your nine it goodly end your shine
Now you find out you living a life of pure crime
You don't want to but have to pon the frontline
Frontline - again at the frontline
And the mountain over deh so so hard to climb
Looking for solutions we search to find
Be sharp in this time smart in this time
Find a way to unleash your gold mine
Freedom - that's all in me
Freedom - that's all in me
Now free up all a the ghetto youth dem
We want freedom - that's all in me
Gentleman and professor
I need jah

I see dem standing at densfujdsmc
While the struggle is getting harder
Keep on praying to the father

Every thing you try in a your life
Dem want to stop you
I don t know why but they think they got to
Hold on strong and never let dem flop you
Never let the wicked heart a trap you -
Oh no no no (repeat)

I'm on the move ya know
Must make it true somehow
I got to take it to the top and that's my only vow
And when the heathen range
To me it s nothing strange
You've been trying it so long but still me nuh go change
I tell the youths to pray
Strive for a better days strive for a better way – strive
One day you'II get your pay
No matter what dem say
Cause you got to stay alive

Every thing you try in a your life
Dem want to stop you
I don t know why but they think they got to
Hold on strong and never let dem flop you
Never let the wicked heart a trap you -
Oh no no no (repeat)

Jah jah say throw down your arms and come
Put away your gun
The righteous nuh promote none
It's time to have some fun
Where you ago run run when the creator come
Now me know what you're about
Don't try to get me out
Cause a god alone make the sunshine
Unleash deception from your mouth
Or your fire a go out
Fix up your conscience nuh bad mind

Every thing you try in a your life
Dem want to stop you
I don t know why but they think they got to
Hold on strong and never let dem flop you
Never let the wicked heart a trap you -
Oh no no no (repeat)

I can see the way you living
Your ism and your skism
Show me that you walking on chalkliner
And the very ditch you digging
The games that you rigging
Your told me say you do it more than one time
One day we find our time and place
We doing it with grace
Doing it we own a leisure we nuh ina haze
Sometimes you need your space to trump um an ace
Just remember haze make ways

Every thing you try in a your life
Dem want to stop you
I don t know why but they think they got to
Hold on strong and never let dem flop you
Never let the wicked heart a trap you –
Oh no no no (repeat)

The rat race is on
And now dem can't reach the finish line
Dem get it all and still dem want
Come on diminish mine
On but we think ahead of time
We got the powers and we tell
Dem seh we nuh resign

We got the link ya now
To dem instinct ya now
Dem cannot follow cause we know what dem a think ya now
Wonder what dem drink ya now
We see dem on the brink ya now
It's getting wicked when the paper meet the ink ya now
Dem getting miserable
Cause dem a praise the devil
Dem never try fi view the thing deh pon another level
From seven to seven - eleven to eleven
Nobody wanna die but wanna go to heaven

The rat race is on
And now dem can't reach the finish line
Dem get it all and still dem want
Come on diminish mine
On but we think ahead of time
We got the powers and we tell
Dem seh we nuh resign

Think me nuh know what dem up to
Dem get the chance dem cut you
Nuh watch no face just hold your space
Gas know dem cannot stop you
and they will try to flop you
even counteract you
sometimes you want live in peace but dem interrupt you
love we bring around
No hating around
Take a look ina yourself before you make a sound
up ina jah jah town
Even when dem frown
we will hold it to a level nun we nuh go down
the rat race is an …

Dem say high but dem fi come down from dem altidute
Dem get the riches and dem still nuh feed the multitude
Dem come around and claim seh that dem seeking gratitude
Dem seeking gratitude me wonder what dem hafi proof
Watch how dem come here and a galong with dem attitude
A measure up but dem still nuh check the latitude
Miles away from reality without a root
Dem a deny the truth but tell dem ago face the truth

The rat race is on
And now dem can't reach the finish line
Dem get it all and still dem want
Come on diminish mine
On but we think ahead of time
We got the powers and we tell
Dem seh we nuh resign

