Eye Of The Beholder Lyrics – Buju Banton
Lovely you are
da da da da da
[Chorus]
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder
Can't say that I haven't told ya
wanted her to be my baby
when she was someone else's lady
beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder
Can't say that I haven't told ya
wanted her to be my baby
when she was someone else's lady
[Verse]
how could i been so blind
wasting so much time
it's like casting my perps aswine
knowing she could never be mine
can't afford to start shaking
gotta look her in the eye
even though my heart is breaking
I can't afford to cry
cause she would know
I have been watching her from a distance
what she wouldn't know
Of my intentions
so i called out to the waiter to offer her a drink
i stopped for a moment then I start to think
she would know
I have been watching her from a distance
what she wouldn't know
Of my intentions
then she moved towards the exit
she hesitated for a bit
turn her eyes in my direction
then made a grip
I think she knows
I have been watching her from a distance
what she wouldn't know
Of my intentions
pretty lady, could i have a word with you
I just want to say
[Chorus]
[Repeat Verse and Chorus]
da da da da da
[Chorus]
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder

Immigration Law Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Intro:]
Crisis
This is a worldwide escapade
Have every massive fraid
Buju Banton did tell yuh already
[Chorus:]
Every nation bow to the immigration law
Immigrant shuffle what a suppen
No more ease up due to a certain clause
Welfare get reform, no more green card
A nuff man nuh realise a time fi come a dem yaad
[Repeat]
[Verse 1:]
Run off to the land of opportunity opportunity
Indeed noone gives away good morning
The capital of greed
Still yuh survive inna Sam
Thru the constant pressure, victimization
Phonso say him did done have a plan
Tell Sonia send hoe him bag and pan
Them hol' on pon Paul, Carl and Devon
Some man who run the place thru dem there so long
Tek dem off a di line without a question
Sen dem right back inna dem born land
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
Tell unno fi come, bout unno nuh ready yet
Only citizens alone shall get a healthy kit
Sam get serious, tighten all loop holes
Woe be unto all petty pushers, so called dupe
Not what yu gained, but what you attained
To live and die in the USA, such a shame
Analyse your imprint with what you have gained
Minimun wage is blood sweat and pain
You take my identity and left me in shame
Oh Jah, oh Jah
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Who tell dem not to respect Sam law
Yuh mean yuh never knoe sey immigration a law
Federal violation of Federal laws
Observe the eagle clenching its claws
To get across this border, keeps getting harder
Even though I've been a resident from a youth
Mi nuh waan yuh handle mi like no pancoot
Dig up mi few possessions and soil up mi suit
Confiscate mi docs without no excuse
[Chorus]

Justice Lyrics – Buju Banton
One man say, restore the peace by any means
Shoot first, then question your enemies
Look how the people been suffrin'
Before now, this a for even more
As they try to mediate between the rich and the poor
Them never used to visit such community
Them never insure them sa-fe-ty
Can you stop the love of the people
Where you know their every cry
Where they all have justice.
Justice
Will the people want an end to brutality
Tell dem all they should respect humanity
When you're out there it's nothing but insanity
You massacre your own and that's the reality
Oh Buju Banton, me don't know partiality...I
Iya Iya Iya, I...
Justice
Now look at the way they treat the people
People of the island can't take this here hassle
Everyday to suffer, is Jah-mon, it is a struggle
Look at how the people them work hard and juggle
Some a dem a hustle, and some a dem a love
Some a dem a brag, and nuff a dem a buss
Listen to the rude boy while I toss
The people they want justice
Justice

