AGELESS TIME lyrics - Buju Banton
And it make you think about all this darkness around us
And you aks
Right now for clarity
Shine your light
Freedom's being forfeited and movements dormant
You question existence from your mind, four corners
You would if you could, or you might turn this darkness into light
Grandstanding, outstanding, the promo, the branding back-masking
Hiding what you really wanna say
The pain and the anguish, the soul that's now tarnished, seek only light from source far way
Ageless time, could you remind this simple child
Of the way things were when all was all wrapped up in love?
Ageless time
Please remind
This simple child
Of the way things was when everything was wrapped up in love
Financial depression
Legal oppression
Government overreach
All cloak in black with a sinister plot
They practice what they don't preach
Workers underpaid, screw your minimum wages
Everyone needs an increase
They have destroyed life now what they seek
Oh, ageless time
Kindly remind
Me of the way things used to be
Let the world see
Don't ever let me worry
Don't let me repeat, yeah
Of the way things was
When everything was all wrapped up in love
Ageless time
LIFE CHOICES lyrics - Buju Banton
Life choices, true sacrifices
So many voices accept when there is crisis
The lifestyle, the struggles and vices
The entire cake, or you want the slices
Secret dealings, major surprises
Slow to the top, or meteoric rising
A real hood chick, or one that does tidings
Rolling, you hear that
Allow me to think for myself
Too important to leave that to anyone else, yeah-ah
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
No
Can't leave that to anyone else
Can't leave that to anyone else
Decision making rather breathtaking
Meanwhile you're climbing, stand firm on your faith
Stressful relation can be heartbreaking
Stumbling blocks will be in your way
Lock the door on all outside influence
Things some boy a pree, when it don't really make sense
Too much bitches make you end up in an entanglement
Keep your eyes on the prize and not the heathens
Allow I to think for myself, yeah-ah
Too important to leave that to anyone else, no, oh
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
Alright
Something you gonna rise, something you fall
Some are just idiots who can't think at all
And if you follow them you stall
Keep your eyes on the prize and your foot on the ball
Tuning to Buju Banton, move and roam your dancehall
Make a tell you what a going on
Keep you mind firm, youths stand tall
Don't let them make you put your back again that wall
Allow me to think for myself, eh
Too important to leave to anyone else, yeah-ah
Allow I to think for I man self, yeah
Can't leave that to anyone else
No
Can't leave that to anyone else
Can't leave that to anyone else
BORN FOR GREATNESS lyrics - Buju Banton
This requires extraordinary finesse
This is something special
You should all be a witness
I I I I was born for greatness
I I I I won't forget this
Superstar supercar supermodels
I'm beyond that level
You wont get me startled
I I I I was born a rebel
I I I I so don't get comfortable
I don't follow you rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
We coming in thousands and ten folds
I don't follow you rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
Coming in thousands and ten folds
Mayday mayday we're about to crash the party
No apology this time very sorry
Got to move show me what you can do
Nobody judging you just light a fuse
When this is over we start a new chapter
World is a stage and everyone is an actor
So I keep it real and show my true character
I I I I was born for greatness
I don't follow your rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
We coming in thousands and ten folds
I don't follow your rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
Coming in thousands and ten folds
I don't follow your rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
We coming in thousands and ten folds
I don't follow your rules
I guess I am lawless
Still making big moves regardless
It's above your pay grade
So let it go
I I I I was born for greatness

YARD AND OUTTA ROAD lyrics - Buju Banton
Every man struggle different
When rain falls, all house wet up
Yard and outta road is not the same
You nah have no weapon
You nah have no money no fame
Integrity, ya word means the most
Plus a good pair of fists fi defend your street game
Some turn to bottles, some turn to drugs
Some lose everything and still show love
From the other side, I ill up ever jitter bug
El Salvador and Michoacán thugs
To shot callers who run every yard
Keep it real one thousand, dawg
Sirenious Pisa's still going hard
To the homies not coming home
I pray to the Lord
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
All those days
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
Those dark days
Now
Mi drop a road and them a say mi fresh
Never see the days when everything was a mess
Our workout, we use fi cope with the stress
Elevate ya mind fi achieve greatness
People say much and other people say less
But all now none of them can't curse what god bless
Mi lose those friend but it's not really a loss
And most of mi gyal, them never hold the pause
Now them look forward 'cause I'm back with a blast
A different ting oh dey pon
Send commiseries, mandem masses will off
Before you know it time pass
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
All those days
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
Those dark days
Yard and outta road is not the same
You nah have no weapon
You nah have no money, no fame
Integrity, ya word means the most
Plus a good pair of fists fi defend your street game
Some turn to bottles, some turn to drugs
Some lose everything and still show love
From the other side, I ill up ever jitter bug
El Salvador and Michoacán thugs
To shot callers who run every yard
Keep it real one thousand, dawg
Sirenious Pisa's still going hard
To the homies not coming home
I pray to the Lord
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
All those days
If I could go over
Inside my head
All those days
Those dark days
BODY TOUCHING BODY lyrics - Buju Banton (feat. Victoria Monét)
Light the candles
Turn the music down
Come close to me
Alright
Body touching body, there is no word to be said
Started inna the driveway but we never make the bed
Run my fingers down from ya shoulder to your leg, I wanna
Take my time and gently spread
Vicki and Buju a-go ride and glide, oh
Express and show me how you feel inside, oh
Nuttin' to hide, arms open wide
Come closer, baby, let's take a ride
As long as I'm with you
I want a life with you
Bonnie and Clyde with you
So I never have to miss you
I'll spend my life with you
Oh, what a life with you
Bonnie and Clyde with you
So I never have to miss you
Passion a-bust like the bubbles inna your bath
Feel it inna your soul, inna your mind, inna your heart
Miserable when we are apart
Hope you're not here to play games with my heart, you hear that?
