We Be Alright Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. Luciano)
[Intro:]
Been through the fire and didn't get burn
Buju Banton, Luciano come fi teach
Listen and you will learn

And still at the end of the day
For them it's just a lue la lay
[Verse 1:]
We have done all the good that we know should
Spread a little love in the neighborhood
Buju done that, I and I done that
Spread a little love in the whole wide world
And telling my people better take control
We have done that, I and I done that
Well
So tell I
Why do they act so strange who
Through mi natty them would a love mi rearrange who
Come ya to speak the truth the natty never hold it back
I never hide the truth Jah know mi never hide the fact
No couldn't love mi talk, no couldn't love mi chat
A who a try stop Buju fi reach pon top
Buju Banton, Luciano two youth them can't stop
Touch it, touch it, touch it star
A midst temptation I and I will be strong

With love and righteousness we manifest upon creation
Together we standing tall
We'll be alright
With Jah by my side
[Verse 2:]
Most people think others can not make it without dem
No man is an island but I still can not trust dem
Oh we have learn more than what they've taught us
So in this day and age we'll let knowledge take it's place
Over the mountains and over rocky terrains
We try to prove to mankind that Jah Jah lives and reigns
He in the heart of man so we must manifest
Together we standing tall
[Chorus:]
We'll be alright
With Jah by my side
Put your shoulder to the wheel
Go days without meal
Walk up and down run down mi boot heel
Nuff think I am joking nuff thinking it's fun
Catch I when I fall
[Verse 3:]

Spread a little love we know we haffe should

Poor Old Man Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. Stephen Marley)
Say, there were lonely a man even than before...
Shooba, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
There was once an old man, who lived all alone
All through out his life, no happiness have he had known
Now with tears in his eyes, he watches as folks passes by
Walking hand in hand with love
Walking hand in hand with love
Now said, I read a letter, poor old woman say
Trying to express how much she needed help
Her loneliness, no sweet caress
No tenderness, she needed some help
Babe, young, the elderly they all want love
Good loviduby mi say kiss and hug
That fill up the cup, mi say dat full di the mug
Overflow to the brim, mi say, like water jug
Woman dem a bubble up, need a little cuddle up
Nah tek nuh fubble up, hardcore a double up
Anywhere we go dancehall a fi nice up
When this one play feel it, yeah
It's the order of the day, you can't deny it, no way
When dis one play, you feel it, yeah
When will they meet? Poor old woman say
When will they greet? Poor old woman say
Her loneliness is the message that she sends
And all she need is one good faithfull friend
That will make her smile again
Throughout her life there is nothing but misery
Upstairs and downstairs, roller coaster tragedy
All kind a things, mi say none she never fancy
When yu chek it out, it was all topsy turvey
Gwan Buju Banton yu pattern is ever irie
Anywhere you go dem call yu Mr. Mark Myrie
And when they're having problems

Who they're having problems

She cried, help me please, poor old woman say
Some company, poor old woman say
In sympathy, she asked me for some help
To find some one to share her loneliness
She said, she can't go on like this

All through out his life, no happiness have he had known
Now with tears in his eyes, he watches as folks passes by

Hills And Valleys Lyrics – Buju Banton
Only Rasta can liberate the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe for a minute that they are with you
Jah free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe for a minute, they don't like you
[Verse 1:]
Why try to make I unhappy
Really I don't know
If it was up to them my friend
We would never see the sun nor the snow
Through that mystical communication within
We keep on coming together
I love to see brothers and sisters
Looking out for one another
That's the way it should be
Not contrary, stop tearing down each other
Only Rasta free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe one minute that they are with you
Jah free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe for a minute that they are with you
[Verse 2:]
Hard drugs won't do
You're just behaving like they want you to (yeah)
Arrogance is much different from ignorance
And I know you feel the same way too
Many live this life without having a clue
No reason why they are so sad and blue
Places to go so much things to do
Not a moment to reflect on the cycle of life (yeah)
A who free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe for a minute that they are with you
Jah free the people
Over hills and valleys too
Don't let them fool you
Don't believe one minute, they don't like you
It hard, it hard, it hard (yeah)
Mek them know we waan go home a we yard
It hard, it hard, it hard (let them know)
Let them know we waan go home a we yard
It hard, it hard, it hard (let them know)
Let them know we waan go home a we yard
It hard, it hard, it hard (oh god)