And I won't forget (no, noo)
So glad the day we met
Yea...
As I reach how to touch you girl (uhh)
My heart beat mi stay sleep (uuhhhh)
And then I knew that your love I must get
So inviting, so perfect
I could not wait at all
I wanna be there when you call
Don't wanna be left there all by myself
Or lose this feeling to someone else
Just you answer my call
If it take forever I am waiting
Girl I'm trying to do this by the book
Frankly speaking I've got no place else to look and...
[Chorus:]
IIIIIIIIIIII wanna say I love you girl
You make my world (yeah, yeah)
Go round and round you do (oh)
IIIIIIIIIII wanna say I love you girl
Truly I dooooo (oh)
What else can I say to you
[Verse 2:]
All the things you told me (mmmmm)
Gentley she would hold me (yeah)
Always dispensing love (uhhh)
Like an angel from above (hey)
You can safely guard this heart of mine
My eyes are open, I'm no longer blind
How could love be so close
And I let it go (ohhhhhhhhh)
Girl I'm trying to do this by the book
Frankly speaking I have got no place else to look so...
Negus Nagast Lyrics – Buju Banton
Hail Ishmael Wadada
From the Root of David, he's Amlak
Hail Ishmael Amlak
From the Root of the great man Solomon, he's Rasta
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Jah!
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Jah!
When I saw more than twenty thousand chariots
And their leader, yes, he was the great Tekla Haimanot
And they were going, Lord
Singing such a sweet song
I could not overstand
But I heard the voice of the clergy man
When he said
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Jah!
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Yeah!
But it was written in the faith and he goes
Telling the bear and eagles
False unto man and man
And such and such and such
Saying We should live upright
Oh, should not fight and fuss
Deliveror must be clean
And thus and thus and thus
O Buju Banton, lip of brass
Then I saw the man with the golden cross
As he went down into the water
Behold the sands he trod
I could not repeat afterwards
He said
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Ja!
IGZIABEHER! Yah!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Yeah!
Well, they're all dressed in white
Woman and man on every side
Children all were there
Feeling joy in side
And then the champions reign
They prayed, I sang
In their mouths they tipped a little wine and dread
And they remember
Every word the Great One said
From priest to prophet
Abraham right down to Zed
All my people, you should be there to behold
The sight I have seen
Oh it's gonna run could never to-o-o-o
Well, why, why, wo-o-o-o-o
IGZIABEHER!
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
(Lord of lords) Jah!
IGZIABEHER!

In dreams I saw
More than twenty thousand chariots
And their leader, yeah, was the great Tekla Haimanot
Trod they were going
Chanting such a sweet song
I could not overstand
But I heard the voice of the clergy man
When he said
IGZIABEHER!
Behold, He is the beginning and the end
The Alpha and Omega
(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!
Behold, He come into life in brimstone and fire
(Lord of lords) Jah!
Igziabeher!...
From the Root of David, he's Amlak
Hail Ishmael Amlak

Queen And Lady Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. Beres Hammond)
[Buju:]
Lady Love!
This woman she's like a blessing from above.
Got to let dem know dat.
[Beres:]
Talking about you..
Might as well I tell you about the thoughts that I've been hiding,
A list so long I hardly know where to start (lady love).
Don't be offended if I tell you you're a helluva kind a woman
And you do something special to my heart.
I see you as a queen and a lady, no ifs, no buts, no maybe.
The only thing sweeter than my honeycomb.
Keep up as the same queen and lady,
Keep it standing steady, the only thing sweeter than my honeycomb.
[Buju:]
Watch yah,
This man won't stand the every day dissing.
Woman reminiscing whole month she been missing.
Committing di ultimate sin
When a yu mi entrust with safe keeping every single thing.
When mi think yu lef di boy gal yu still deh wid him
Sneaking around privately meeting.
Must did tell yu seh di doop is sleeping.
Thru mi love yu so much an mi nuh want do nothing.
I going put yu under manners with sweet discpline.
[Beres:]
And now let me tell you what a joy it is to have you
And no two people in the world could be the same. (Lady love).
You provide me with inspiration.
I know I'm in the right direction.
You're always there come sun come ah rain.
See you as a queen and a lady no ifs, no buts, no maybe.
The only thing sweeter than my honeycomb.
keep up as the same queen and lady keep it standing steady,
You're the only thing sweeter than my honeycomb.
[Buju:]
Caan watch the finance things nuh all that balance
Through the grace of the lord we shall find our bread.
Baby love nuh make the lack of funds get to yuh head
What provide is enough don't have no reason fi beg.