Tough on the outside but inside, she soft
The cutest thing is when she smile and she laugh
The moments of pleasure, so tender, so soft
Safe inna me arms, no worries
As long as I'm with you
I want a life with you
Bonnie and Clyde with you
So I never have to miss you
I'll spend my life with you
Oh, what a life with you
Bonnie and Clyde with you
So I never have to miss you
After a long day, on a late night
We can take time, I'ma make time
Under the moonlight, on my bedside
I only want you on my waistline
After a long day, on a late night
We can take time, I'ma make time
Under the moonlight, on my bedside
I only want you on my waistline
I only want you on my waistline
I only want you on my waistline
TURN UP TONIGHT lyrics - Buju Banton
Rolling with a couple hard head bangers and a shorty
Hit the circuit tonight, about half a dozen party
Turn up tonight
Mi a man who love girl that look right
Sit down and watch your body whine all night
Girl, the way you do your ting, you make mi whole head hurt me
Reputation out there is that you do man dirty
Girl child but mi no care 'bout that, a jus a vibe
Truth be told, put feelings aside
I never met a woman who a virgin over thirty
Them a tell mi, mi no good enough
Mi a not for you
Up and down all your friends, them a swear
Them a send all things to you
A way them a do
Baby girl, I don't care
Every man a bet who gonna get
Who ago run, who ago rep
Who she ago run to, who she ago left
Fox ever despise we dem can't get
You listen Gargamel a give you the real, a telling you
Rolling with a few hard head bangers and a shorty
Hit the circuit tonight, about half a dozen party
Turn up tonight
Mi a man who love girl that look right
Sit down and watch your body whine all night
Girl, the way you do your ting, you make whole head hurt me
Baby, what you doing? Take time, scream
Real hot girl, epitomize top team
Symbolise that trophy wife, nuff boy a dream
Fling up the loving and deal with it mean
You have proper table manners, name clean, you don't eat out
You set a standard above the cloud, you them talk 'bout
They say that you're so sharp, never on a lock
Couldn't stop you because you're so smart
They say that you're a dream
Aww, they love your team
Do they really say what they mean?
Rolling with a few hard head bangers and a shorty
Hit the circuit tonight, about half a dozen party
Turn up tonight
Mi a man who love girl that look right
Sit down and watch your body whine all night
Girl, the way you do your ting, you make whole head hurt me
SWEETER lyrics - Buju Banton
Our love is classic, yet our disagreements are epic
Let's find some resolve
Come with me
After the fight
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Ooh, oh
Put anger aside
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Yeah
Lose control, make you scream and swear
From that sort of energy, you need to stay clear
Constant accusing when I'm not there
Take a lot more than words to show that you care
Making up the sweetest, nothing but your sweetness
Touch and caress, kisses mingle with tears
Speak soft and gentle make it easy to bare
Try to reassure her that you're not going nowhere
It's alright, yeah
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Yeah
Put anger aside
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Ooh, oh
Step on roses, candle round bath
Whole place scented, ambiance soft
Champagne a chill with champagne glass
I don't wanna fight, let's meet up and talk
I know some knives will cut you, but some word sharp
And if words cannot offend, why does it hurt heart?