Now trouble take you lord a god pickney shut it ago fit you
Now trouble take you lord a god duppy track it well fit you
I just love how the champion sound
Keep playing - keep playing
Hotter reggae matical style dem a flash
'Till a morning - pon the rhythm
With a little a this and a little a that
Listen mi voice through the tweeter box
Sound sweeter with an echo chamber
And don't you know we a the danger

Temper my god this ya sound ina temper
Fever - some other sound bwoy die Ina fever

Me see it ya

Hear the bass a rumble through the speaker - speaker
Top end full of clarity just listen to the tweeter -
Listen to the tweeter

John say him priority is to find a chicitita
and dem want fi rock it all night to the beat ya
When the sound a play dem want fi dance
Off dem feet ya -
Dance off dem feet ya
Tum up da heat ya
Until the sound a start bass up concrete ya
Some a rockaway some a do the gully creeper
Jumpon can't take it sound bwoy a get weaker –
A get weaker

And we no ramp we no joke
We cut sound throat
Skin we no grin we clip dem wing
You listen my sound you gonna get every thing
You got to be conscious in this world we live in
Don't know which sound guy is watching
Ragamuffin sound we a carry the swing

Temper my god this ya sound ina temper
Fever - some other sound bwoy die Ina fever

Don't stop da sound ya cause
Da sound ya hafi play
Turn it up turn it up turn it up louder
A it a rock the people night and day

Hey Babylon nobadda lack down this
Let the people hold a joy and
Everything will be criss
Tell me how can we live under
Your empty promise
You a pressure reggae music and
We just can't stand it
Every dance in the street you want
Run come ban it
But dem nuh stop dem nuclear and atomic
So dem ship it a go sink like the great Titanic
People keep a cool head and don't you panic

I just love how the dancehall girls keep wining –
Ina timing
And dem give me the vibes ina
dancehall everytime
a little a this and a little that
Girls dem bubble like a soup ina pot
Some like it cold some like it hot
Boil like a soup ina pot

Temper my god this ya sound ina temper
Fever - some other sound bwoy die Ina fever

chorus

(Gracias a MeeBoo por esta letra)

Love alone will conquer all
but it takes a litte something
and then it gives a little something
just read the writings on the wall
and then receive a little something
remember to give something

rude boy the war could over
but you still buss that gun people run for cover
if you take your time you'll discover
without the noise oh yes we could rejoice
the taking of a life does it bring you joy
when the only thing what happen that we self destroy
in the making of great undertaking
vision forsaking knees them keep shaking

life Could be a sweet refrain
but the only thing we feel is pain
whe whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it
and as we looking through the picture frame
another melody we must maintain
the whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it

and we heal not by building on lies
but by replacing this synthetic life
with something more appealing
pray for it everytime we're kneeling
only then can we soar above
every gwaan whey a block the love
we all wanna be feeling
instead of this hatred that we're dealing

life could be a sweet refrain
but the only thing we feel is pain
whe whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it
and as we looking through the picture frame
another melody we must maintain
the whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it

what will it take for peace threat to sign again
and what we seek inside seems hard to find mi friend
keep on pushing to the end
broke down de barriers
get up and make we pop down dem fence
tired of being a victim in the making
tired of sitting, waiting, smiling when i'm aching
not happy but i'm faking
underneath the veneer oh my heart is breaking now

life could be a sweet refrain
but the only thing we feel is pain
whe whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it
and as we looking through the picture frame
another melody we must maintain
the whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it

you say you want a lot more love fi grow
but everytime you plant all the seed and it don't sow
can't blame you cause you just do what you do
all the ignorance will come fi over throw
i know it seems like your hearing the same word
it sounds cliche but it still as sure
as the first time you heard it
make no mistake we're all allergic to the verdict
so come make we start to change

big fat lies have been told
got to watch yourself or get caught
ina dem cyber control
don't you lose the side of your goal
meditate and sweep over your soul

life Could be a sweet refrain
but the only thing we feel is pain
whe whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it
and as we looking through the picture frame
another melody we must maintain
the whole world a feel it so how do we heal it
instead a we wheel it make we seal it