Runnin' (From Tha Police) Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., Yaki Kadafi, Stretch)
One time, one time nigga one time! (Where?)
Runnin' from the police (Yeah I know what you mean)
No matter what I do, they got a nigga
Still runnin' from the police
(Put them motherfuckin Nike's on tight and get ghost y'all)
[Young Hollywood:]
I ain't got nuttin on my mind, but gettin in some trouble
Lickin shots to they block leavin bloody blood puddles
For some ridah delight, now we in a gunfight
I can shoot the gauge pebbles at the devils or die tonight
It's on me, but if I die bury me a motherfuckin G
A open casket on them bastards so they all remember me
With my vest on my chest, my tools and my piece
Thug Life motherfucker gotta me runnin' from the police
[K-Dogg:]
Nigga, you know that's true
Catch a nigga like K-Dog, chillin with a crew
Every damn day parlay with my glass of Re
The O.J. and it's all OK
'til that fuckin fake cop got to play the man
Ran me down the block with my glass in my hand
Damn, I hope it don't spill
Nigga chill, shit is real cock back my steel
[Big Malcolm:]
Still runnin' from the police I gets no sleep
I got you peepin in my window while I'm smokin indo
But I ain't no motherfuckin track star, pig's got a Jeep
Like Big Mouth, runnin through motherfucker's backyards
So I, grabs my piece before I flee
And instead of me runnin', these bitches is runnin' from me
Lick shots hits spots off on my piece
Cause a nigga like Big Mouth is through runnin' from the police
[Interlude: Buju Banton]
I bust off! What about the time they pull me from the Bronco
Lay, they tried to cock me, but them can't gun store
When a batty bwoy do it from the mob
Ahh, pull up your pants then you screw an left squad
Look around, look around, punk police
While gwan man doesn't a come but a bad boy test
Look around, look around, punk police
Me hafta blast back, cause de blast is best
[Stretch:]
Yo I was, schemin and fiendin for loots and took the crooked route
To, ghetto fame I felt the pains and now I run the game
The insane brain, cold gettin fly like a plane
On them suckers with my nigga Biggie Smalls causin ruckus
[Notorious B.I.G.:]
Check it, I grew up a fuckin screw-up
Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin blew up
Choppin rocks overnight
The nigga Biggie Smalls tryin to turn into the black Frank White
[Stretch:]
And we got the workers choppin rock, Benz by the flock
And we gettin it, the dirty cops are jealous so they sweatin it
I'm lettin off smoke, hope they don't play me for no joke
And provoke the homicide, so just let the drama slide
We keepin it real, fuck how you feel, Biggie pass the steel
Let's serve these motherfuckers slugs as a fuckin meal
[Notorious B.I.G.:]
We had to grow dreads to change our description
Two cops is on the milk box missin
Show they toes you know they got stepped on
A fist full of bullets a chest full of Teflon
Run from the police picture that, nigga I'm too fat
I fuck around and catch a asthma attack [heavy breathing]
That's why I bust back, it don't phase me
When he drop, take his glock, and I'm Swayze
Celebrate my escape, sold the glock, bought some weight
Laid back, I got some money to make, motherfucker
[Interlude: Buju Banton]
Now it's war, me tryin to sell, runnin from the punk po-lice
They try to cock me, but them can't gun store
What about they come to hold up me North
Pulled up the park, I left school and left buck
Look around, look around, punk police
Was about to blast with ya gun but you can't stop me
Look around, look around, punk police
Me haf to blast back, cause blast back best
[2Pac:]
They got me runnin' from the five-oh
Duckin and dodgin in my survival
The Benzo and I let off with my nine, hoe
I'm movin swifter than the next nigga, no time for sex
Cause in my mind all I wonder is who's next
Nigga, my homey slipped and now he pays the price
He did a driveby, sixteen, now he's doin triple life
Tell me is it me or my upbringin, I spit that thug shit
Nigga motherfuck singin, I hope you got your Timberlands
On tight, cause I ain't givin up
I'd rather duck these motherfuckers all night
I'm runnin' through the projects, beyotch
They'll never catch me
Cause I'm loc'd and trigger happy on the, sneotch
Don't say you never heard of me, til they murder me, I'm a legend
Do Thug Niggas go to heaven?
I'm rollin with the thorough heads
We gettin ghost on them hoes and yo
I got no love for the five-oh I'm runnin' from the police
[Outro: Buju Banton to fade]