Cannot let stupidity tear us apart
Baby, baby, baby
After the fight
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Ooh, oh
Put anger aside
Love shall be sweeter tonight
After the fight, yeah
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Ooh, oh
Put anger aside
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Yeah, after the fight
Love shall be sweeter tonight
Ooh, oh
FEEL A WAY lyrics - Buju Banton (feat. Stephen Marley)
Happy like a lark
This girl make me can' t talk
Girl, a Stephen Marley send come call me
Girl, I'm so glad that I got you active in my life
Not a statue to all my time, I just got to
Need to be together, girl, could not be no other way
So incline to pop the question
Make a move before you lose her to a next man
Been together so long and the body so strong
She'll always be mine
Care not what you do, never gonna leave you
Run out on you, baby, never gonna do that
Treat your heart rash, need it with a love patch
Such a crazy feeling, girl, I know, it all match
It's a wonder no other fi watch

Baby-girl, don't worry 'cause a love it, love it, love It
Yes, girl, I love it like that, alright
'Cause I can't wait to get up with you
Girl, you bring such good energy

Not a mind puzzle with many attitude
Twist out a shape obtused
Want a good woman, not one who a look man to use
Loving not involve no mental abuse
A nuff girl a look, but me politely refuse
When I'm with you, girl
The sun never set, expectations met
Care not what you do, never gonna leave you
Run out on you, baby, never gonna do that
Treat your heart rash, need it with a love patch

Said I feel some kinda way
Feel a way, feel a way
Said I feel some kinda way
PLANS lyrics - Buju Banton
Do you have plans tonight?
Girl, you need to let me know
What are your plans tonight?
Is the vibes high or low?
I wanna know
Mood is transient, it comes and go
Man a thug, thug who a roll with the flow
Want to see you inna sunshine rain or snow
Me pull off already, so don't try tell me, "No"
With work I've been busy, plus a lot of stage show
At times it even feel like my cup overflow
But there is just one thing I want you to know
Aye, I want you to know
When we are apart
You are always in my thoughts, yeah
When we are apart from each other
Know you're in my heart, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Baby girl, tonight the freeway is crazy
Riding through a storm, please stay with me
Try my best just to get home quickly
Meet me at the door, wear something sexy
Talk to me, baby
A who a text mi?
I guess you must be chilling with your homegirl, Lexi
I know a place that's open
Let's grab something, and catch up on time
When we are apart
You are always in my thoughts, yeah
When we are apart from each other
Know you're in my heart, yeah
Do you have plans tonight?
Girl, you need to let me know
What are your plans tonight?
Is the vibes high or low?
I wanna know
Mood is transient, it comes and go
Man a thug, thug who a roll with the flow
Want to see you inna sunshine, rain or snow
Me pull off already, so don't try tell me, "No"
With work I've been busy, plus a lot of stage show
At times it even feel like my cup overflow
But there is just one thing I want you to know
Aye, I want you to know

You are always in my thoughts, yeah
When we are apart from each other
Know you're in my heart, yeah
Ooh, yeah
NUFF LOVE FOR YOU lyrics - Buju Banton
No I don't, no I don't
No I don't, no I don't, no
No I don't, no I don't
Ohh
I don't mind
All the sweet things I do for you
Why should they be concerned
They don't know what we've been through
Space and time
Many prove false, others came through
Oh, my love
Listen to what I have to say to you
Honey, believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Just you believe what I tell you when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Please, believe what I tell you when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Oh, my love
So much love for you
I sat and I aksed myself, how could this be?
I gave my heart to you, you gave your love to me, yeah
Human beings can be funny, I'm not perfect, but honey
I'm telling you, I'ma telling you exactly how I feel
Woman, believe what I tell you when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Just you believe what I tell you when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Honey, believe what I tell you when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Oh, my love
So much love for you
How can I make excuse for all of my mistakes?
How can I make excuse for all the hearts I've, ooh-ooh-ooh?
How can I speak to you when you won't even answer?
Showed up at your place, you would not even see my face, yeah
Nothing hurts like when love's gone wrong
Love's gone wrong
She sits alone, playing love songs
She don't want to talk, no communication
She don't want to see my face, no, no, no, no, no
Woman, believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Just you believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Honey, believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Oh, I do, girl I do
So much love for you
I don't mind
All the sweet things I do for you
Why should they be concerned?
They don't know what we've been through
Space and time
Many prove false, others came through
Oh, my love
These words I must say to you
Honey, believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Just you believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Please, believe what I tell you, when I tell you that I have
Nuff love for you
Oh, my love
So much love for you
WALKED OUT lyrics - Buju Banton
Baby, I'm not crazy at all
Oh
When she walked out my life
Out of my life
Hurt so much, I nearly lose my mind
How could love be so unkind?