(Gracias a sandra por esta letra)

Pack my bag i got to leave once more
Going on tour
To make my family to feel secure
I am out for sure
I take a look through my window
Outside the door
Saying bye to my children
I am out for sure

Now I am going cause I got to go
Sometimes my family don't really know
I coulda find a better way to show
Find a way to stop your tears from flow
Knowing that I got to go
I wish my family could really know
Hoping that they really understand
This is all part of a bigger plan

Nothing what good a come easy
So we keep toil and toil keep toiling away
Some situations it nuh please we
We have to keep working and
Working until that day
Keep moving while them sleeping
My objectives are clear so i have to obey
And no matter what dem say
i got part to play
I'll be back i won't stay

Now I'm going cause i got to go...

Here I am again from place to place
I wish I could be there to wipe those
tears out of your face
from continent to continent
this work is eminent
unconditional this love just can't replace
sometimes it's hard when you're on your own
the kids need a father and you're not at home
you know I'm there ain't going no where
and then you won't be alone

No it no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear

Dem blinded by society
And now dem cant see the quality
Me see dem limited capacity
verbal verbosity
And dem ignorant atrocity
Cant you see it right there

So tell me what a cause so much damn poverty
Tell me why the people dem a lose gravity
It caused by a handful of minority
Who try to pull down the majority

Well this is up to you and me
Make we sit down and talk about long drivity
Sit down and reason conscious livity
Our natural ability
Give thanks for diversity

No it no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear

Somebody tell me what is happening out there
Same old story even though it's a new year
People die every day see dem cry every day
What a burden to bear me yeah...

Me see how you a trick we with your politics of fear
No matter what you do dem always try to smear
And you dem want blame leave you standing in the rain
And I wonder if you hear

So tell me what a cause so much damn poverty
Tell me why the people dem a lose gravity
It caused by a handful of minority
Who try to pull down the majority

No it no pretty out there at all
So many rise so many fall
So many standing in the middle of despair
Nobody care nobody see it clear
No way...

misery been night and day
finally i found my way

from ina the cradle
the lessons that we learn
make us willing and able
now the future got to be earn
be concern
make sure you take the right turn
full time aware of all the bridges that you burn
giving and taking
the moments we don't share
what is in the making whole leap of
envy grudge and fear
don't you care
history repeat right here
now you drowning in the river of tears

open all your windows and your doors
cause we nuh go live the lies no more
nowhere we reaching
with the things that you teaching
a moment of truth for sure

you laughing when we talk of it
as if you're not a part of it
you wheeling and dealing
but that's not even the half of it
back to the beginning
make we speak about the start of it
to manifest intension we need to see the heart of it
talk bout democracy with all your diplomacy
it's just a fallacy this is false reality
but me nuh go make it get to me
the truth about the truth now i can see it's just hypocricy
the wind blows from a far
bringing overstanding ain't no changing
we are what we are
it's not a must we nuh fi spar
but always make dem know say we and babylon a war

open all your windows and your doors
cause we nuh go live the lies no more
nowhere we reaching
with the things that you teaching
a moment of truth for sure

how long you able to hold da tension
underrate depression ina different dimension
excuse me please could i get your full attention
maybe we could benefit from the
words we mention
can't you see say that the signs stand
for a change again
this is up to me and you to rearrange again
every tribulation passes
pump up the music and mobilize the masses

(feat. Christopher Martin)