Cry No More Lyrics – Buju Banton
Don't cry, don't cry
Oh no, oh no
I never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
You got to be strong
Never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
You gotta be strong, oh my love
I know I've hurt you more than once
Treating your love like I don't response
Time in deed, caught up on me
Trapped in your tears
Please set me free I plea
Maybe I took this life for granted
Making you feel like you're not wanted
Ego got the best of me
Chasing every beautiful woman I see
In the end what's my reward
I brought unhappiness in a mi yard, oh Lord
I never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
No no no no no no no
I never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
Dry your weeping eyes, oh my love
And this may sound just like a drama
Inside me there's constant fire
Burning my soul, saying oh what a liar
You've hurt me, so much time hurt her no longer
But I am really a true believer in love
Trying my best to make it work
Show me a man who doesn't cheat
Nor flirt in this world
Boys will be attracted to girls
I never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
Got to be strong
I never want to see you crying over me
You know that's not the way that it's supposed to be
Oh no, no no no no
No no no no no no no
I know that I've hurt you more than once
Treating your love like I don't response

Small Axe Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. King Stitch)
Small axe fall big tree
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
Small axe fall big tree
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
Been on your love line for so long
Won't you be mine age is no crime
Been loving you every minute every hour
All I ever need
Small axe fall big tree
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
And I know you won't
Treat I like others would
Warm embrace truly I feel good
So much to learn this heart inside I burn
And I'm still be right here waiting my turn
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
Small axe fall big tree
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
Been on your love line for so long
Won't you be mine age is no crime
Been loving you every minute every hour
All I ever need
Small axe fall big tree
Though I'm just a baby
Safe in your arms
That's where I wanna be
Small axe fall big tree
And I know you won't
Treat I like others would
Warm embrace truly I feel good
So much to learn this heart inside I burn
And I'm still be right here waiting my turn
Single Parent Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Chorus]
consider, how she make it to the end of the day
working so hard just to get paid
as a single parent life aint easy
playing the role of mom and dad
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 1]
woman I thank you, thank oh mama mama
I never know no father yet you provide my dinner
and I love you oh mama
when you cry I cry too
why do you look so dull and forsaken
I know he is gone and your heart is broken
but we are still together
mama never leave us alone at home no
[Verse 2]
wont turn my back, and you can count on that
if I should go I shall be coming right back
that motherly love gently tucking me in the sack
bedtime kisses and hugs I feel as if Im taking back
how sweet you are let me number the ways
I asked the father guide you for the rest of your days
[Verse 3]

Close One Yesterday Lyrics – Buju Banton
One more day in the struggle
Have to get up and juggle
You done know, want a little sugar inna de pan
Me nah see fi trouble, no man
Oh oh oh
Said I had close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me, be strong
Hold a firm meditation
One day things must get better, don't you go down
Keep your head above the water
Say, one day things must get better, be strong
Said I had close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me, be strong
Hold a firm meditation
One day things must get better, don't you go down
Keep your head above the water
Say, one day things must get better, be strong
The rich is wise in his conceit
But the fool with over standing search him out
Poor man mourn, the rich riches increase
Be not grieved, riches are not forever
Envy not the oppressor choses none of his ways
Be not wise in his own eyes, only jah you must praise
Strive not with a man without cause
If he have done no harm, let by gone be by gone
Said I had close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me, be strong
Hold a firm meditation
One day things must get better, don't you go down
Keep your head above the water
Say, one day things must get better, be strong
This nine to five is a joke
Compare to the pressure the minister say
The economy is getting better
Misleading the people
The mass still suffer on jah
Scarce benefit and spoils
Jah know that we feel it day
Have to get up and juggle
You done know, want a little sugar inna de pan
Me nah see fi trouble, no man
Oh oh oh
Said I had close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me, be strong
Hold a firm meditation
One day things must get better, don't you go down
Keep your head above the water
Say, one day things must get better, be strong
Said I had close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me, be strong
Hold a firm meditation
One day things must get better, don't you go down
Keep your head above the water
Say, one day things must get better, be strong
The rich is wise in his conceit
But the fool with over standing search him out
Poor man mourn, the rich riches increase
Be not grieved, riches are not forever
Envy not the oppressor choses none of his ways
Be not wise in his own eyes, only jah you must praise
Strive not with a man without cause
If he have done no harm, let by gone be by gone

Without your sweet caress im so damn miserable
Touch your finesse, feel the fur of your coat

To the brain
Your man shouldnt have no complain

Hey slow motion is the way for us to enjoy the day
Always taking time to listen what she got to say

Darling don't quarrel with me, It hurts too easily
Dont be messed up by silly tendency
No no way
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 3:]
She mek a caan forget about the huging and squeezing