Be so unkind
Was all that we share a big waste of time?
All these memories still reign supreme
We were so close, nothing came between
I saw your face but it was just dream
Still can't figure out what it all mean
Some relations are not what it seem
Love did bubble, now lost it steam
Lust or passion, what does it all mean?
Is there any chance this love can redeem?
When she walked out my life
Out of my life
Hurt so much, I nearly lose my mind
How could love be so unkind?
Be so unkind
Was all that we share was just a waste of time?
Oh, girl
Really nobody don't know
When the going was slow
When we sell what we have and eat what we grow
When it was just you and I in the same boat a row
How come you want to diss me when things get slow?
I could never treat you no other way
Me and you together, going all the way
Love at first sight, missing from the first day
Ramp with me ruff, give me your childish play
Put on something sexy, babe, clean and sway
Blunt one up your sofa, me forget the ashtray
I'll be your weather man, your forecast today
Wet, sunshine, not cloudy
When she walked out my life
Out of my life
Hurt so much, I nearly lose my mind
How could love be so unkind?
Be so unkind
Was all that we share a big waste of time?
Oh, girl
All these memories still reign supreme
We were so close, nothing came between
I saw your face but it was just dream
Still can't figure out what it all mean
Some relations are not what it seem
Love did bubble, now lost it steam
Lust or passion, what does it all mean?
Is there any chance this love can redeem?
How could you walk out my life?
Out of my life
Hurt so much, I nearly lose my mind
How could love be so unkind?
Be so unkind
Was all that we share a big waste of time?
WE FIND A WAY lyrics - Buju Banton
We hold our head high
With strength and resilience and persistence and perseverance
We endeavour
To do our best, failure never, no
The hurdles we surmount in our day to day life
Are impossible but we do
The Lord wins
Fear not the darkness, nor the deeds of the heartless
Morning always come, in spite of all that happens the night
We've learned a lot, we've tried and fail
Get back on track, won't be derailed
Through stormy seas this ship has sail
We survive, still, we prevail
We find a way, yeah
We find a way
Impossible is nothing to accomplish
So, we find a way
We lift our head, let hope ignite
They have tried to keep us under
But we know we shall rise, yeah
What will you do to help your fellow man?
Every time we find the answer, they're quick to change the question
Let us start with love
That bond that heals the nation
Transcends throughout the world, touching every generation
What are we living for, if not for a better tomorrow?
Wherever we lead, they'll follow
The children are the future
Come on, children
We find a way, yeah
We find a way, oh
Impossible is nothing to accomplish
So, we find a way
We find a way
Come on, come on
We find a way
Impossible is nothing to accomplish
So, we find a way
MY MICROPHONE lyrics - Buju Banton
Ooh-ooh, ayy
My microphone is my only defence
Here we reminisce on the good and the bad, yeah
What we have and what we had
Right now don't bother me
Please go away
Watching these ladies
Ooh, Lord
That's all I've got to say
Mm, alright
That's all I've got to say
Mm, alright
Leave let me think
I wanna enjoy my drink
And I must find the perfect words to say
While her body sways
Yeah, mm
Another smile and a wink
I know what she's got coming
And I don't want you all up in my face, no
Spoiling a good thing
I beg you don't bother me, not right now
I beg you, go your way
Watching these ladies
Ooh, Lord
That's all I have to say
Look there
Look there
Look there
There is someone beside her, it seems they're holding hands
Wishing he would walk away so I could get my chance
I wanna formulate my thoughts whatever her response
Comport myself with tact and skill and then make my advance, yeah
Go away, don't bother me, go away
Watching these ladies
Ooh, Lord
That's all I have to say
Make your move
Excuse me lovely lady, may I have this dance?
Could not resist temptation so I took my chance
Across the room my eyes met yours, could not avert the glance
I search the world and there is none, London, Rome and France
Listen
Don't bother me, not right now
Please go away
Watching these ladies
Ooh, Lord
Is all I've got to say
What does she need?
She could take a little fix up, fix up
Aright, a little fix up, fix up
Around there, need a little fix up, fix up
Alright
We don't have to argue don't have to fight
Just don't bother me
Please go away

TRIAL BY FIRE lyrics - Buju Banton
Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written?
Mountains we have climbed
Oh, the odds we defied
Through the test of times
My people are defined
Through the years we've grown
We already know
To unify this division
I must take the throne, yeah
I call on you, my father
I may need your guidance
Protect me on this journey
If they should follow me
We claim the victory
Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written in the stars?