We can make it if we try

only if we try
hold your head up hold it high

Mankind doings will erase
all the beauty in this place

running out of options it's late

fast forward as the world go round
we have to take time and rejoice now
we never live to see the world go down
search yourself to find your way and pray now (repeat)

a nother victim of the war is the truth
dem fighting over nothing and me see morality dilute
thanks a new day dawining
tell me who will be there at the final calling
it's not you choose to lose
sometimes you get a bruise
life lesson you a learn and now you got to cruise
give a little from time to time
one day you'll find
leaving all your doubts way behind

fast forward as the world go round

we never live to see the world go down
search yourself to find your way and pray now (repeat)

fast forward as the world go round
we have to take time and rejoice now
we never live to see the world go down
search yourself to find your way and pray now (repeat) (repeat)

if we could see it through the eyes of a child
there is no wrong doing not a sinner
and through the eyes of the wicked and wild
whole leap of devastation we see dem ina claim jah jah works ya fi dem own
flattering tongue like a knife cuts you to the bone
once so mighty was rome but one god alone
always and forever pon the throne

fast forward as the world go round
we have to take time and rejoice now
we never live to see the world go down
search yourself to find your way and pray now

fast forward as the world go round
we have to take time and rejoice now
we never live to see the world go down, the world go never live to see the world go down

fast forward as the world go round
we have to take time and rejoice now
we never live to see the world go down
search yourself to find your way and pray now (repeat)

We bringing back the good old days
And then again the good old days
We talking bout the good old days
When the youths dem used to hold a vibe

I remember all the days we used to go up pon a corner
Side the youths and hold a meds and burn the marijuana
There wasn't no fuss there was no time fi drama
The youths dem used to move much calmer
Nowadays a peer war and every youth a buss the lama
A cause peer tragedy and cause peer drama
Whole leap of backbiting and informer
Officer don't lock the sound cause it calm ya

We bringing back the good old days ...

Bang back the vibes cause a so it ti go
Bring back the love and let it echo
Do it already you can do it again
Call upon mi bredgen and mi sistren them
Hands get loose make we tie dem up again
We got this musical foundation to solve the problem
Hold the vibes together can't make the niceness end
I'm remembering those good old days

We bringing back the good old days ...

We can sit down and hold a reason
And we don't have to cuss
We don't have to war and we don't have to fuss
We have he over standing every youth want a bust
Take it easy nuh get caught in a the rush
Tired if see the wrong people in handcuff
Dem try to make a living while the system so rough
Youth nuh bother come here come bluff
Don't come around here come turn no cruff

We got something special girl
We've been together so long
Holding together so strong

Like a rock woman we ready to roll
A fire down in our soul
Temperature rise and we lose control
Even December nights don't feel cold
You make my wings unfold
With you woman I want to grow old
I need your loving like the winter the spring
Always ins mi head like a song that me can't stop sing
And blessing it bring
Never ever ending thing girl

This is everlasting girl
Love stronger than them days before
Singing and rejoicing
And our hearts will fear no more
This is everlasting girl
Let's walk through that open door
Singing and rejoicing
No holding back no more

Come let us spend some quality time
Take the rest off your mind
We are going for the stars and signs
Make we go leave city lights behind
Now that the two of we found love no limit and no borderline
Nothing shall ever separate us
Through those hills and valleys girl nothing ever breaks us
And jah will never forsake us
Cause in true love we put our trust

This is everlasting girl ...

She's just like a breeze
Cooling me down when my life is overheat
Like branches of a tree
Bearing a fruit that is always fresh and sweet
Like the tide is rising flowing
Always on the going
Planting seeds that always will be growing
An endless energy that a the two of we
Into eternity

This is everlasting girl ...