Sleepless Nights Lyrics – Buju Banton
Something is wrong I see it in your eyes (your eyes)
Ohhh Girl
Where is the joy where is your big broad smile
Ohh who who who
Seems you don't trust me anymore
Showing signs I've never seen before
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I?
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen
And to erase the mistakes of life and amend
If I had a chance to do it again
Id right the wrongs that your little heart
Would not be singing sad songs
All the pain is all the past
That grows and die like grass
I don't ever want to live without you ohhhh
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I?
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't love me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen before
Ahhh ahhh (could I would I) ahhh ahhh
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I have never seen (before)
These are restless and sleepless nights
Alone I cry
You're not around me to confide
Because of your pride
I tried you said I lied ohhhh
So fed up I'm sick and tired
Ohhh I say
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen
And to erase the mistakes of life and amend
If I had a chance to do it again
Id right the wrongs that your little heart
Would not be singing sad songs
All the pain is all the past
That grows and die like grass
I don't ever want to live without you ohhh
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I?
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't love me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen before
Ahhh ahhh (could I would I) ahhh ahhh ohhh
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen before
Ohhh Girl
Where is the joy where is your big broad smile
Ohh who who who
Seems you don't trust me anymore
Showing signs I've never seen before
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I?
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen
And to erase the mistakes of life and amend
If I had a chance to do it again
Id right the wrongs that your little heart
Would not be singing sad songs
All the pain is all the past
That grows and die like grass
I don't ever want to live without you ohhhh
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I?
How will I know if I don't try?
Must I deny?
Clearly you don't love me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I've never seen before
Ahhh ahhh (could I would I) ahhh ahhh
Clearly you don't trust me anymore ahhh
Showing signs I have never seen (before)
These are restless and sleepless nights
Alone I cry
You're not around me to confide
Because of your pride
I tried you said I lied ohhhh
So fed up I'm sick and tired
Ohhh I say
Baby on my own I should get by
Could I would I
How will I know if I don't try?

Who Say (Big Man Nuh Cry) lyrics - buju banton (feat. Beres Hammond)
Watch this Beres!
Woman sing all about dere wanting this
Hear why!
Thought I could live without you (Eh-eh)
Thought everything would be fine
Saw nothing special about you
But still you were plauging my mind
I used to take you for granted
You were the last name in my life
Presently you're the most wanted
At the top of my life
And it was yesterday when
I saw you down my lady
You were with my best friend (Jealousy reign)
All ((trop-a-tane?)) (Talking game) (And!)
And now I'm falling in love
All over again, yeah
How could I ever doubt
That you were my friend (I'm)
Falling in love (Falling)
All over again (Over and over - Watch this!)
How could I ever doubt
That you were my friend (Beres!)
Who
Say that big man dont cry
Yuh never miss di water
Till yuh well run dry
Could yuh find it in yuh heart
To give me one more try
I wont abuse the situation
This time I wont lie
By mi nightly conversation
Also mi lullaby
Well she squeeze orange juice
An mi eggs well fried
Garments well cleaned
From mi socks to mi tie
She's a friend, also a lover
Dat mean me not feel shy
Me express meself
Straight up to the sky (Oh)
Who
Say that big man dont cry
Yuh never miss di water
Till yuh well run dry (Me say)
Who say that big man dont cry
Now I'm falling in love
All over again (Its only natural)
How could I ever doubt
That you were my friend (Eh-eh)
(But I'm) Falling in love
All over again (As I was saying)
How could I ever doubt
That you were my friend (Watch this!)
Woman unleash all yuh sweet chat
An how yuh massage mi back
Heap on mi advices
(A jan tar?) mi get dat
Woman want affection
So me dem fill up pon
Through mi ignorance
Mi never understand
I gwan take time out
To show me love motion
An make yuh know we cyaan
Stop correspond
I am di greatest loverboy
In all di island
Put on ya slipper
Put time ya gwan run
Hear me out
Woman I'll make you understand
Even the wisest man
The great King Solomon
Hear 'bout him dickie
And get a run back
Dats how him lost his thought
Inna di great Babylon
(So me say)
Who
Say that big man dont cry
I learn the hard way
Woman dont ask me why (Oh)
Who say that big man dont cry
Come down Beres Hammond
Come tell the world why
And now I'm falling in love
All over again, yeah
How could I ever doubt (How could I)
That you were my friend (He's a friend also a lover)
I'm falling in love ((Never could dem fool dem bowcat?))
All over again
How could I ever doubt
That you were my friend (Watch this!)
All over the earth
Di woman dem god bless
Upon di laugh fi man
Di man a make dem tax it
One time yuh hurt dem feeling
And make dem flex
But a making a part
That is the greatest
Dis cause matters ((over cuppa))
Tell ya kiss and caress
Waan buju Banton
Dem make yuh ask fi best
(Tell me) Who
Say that big man dont cry
I've learned the hard way
Dont ask the DJ why
Who
Say that big man dont cry
Dont make me ask him
Beres him no stop cry
Woman sing all about dere wanting this
Hear why!
Thought I could live without you (Eh-eh)
Thought everything would be fine
Saw nothing special about you