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Grant me the power
To do the best I can
This mere feat is not attempted
By an ordinary man
Child of a queen
The wisdom of a king
Fearless in battle
The warrior I am
The flame burning inside
You'll never conquer, conquer
The Ancestral plane
That's my father's place
Won't be captive in my land
No time and place
Oh, my people, it is time
We won't stop until it's over
Stand your ground as soldiers
We fight for glory
Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written in the stars?
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
It's written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
LET MY PEOPLE GO lyrics - Buju Banton
Set the people free
Let my people go
The whole world is in bondage
Let my people go
Tell these tyrants to let go
Let my people go
What remains they will not be able to salvage
Let my people go
They shall be riot, and rooting, and raving, and ravaged
Let my people go
They control the whole world
There's no one to stop them
They fiddle while the world burns
Creating stress and problems
Chaos on a global scale
Were created only by a few
Nothing to do with I and I
But involve I man and you
Oh
Tribal war created for money
Let my people go
Lord
This blood march you create ain't funny
Let my people go
What I'ma say it is so real
Let my people go
You might see my face but you never feel what I feel, nah
Let my people go
We're all in this thing together
We're all that we have let's stay together
My people we're all in this thing together
And we're all that we have so let's stay together
Politicians have them on a limb
Let my people go
The foreign exchange how it came in
Let my people go
Then how much them bring come and how much you bring
Let my people go
To you I might not saying much
But they know I'm saying some real thing
Let my people go
Only unity can make we open up our eyes
We have to galvanize, yes, we have to organize
Stop swallow the narrative, the one bag a noise
Them think we don't recognise when them a try devise
Them always scandalize
Tell lot a lies on we
They don't want us energized
Controlling us with lies
In the words of Marcus Mosiah
Let my people go
Ooh, yeah
Mind lightning catch the world on fire
Let my people go
If you're not ready we're gonna take it much higher
Let my people go
Oh
Burn all the weak out burn all vampires
Let my people go
They control the whole world
There's no one to stop them
They fiddle while the world burn
Creating problems and problems
Ooh, yeah
Chaos on a global scale
Were created by a few, yeah
Nothing to do with I and I
But it involves I and you
Ay
Tribal war created for money
Let my people go
Ooh, yeah
This blood march you created ain't funny
Let my people go
Ooh
Oh, Mama, oh, Mommy
Let my people go
Lord, where can we feed these hungry babies?
Let my people go

Buried Alive lyrics - Buju Banton
Oh Lord
I was buried alive but I'm still breathing
I don't know what tomorrow may bring but I got a feeling
I am alive, there must be a reason
I was given one more chance, my heart still beating
Buried alive but I'm still breathing
I don't know what tomorrow may bring but I got a feeling, alright
Now I am alive, there must be a reason
I was given one more chance, my heart still beating
Now all this time, I've been blind
Only running against the wind
Friends of mine, pass with time
After living a life of sin
Some nearly give up, many give in
It's my determination to win
I survived the worst of times
I survived
I was buried alive but I'm still breathing
I don't know what tomorrow may bring but I got a feeling, alright
Now I am alive, there must be a reason
I was given one more chance, my heart still beating, oh
They made a ditch for one
But there would be two
In their attempt to out my life
The wicked things they do
But Jah made I brave
And I can't care the grave
The Lord is my salvation
Of whom shall I fear?