Circumstances Lyrics – Buju Banton
Circumstances made me what I am
Was I born a violent man
Circumstances made me what I am
Everyone should understand
Circumstances made me what I am
Was I born a violent man
Circumstances made me what I am
Everyone should know
[Verse 1]
May sound strange, might sound foolish
But things ain't getting better
Everyday another fall victim to the beretter
Why is there so much violence
Killing we one another
Let us learn to live and let that light shine brighter
Bad influence through influence the youth dem get slaughter
As bad as badman use to be
Dem respect dI father
is like no eyes no realize seh
Times get harder
MI talk all night with all mI might
But still is laughter
Circumstances made me what I am
Was I born a violent man
Circimstances made me what I am
And everyone should know
[Verse 2]
Him say, when I try to cope
Tell mI self there is hope
It seems like the biggest joke
Eh eh,
And as I put down the gun
Still dollars must run
All now employment can't come
Have mI a jam and a cool
Want go back in a school
The system lick mI
There's no hope for those
Who have not from the slum
Take dI little much we have
Still hunting we down
I beg unu show some love
Unu wI get back, he replied
Circumstances made me what I am
Was I born a violent man
Circimstances made me what I am
And everyone should know
[Verse 3]
Well a no little cry
Mama cry, papa cry too
She warn the bwoy wth all heart
And that couldn't do
Now dem find him dead with a smith and wesson
Six weeks and change
Now mi hear him missing
Why so much violence, too much violence
It hurts my soul and I won't keep silent
Circumstances made me what I am
That was his reply I cry
Circumstances made me what I am
Everyone should know
[Repeat verse 1]
Was I born a violent man
Circumstances made me what I am
Everyone should understand
Circumstances made me what I am
Was I born a violent man
Circumstances made me what I am

Shiloh Lyrics – Buju Banton
Strange, this feeling I'm feeling
But Jah love we will always believe in
I know you may think my faith is in vain
Til Shiloh we'll chant Rastafari's name
But Jah love we will always believe in
I know you may think my faith is in vain
Til Shiloh we'll chant Rastafari's name
Til I'm Laid To Rest Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Chorus]
'Til I'm laid to rest
Always be depressed
There's no life in the West
i know the East is the best
All the propaganda they spread
Tongues will have to confess
I'm in bondage living is a mess
I've got to rise up alleviate the stress
No longer will I expose my weakness
He who seeks knowledge begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7 but I'm still penniless
All the food upon my table Massa God bless
Holler for the needy and shelterless
Ethiopia awaits all prince and princess
[Chorus]
What coube so bad about the East
Everybody wants a piece
Africa for Africans
Marcus Mosiah speak
Unification outnumbers defeat
What a day when we walk down Redemption Street
Banner on heads bible inna we hands
One and all lets trod the promised land
Buju go down a Congo
Stopped in Shashamane Land
The city of Harare where Selassie com from
In Addis Ababa then Batswana
Left Kenya end up in Ghana
Oh what a beauty my eyesight behold
Only Ethiopia protect me from the cold
[Chorus]
Organize and centralize come as one
Our seeds shall be so many more than sand
Some new and replenish pure and clean heart
For too long we've been under this band
Some a save a bag a riches
Yet they die empty hand
Go on saying I'm stupid and laugh all you can
Easier for a caller to go through a needle eye
Than a rich man to enter a Zion
Take it from I man
So
'Til I'm laid to rest
Always be depressed
There's no life in the West
i know the East is the best
All the propaganda they spread
Tongues will have to confess
I'm in bondage living is a mess
I've got to rise up alleviate the stress
No longer will I expose my weakness
He who seeks knowledge begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7 but I'm still penniless
All the food upon my table Massa God bless

Murderer Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Chorus x2]
Murderer! Blood is on your shoulders
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your insides must be hollow
How does it feel to take the life of another
Yes, you can hide from man but not your conscience
You eat the bread of sorrow
Drink the wine of violence
Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent
Why did you disobey the first commandment
Walk through the valley I fear no pestilence
God is my witness and He is my evidence
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help
You will never escape this judgement
[Chours]
I tell you, all men are created equal
But behind the trigger it's a different sequel
Some are murdering people just to collect medals
Stop committing dirty acts for the high officials
You could wash your hands until you can't wash them any more
It is like an epidemic and you won't find a cure
Upper class you could be rich, middle class whether you are poor
Only the righteous won't feel insecure
Have you ever thought about your skill getting bored
[Chorus]
Drinking sulphur bitters won't be bitter like your end
Only God can help you, no family or friend
Don't let the curse be upon your children's children
Abednigo, Shadreck, Meshek, Daniel in the dne
Jonah in the whale's belly, but was never condemned
Job with the leprosy, and he still reached heaven
He will do for you everything He has done for them
Murderer! Blood is on your shoulders
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your insides must be hollow
How does it feel to take the life of another
Yes, you can hide from man but not your conscience
You eat the bread of sorrow
Drink the wine of violence
Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent
Why did you disobey the first commandment
Walk through the valley I fear no pestilence
God is my witness and He is my evidence
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help
You will never escape this judgement
[Chours]
I tell you, all men are created equal