Now me see how dem a moving
Dem a wolf in sheep clothing
And dem not aware about dem doings
Just tell dem come out ya
You nuh see seh Babylon want flood out ya
To much blood out ya

Far away from life
Distant away
Hoping that they will return
Far away from life but until that day
Jah jah fire nuh stop burn
(Repeat)

In the earliest morning we see dem walking about
Congregating with dem friend dem keep talking about
But if we left outta the west we still go find dem a south
Cause a hatred dem a spread with
Every word out of dem mouth
Put my trust Ma the father and me do it without a doubt
And dem try and try again and still dem cyaan get me out
Never lose mi track and no me nuh change mi route
Minds of illusion must get shot out

Far away from life
Distant away
Hoping that they will return
Far away from life but until that day
Jah jah fire nuh stop burn
(Repeat)

So far til some a dem drift to the left
But if dem drift to the right them have no regrets
And dem nuh have no pity and no respect
But we hafi follow through with the trend wha jah set
What you waiting for
Question again why you hating for
Tell mi what is it you hesitating for
You nuh see the golden rule you keep breaking

Far away from life
Distant away
Hoping that they will return
Far away from life but until that day
Jah jah fire nuh stop burn
(Repeat)

Tell dem come out ya too much blood out ya
You nuh see seh Babylon a want to flood out ya
Dem nuh love out ya dem only doubt ya
East west north and south ya
Dem acting proud but a we move the crowd ya
Can't hurt dem people with your oil and your powder
All when louder showing cold shoulder
Dem acting bold but a we a move bolder

No care how big your property
Or real big celebrity
Everybody dem a V.I.P.
When ya R.I.P.

Me see dem gone down a shut eye country
Me glad me nuh dwell down a shut eye country
Dem say heaven and hell in a shut eye country
And when you lose your life you down a shut eye

Ever mister man makes you so rush
Everything you treat it like trash
And now you rampin' like a puppet
Every day you make a nother duppy

Thinking not of tomorrow
I wonder what it is that makes your view so narrow
Every day you get up and your parrot
Not so majestic Mr. King of sorrow

Who sleep but you don't sleep
Got no tears for your eyes to weep
Always on a hide and peep
But your judgment will be sudden and steep
Humble yourself in the eye of the storm
And if you step out of line jah ring the alarm

Me see dem gone down a shut eye country
Me glad me nuh dwell down a shut eye country
Dem say heaven and hell in a shut eye country
And when you lose your life you down a shut eye

Life ain't so demanding
With a hole over standing
Stop your twisting and your turning
All the lessons of life you'll be learning

All and pull mi medi every time dem come round ya
With one bag a noise and not joyful sound ya
Many are your sin so you a fling rock stone ya
And in the middle of the crowd we all alone sah
So humble yourself in the eye of the storm
And if you step out of line jah ring the alarm

Me see dem gone down a shut eye country
Me glad me nuh dwell down a shut eye country
Dem say heaven and hell in a shut eye country
And when you lose your life you down a shut eye

Humble yourself in the rage of the storm
And if you step out of line jah ring the alarm
All manner of things I see a gwaan
You huff and puff but man still hafi calm

The ceiling too low
Time now fi rise up to the fullness
Can't afford to let somebody come pull this

I couldn't sleep last night toss and turning was fed up
The morning rise thunder storm ina me head up
The same old same a recipe me hafi give up
Changing lane that a the way me have to live up
Now that I'm prepared and ready to rumble
Not another second me a waste nuh grumble
Things in life gees around and if the whole world a stumble
Me still a stand fall and nuh fumble

Now me build a bridge over all
Truths and rights shall surely sustain us and rote
Over wall
Rich and poor unknown and famous

Sometimes me have to wonder
What the hell dem thinking
Preparations must be made before the boat is sinking
Lighthouse up ahead life light is blinking
Water all around but hold your breath
Because there ain't no drinking
It nuh pretty pon the shore we know the truth about it
Disguising the game and so you mute about it
Problem never change until we find the root about it
Try it me friend and see the proof about it

Now me build a bridge over all
Truths and rights shall surely sustain us and rote
Over wall
Rich and poor unknown and famous

Sometimes you can't bother but you got to
Caught up in a things you find out you not to
Nuh make no friend no enemy come flop you
Stoned cold we freeze like a statue
And who nuh try to make a progress try to stop you
The sweetest smiling face a set the trap too
Ina the brightness of the day dem all attack you
And even dirty Babylon a fly the flag too