I was buried alive but I'm still breathing
I don't know what tomorrow may bring but I got a feeling, alright
Now I am alive, there must be a reason
I was given one more chance, my heart still beating
One more time
I said, buried alive but I'm still breathing
I don't know what tomorrow may bring but I got a feeling, alright
I am alive, there must be a reason
I was given one more chance, my heart still beating
My heart still beating
My heart still beating
My heart still beating

Memories lyrics - Buju Banton & John Legend
What shall I do
You confess to me that you feel the same way too girl
Girl come forth and rock my world
I guess I am not over you like I thought I was
Guess I was fooling myself, cause I'm still in love
Still in love with you woman, I still have dreams of you and I
Can't get over you woman no matter how I try
It's driving me crazy, thoughts of you with another man
I am losing my lady, so sad I am
I guess I'm not over you like I thought I was
I guess I was fooling myself cuz I'm still in love
Even when I try to myself the things I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories
Even when I try to myself the things I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories
Treasure yuh body but I cherish yuh mind
Even though it's complicated which is most of the time
A life without your love ain't working out fine
Perception and reality clearly define
I bet you never know the love mi have inna mi heart
We mek simple mistakes tear us apart
Forgetting where we coming from and how it all start
Using harsh words, bitter arrows and sparks
We live inna di same house and we nah talk
We used to be on and now we're totally off
Oh I wish this was never our past
Oh there is no love lost, know that
Even when I try to myself the things I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories
Even when I try to myself the things I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories
Over many moons since we part
But the memories remain with the love inna mi heart
Care not how many friendships I start
This spot weh yuh touch still tender and soft
To be honest I do miss the fires and sparks
But I rather to live on di rooftop or somewhere in a park
But where did we mess up realize the blame
She left me a message explaining her pain
She said, I tried even avoid
Surrounding distractions and outside noise
But we both make mistakes and we both lied
Oh and now here we are
Even when I try to myself the things I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories
Even when I try to myself the things, I say wasn't meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways but the memories

Good Time Girl lyrics - Buju Banton
I cannot please you
No woman no
I tell you what
I guess you was a good time girl
(Good time girl)
Good times are over so you left my world
(Left my world)
Now I'm standing all alone
No one to call my own
Whoa
And I would give
(I would give)
The very heart I have to make you live
(Make you live)
But when I needed just a shoulder
You showed me who you were
Aye
I never thought that you would be the one
To turn your back when I needed a hand
Caught up in situation, blinded by the confrontation
Your actions I could never understand
I guess you was a good time girl
(Good time girl)
Good times are over so you left my world
(Left my world)
Now I'm standing all alone
No one to call my own
Whoa
Old friends say
(Old friends say)
Man if she really love you she would stay
(She would stay)
But then again, that just the game girls play
When they're no longer in love
Aye
Girl I never thought that you would be the one
To turn your back when I needed a hand
I could not find the reason
Where did I went wrong?
Girl, your actions I could never understand
I guess you was a good time girl
(Good time girl)
Good times are over so you left my world
(Left my world)
Now I'm standing all alone
No one to call my own
Aye
I guess you was a good time, good time, good time girl
Good time, good time girl
I guess you was a good time, good time
Good time, good time, good time
I guess she was, I guess she was a good time girl
I guess she was, I guess she was a good time girl
I guess she was, I guess she was a good time girl
I guess she was a good time girl
I never thought that you would be the one
To turn your back when I needed a hand
Caught up in situation, blinded by the confrontation
Your actions I could never understand
I guess you was a good time girl
(Good time girl)
Good times are over so you left my world
(Left my world)
Now I'm standing all alone
No one to call my own
Now I'm standing all alone
No one to call my own
Now I'm standing all alone
(Ooh)
No one to call my own
(Ooh)
No one to call my own
(Ooh)
No one to call my own
(Ooh)
No one to call my own
(Ooh)

Moonlight Love lyrics - Buju Banton
Craziest things sometimes happen in life
Yet as strange as it seems it gives you reasons to survive
Have I told you what you mean to my life
Like love on a stormy night or finding the one that's right
Truly I must reveal will not hide a way I feel
When things get deeper than it seems you don't always say what you mean
Pinch myself wondering if I'm in a dream
You was here and I was near, there was nothing in between
Then something spark it
Whatever was sold I bought it
I'm not interested in temporary love
Oh I'm suspicious of motive but you have earned my trust yeah
Craziest things sometimes happen in life
As strange as it seems it gives you reasons to survive
Have I told you what you mean to my life
Like love on a stormy night or finding the one that's...