He will do for you everything He has done for them

Untold Stories Lyrics – Buju Banton
While I'm Living
Thanks I'll Be Giving
To the Most High You know,
[Chorus: ]
I am living while I am living to the father I will pray
Only he knows how we get through everyday
With all the hike in the price
Arm and leg we have to pay
While our leaders play
[Verse 1:]
All I see people a rip and a rob and a grab
Tief never love fe see tief wid long bag
No love for the people who a suffer real bad
Another toll to the poll may God help we soul
What is to stop the youths from get out of control
Full up of education yet no own no payroll
The clothes on my back have countless eyehole.
I could go on and on the full has never been told
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
Who can afford to run will run
But what about those who can't...they will have to stay
Opportunity a scarce, scarce commodity
In these times I say... When mama spend her last and send you go class
Never you ever play

Spending a dime while earning a nickel
With no regards to who it may tickle

Not An Easy Road Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Chorus x2]
It's not an easy road
Many see the glamour and the glitter
And think it's a bed of rose
Who feels it knows
Lord help me sustain these blows
From the minute of birth you enter this earth
Obstacles in your way to overcome first
Throughout every day they seem to get worse
Oh my god cast away this curse
Everybody is trying to make ends meet
Through every way they endeavor
Lord God you see it
No matter what the world may say on the street
Must have to survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm wary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste
You know now
[Chorus]
By you rise to see the sun
Who you love a pull you down
Trying to discredit the works you have done
Some can't satisfy with the past of ally
From the Scribes and Pharisees
You've got to stay wide
Hold up your head glancing at both side
Waiting anticipating praying for you to slide
Righteouness prevails with Jah by my side
Delver Jonah from the whale
Never leave him to die
Help us all Abbaba Joni
Hold up my head and cry
[Chours]
I've been travelling all morning
With such a heavy load
Now it's noon and I cannot afford
To put down this burden alongside the road
I've got to hold it, got to humble myself
Like a child
Upon my face I've the got to put on a smile
Make up my mind just to walk more miles
Because I know that
[Chorus]
It's not an easy road
Many see the glamour and the glitter
And think it's a bed of rose
Who feels it knows
Lord help me sustain these blows
From the minute of birth you enter this earth
Obstacles in your way to overcome first
Throughout every day they seem to get worse
Oh my god cast away this curse
Everybody is trying to make ends meet
Through every way they endeavor
Lord God you see it
No matter what the world may say on the street
Must have to survive, won't accept defeat
Now I'm wary, tired and dreary
Got no time to waste
You know now
[Chorus]
By you rise to see the sun
Who you love a pull you down
Trying to discredit the works you have done
Some can't satisfy with the past of ally
From the Scribes and Pharisees
You've got to stay wide
Hold up your head glancing at both side
Waiting anticipating praying for you to slide
Righteouness prevails with Jah by my side
Delver Jonah from the whale
Never leave him to die
Help us all Abbaba Joni
Hold up my head and cry
[Chours]

Complaint Lyrics – Buju Banton (feat. Garnett Silk)
[Chorus]
If you do wrong they complain
Even if you call the father's name its the same
What they`want us to do
Don't they know it is nothing new
Why won't they do what they want
And let me do my thing they should be thankful
There's lights of hope still shining
[Buju Banton:]
Let Jah rise and the heathen scatter
Have to give thanks and praises no matter
Even if the flames is getting hotter & hotter
Every one should know I don't believe in rumor
Children arise from your sleep & slumber
Don't come to bow, come to conquer
Strictly love why you envy your brother
Don't let them re-arrange you in a different manner
[Garnett Silk:]
Why should I change to gain acceptance
Can't tell a next man how to wear his pants
Lift up the name of Jah in abundance
Every single thing we do, we are liable
To get a sentence
But we won't be like a flea just like how the more we see
The less you hear we speak
My brother don't you be like a stubborn sheep
Blessed are he when man shall revile you
And persecute you, say all manner of evil
Against you falsely, for Jah sake
Rejoice I say and be exceedingly glad
For great is your reward
For so persecute they the prophets before you and me
[Buju Banton:]
Let Jah rise and the heathen scatter
Have to give thanks and praises no matter
Even if the flames is getting hotter & hotter
Every one should know I don't believe in rumor
Children arise from your sleep & slumber
Don't come to bow, come to conquer
Strictly love why you envy your brother
Don't let them re-arrange you in a different manner
If you do wrong they complain
Even if you call the father's name its the same
What they`want us to do
Don't they know it is nothing new
Why won't they do what they want
And let me do my thing they should be thankful
There's lights of hope still shining
[Buju Banton:]
Let Jah rise and the heathen scatter
Have to give thanks and praises no matter
Even if the flames is getting hotter & hotter
Every one should know I don't believe in rumor