Now me build a bridge over all
Truths and rights shall surely sustain us and rote
Over wall
Rich and poor unknown and famous

No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way
No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga
Mi sing again
No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way
No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga

Oh yes I got love for my people, no grudge for my people
Some success life for my people, both I hope for my people
More life for my people, nuh stray for my people

No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga

Hear dem when dem talk a dem a say dem a di general
Everyday dem get up on dem cause another funeral
Neva tek no time fi grow a shaft inna di mineral
Created pollution with dem chemical
Up inna dem tower weh mi see dem a di liberate
Link up dem link cah di unno dem collaborate
Champaigne poppin badmind dem haffi celebrate
How much more wi haffi tollerate

No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way
No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga
Mi sing again
No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way

Dont play with my people, lay lay with my people
Rememba people are people
Mi sing a song

No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way
No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga
Mi sing again
No time to play, none at all
No time to stray, no way
No time fi wonda, neither pon da, nah go linga

Tell the wicked man on ya
Listen to gentleman and rebellion
Righteousness an every comer
From Gambia to Ghana

Your intentions just fade away
Now you get ready for the real things in a life
Today it is another day
Hold on firm and strive for your right
Keep focused along the way
Don't let dem superstition trick you in a life
And then you'll never gone astray

Can't take the hypocritical double morality
In this ya judgment there is no partiality
Righteousness man a promote but you nuh want to see
Blind man a lead blind what an audacity
Every day dem get up and dem cause another tragedy
Tired fi see we surrounded by brutality
Can't take the ways of dem so called authority
From you know seh it a from the high supremacy

Your intentions just fade away
Now you get ready for the real things in a life
Today it is another day
Hold on firm and strive for your right
Keep focused along the way
Don't let dem superstition trick you in a life
And then you'll never gone astray

Life and energy nuh waste it
Gwaan put your trust ina jah nuh make dem break it
Even though we see seh dem a try to desolate it
Rebellion and gentleman the future we go shake it
Lock up the gun what you have
Like hungry dogs dem a bark
Can't you see seh nuff a dem a skylark
Because the sea full of shark
So we fi gen up and walk
Make dem know seh man a real die hand

Your intentions just fade away
Now you get ready for the real things in a life
Today it is another day
Hold on firm and strive for your right
Keep focused along the way
Don't let dem superstition trick you in a life
And then you'll never gone astray

Remember you got the choice
To fight for the life you want to live
Without these Babylon toys
You got to sharpen up your voice
Revolution in the street tired fi see the
Wicked man a rejoice
Oppressions and lies we no take that no more
Now we stand tall live our lives for sure
Righteousness and God alone man adore
Knock and jah will open up your door — for sure

i am thinking about you
hope love is found you
all the time neglected it's so unfair
and when it surround you
don't let it bound you
but for better days be prepared

i wonder how u doing out there
all the moments u share with the people who nuh even care
reality's like a nightmare
wake up be aware my concern is your welfare
never let dem humiliate you
drown and forsake you
cause me see dem try underrate you
and dem able to hate you but no able to break you
now the table a turn have faith in you

i am thinking about you
hope love is found you
all the time neglected it's so unfair
and when it surround you
don't let it bound you
but for better days be prepared

simplify yourself and try
and find the truth within the lie
purify and live your life
let in the sun and see the light
sometimes you might feel unworthy
unlocking motivation in this unkind world
but in time and along the journey
blessings multiply cause you earn it

i am thinking about you
hope love is found you
all the time neglected it's so unfair
and when it surround you
don't let it bound you
but for better days be prepared

empty promises have paved your way
look how long u a work and wonder when dem about to pay
its hard not to be dismay
it seems like your hopes and your dreams will slip away
good things take time one day the sun ago shine
and yes you can do it if you make up your mind
there is no borderline no right or wrong time
and the future is yours if [when] you're incline