Moonlight love shine for me tonight
My sunshine girl run come hold me tight
I'll have you do what you do, and I'll do just what I like a-a-all night
I'll have you groove the way you groove and I'll groove the way I like a-a-all night
Moonlight love shine for me tonight
My sunshine girl run come hold me tight
I'll have you do what you do and I'll do just what I like a-a-all night
I'll have you groove the way you groove and I'll groove the way I like a-a-all night
Cheated lyrics - Buju Banton
A time of decision girl child
It's do or die
Why you do me so bad
Why
(You cheated, you lied)
Girl you throw it all away
(You cheated)
Cho
Ann Marie, it's over you really let me down
I thought the love we shared was sincere and profound
The way ya told me that you love me make my love come down
But when the trouble tek me you were nowhere around
Guess it was all about the money, fancy cars as such
You said I was a bredda with the midas touch
Showed you a life worthwhile filled with designer style
When people seh u spoil I would answer not enough
Get caught up in a world filled with trivial stuff
And I never took the time to see it was a gold rush
Showed the real you when I got locked up not even a postcard
(You cheated, you lied)
Lawd
Gal yuh do me bad
(You cheated)
Cheated
(You cheated, you lied)
Why
(You cheated)
Hear me out
For all the things of the world she can't satisfy
How much you cheated how much you lie
Said it was a cousin when it was just another guy
Yuh swear all the tears weh yuh cry
(You cheated, you lied)
(You cheated)
(You cheated, you lied)
Why you did me so bad
(You cheated, you lied)
Ann Marie, it's over you really let me down
I thought the love we shared was sincere and profound
The way ya told me that you love me make my love come down
But when the trouble tek me you were nowhere around
Guess it was all about the money, fancy cars as such
You said I was a bredda with the midas touch
Showed you a life worthwhile filled with designer style
When people seh u spoil I would answer not enough
Get caught up in a world filled with trivial stuff
And I never took the time see it was a gold rush
Showed real you when I got locked up not even a postcard
(You cheated, you lied)
(You cheated)
(You cheated, you lied)
(You cheated, you lied)
Steppa lyrics - Buju Banton
You a hear me selecta
A more music and less talk I would a talk to the youth them world wide
But let me start from east
And forward out to the west side
Up top jungle all bout Zimbabwe Angola
Hear me out laawd...
Say you a badman fine
And you don't step and left your gun no time
Say them heartless and mean when them a step with them team
Now a white suit and tape from forsensic
Weh mi say steppa steppa a nuh petty thief steppa a nuh taker
Man nah step fi the worst man ago step for the betta
Step inna Great Britain step inna merry macka
Two degrees cold man a step when it hotta
No make no mistake confuse steppa with shotta
Man a step and survive shotta brain get splatta
If you think a lie ask big foot and fatta weh me say? I ask them
Say you a badman fine
And you don't step and left your gun no time
Say them heartless and mean when them a step with them team
Now a white suit and tape from forsensic
Wire tap surveillance agents and snitch
Step no time to linger man haffi move through quick
No shells left behind you better move well legit
Solid composure youth your head can't sick
Woman and pickney still off limit
A steppa never tell his woman him secret
Whether you step in a private or inna public
Steppa code remember the steppa ethics
Steppa steppa a no pettie thief steppa a no taker
Man nah step fi the worst man ago step for the betta
Step inna Great Britain step inna merry macka
Two degrees cold man a step when it hotta
No make no mistake confuse steppa with shoota
Steppa step and survive shotta brain get splatta
If you think a lie ask Kojack and fatta
This one here jook you like a macka
Say you a badman fine
And you don't step and left your gun no time
Say them heartless and mean when them a step with them team
Now a white suit and tape from forensic
Steppa steppa a no pettie thief steppa a no taker
Man nah step fi the worst man ago step for the betta
Step inna Great Britain step inna merry macka
Two degrees cold man a step when it hotta
No make no mistake confuse steppa with shoota
Steppa step and survive shotta brain get splatta
If you think a lie ask Kojack and fatta
This one here jook you like a macka
The World Is Changing lyrics - Buju Banton
A cerebral reflection
A global situation
Consequence and actions
How di quest can be both migrants entering across your border
While sweeping off di earth despite to get their lives in order?
Nuff peoples in di world would profit from dat marijuana
Someone will have to pay
They wanna mi gwaan fear, hop off their agenda
Food is di biggest weapon jus tru medical gangsters
I say, the world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
They can see clear
The world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
They can see clear
We've paid di ultimate price, look at what we did
The Palestinian question has not been answered yet
Mecca yuh Middle East is now a total mess
Destabilizing countries, tell me who's next?
From mass incarceration to random death
His stare, they are so upset
Our voices shall be heard at all cost
We have suffered and we have lost
What we have hate shall remain
This nation won't be di same, no no
No, no-no-no
The world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
Alright, alright
The world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
They can see clear
How di quest can be both migrants entering across your border
While sweeping off di earth despite to get their lives in order?
Nuff peoples in di world would profit from dat marijuana
Someone will have to pay
They wanna mi gwaan fear, hop off their agenda
Food is di biggest weapon jus tru medical gangsters
I say, the world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
Alright, alright
The world is changing
Not today, nor yesterday
Everyone's eyes are open
They can see clear
400 Years lyrics - Buju Banton
Let the massive gather on the beach
Every one ah we like to reach
Listen while I say
Too long in Babylon
We've been too long in Babylon
We've been too long in Babylon (say what?)
We've been too long in Babylon (how long?)
Over four hundred years, say what? (Four hundred years)
Over four hundred years, I cry (four hundred years)
Over four hundred years in Babylon (how long?)
Over four hundred years, say what? (Four hundred years)
Over four hundred years, I cry (four hundred years)
Over four hundred years in Babylon
And I man never cease a fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I man never cease a fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I man never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I shall never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
Too long in Babylon (say what?)
We've been too long in Babylon (woii)
We've been too long in Babylon (children)
We've been too long in Babylon
How they weep us, they eat us
They put us all to shame
Down there in Babylon
Lord, they ate away the change
But we're still using their brain
Down there in Babylon
How we work without a gain
Seems we labored in vain
Down there in Babylon
Lord, the more they say tings change
Still remain the same
Down there in Babylon
Now, now, now
We've been too long in Babylon (children)
We've been too long in Babylon (say what?)
We've been too long in Babylon (children)
We've been too long in Babylon (how long has it been?)
Over four hundred years, woii (four hundred years)
Over four hundred years, I cry (four hundred years)
Over four hundred years in Babylon (say what?)
Over four hundred years, woii (four hundred years)
Over four hundred years, say what? (Four hundred years)
Over four hundred years in Babylon
And I man never cease a fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I man never cease a fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I will never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I shall never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I man never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
I man never cease my fire 'til
Babylon walls burn down
Rising Up lyrics - Buju Banton
Whoa man whoa, revolution is everywhere
They're rising up, everywhere around the world
(Rising up)
Low wage and a high priced market, uh yeah
(Ooh)
How will we feed our little boys and girls?
Have you ever seen water carry inna basket?
I say
(Ooh)
They're rising up, everywhere around the world
(Rising up)
Low wage and a high price market, uh yeah
(Ooh)
How will we feed our little boys and girls?
(Rising up)
Have you ever seen water carried inna basket?
The cause of confrontation shall be economic crisis
Is not the fear of the Islam and is not the threat is ISIS
Hunger makes the need for satisfaction become so hard to resist
And they've got no consideration, I see only hardship answer
They're rising up, everywhere around the world
(Rising up)
Low wage and a high price market, look deh
(Ooh)
Well how will we feed our little boys and girls?
(Rising up)
Have you ever seen water carried in a basket?
Well the cost of labour pales in comparison
In comparison to price
And if they should raise the minimum wages
We would also see taxes rise
All across the world, in one accord, in one voice
The people, the people are so dissatisfied
You see them in the Middle East, you see them in the south
In the north and the Americas, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
They're rising up, everywhere around the world
(Rising up)
Low wage and a high priced market, uh yeah
(Ooh)
Well how will we feed our little boys and girls?
Have you ever seen water being carried in a basket?
Hey
The boats have been on their face for too long
With every inch of ground, freedom slips like sand
No chance, no way out, no escape plan
No longer one race, one group, it's now everyone
Now everyone fighting for their survival, hey
They're rising up, everywhere around the world
(Rising up, up)
Helping Hand lyrics - Buju Banton
Easy my brother, let's talk about it
Don't you know it takes one hand to wash the other
If you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
The spirit of Jah, may not always strive with man
If you should see your brother falling, help him if you can
And it doesn't matter how small, it's never too little to share, no
And what does it take from your pride, to show someone that you care? Oh
A friend is a person or someone, who is always near
Who can feel your joy and know your pain
And know all the troubles you bear
Don't you know it takes one hand to wash the other
If you should see your brother falling, help him if you can
The spirit of Jah, may not always strive with man
If you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
There were days when the food and the shelter was just not there, no
(No)
And my family and friends, they just would not hear my belly pain
If I should contemplate the alternative, is only shame, so I remain
I have no one to talk to and to whom shall I complain?
How dare another man grudge you, for your earthly gain?
I rather teach someone to fish, than give them one, nah
Yes a little bit a charity sure's carry a long, aye
(Just a little bit a charity)
But don't you know it takes one hand to wash the other
If you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
The spirit of Jah, may not always strive with man
If you should see your sister falling, help her if you can
If you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
If you should see your sister falling, help her if you can
It doesn't matter how much, it's never too little to share, no
And what does it take from your pride, to show someone that you care? Lord
A friend is a person or someone, who is always near
Who can share your joy and share your pain
And all the troubles you bear
Don't you know it takes one hand to wash the other
If you should see your brother falling, help him if you can
The spirit of Jah, may not always strive with man
If you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
And if you should see your sister falling, help her if you can
And if you should see your brother falling, lend a helping hand
And if you should see your sister falling (Help her if you can)
Just help her if you can