Strictly love why you envy your brother

How Could You Lyrics – Buju Banton
It is real, as real as it seem
Don't you live on illusion
And don't you ever try to live a dream
I sing...
[Chorus]
Buju say how could you rise up every living day
Telling yourself everything is OK
When you look at life you'll see it slipping away
Lord knows who feels it every moment every day
Those why cry for the poor get neglected, rejected, put to death
How much more will we take?
Did you father work off his shirt, blood, sweat and tears
Don't tell me that you forgot
Being oppressed by the oppressors, all different types of stress
For the sorrows of the poor, they don't even care less
Refuse to deal with world atrocities, civil unrest
Instead they're building penitentiaries as big as a bird's nest
Saying we are to be blamed for whatever what mess
[Chorus]
Some say, how are you going? They want to know if we are mine
Not until we reposess what's rightfully mine
Sitting down for so long we do belive it is time
Everyone is entitled to food at mealtime
'Til then, we'll struggle for rights, no more racial fights
Degradation to the highest heights
All obstacles as a people we have to cross
With health and strength we all can get across
Happenings of yesterday are just a thing of the past
[Chorus]
Don't you cry little one, wipe your tears, sing my song
Though we're in a strange land with evil ones
Help the weak if you're strong, iron sharpens iron
When you're down take a look at where the help is coming from
What about the masterminds with the foolproof plans
What about the geniuses who achieve grade one
[Chorus]
[Repeat verse 1 and verse 2]
Don't you live on illusion
And don't you ever try to live a dream
I sing...
[Chorus]
Buju say how could you rise up every living day
Telling yourself everything is OK
When you look at life you'll see it slipping away
Lord knows who feels it every moment every day
Those why cry for the poor get neglected, rejected, put to death
How much more will we take?

Wanna be Loved Lyrics – Buju Banton
[Chorus]
Wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you me heart
Don't want to take it back
This is my chat-cho
Been searching for a long long time
For that oh-so-true love
To comfort this heart of mine
No pretense stop wasting my time
A virtuous woman is really hard to find
I'm telling you lady
I'm only human, not looking for impossibility
Just a genuine woman with sincerity
Someone who is always near to hold me
Show me you care, up front and boldly
Don't shun my feelings, all the positive meanings
Love me morning, noon all seasons
[Chorus]
Well every hoe have it's stick in a bush
What happen to me...she must be somewhere out there
Now where could she be?
Caught up passionately in a love rhapsody
I'm like waiting on some honey
But there ain't no queen bee
Everybody's laughing
Some say I'm silly
No infatuation, no love fantasy
Woman you lead my life on a string
I can't tale the on and off thing
I'm oh so lonely inside so I sing
[Chorus]
I would spend my nights at home
But if it means contention
I'd rather be alone
Tell the service man cut the phones
Lock all communication
If there's no light within my day
I'd rather stay in isolation
For that special someone a lifetime I'll wait
I know that I'll be okay
Cross my heart, every day I live I pray
And I know she'll come my way
Night and day for this woman I pray
[Chorus]
Wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you me heart
Don't want to take it back
This is my chat-cho
Been searching for a long long time
For that oh-so-true love

It's All Over Lyrics – Buju Banton
Girls in supply, Buju Banton expressing his feelings
Look at the action of the girls
Lord have mercy, I am getting excited
[Chorus]
Woman are mashing up to town
From the head to the ground
And the men are rejoicing
It's all over
She's on the starting line
Now they're off
If you stop to look you will see everyone at last
It is the sweetness of your body that makes you excel
The girl up front, she won't last
Flourishing, nourishing, everything else
The ragamuffin could ever want
Men are craving for your body
They think it must be some glue
They tell their girlfriends they have left them
[Chorus]
I can't tell you how much I want you, right now
I'm coming to get you, serious talk now
You could barricade the door or your father could
Be guarding you with a 404 rifle
The rest of my life I will devote
Let's go make a martimonal house
Woman every groove and every angle fit
It must be aerobic class
I can imagine what it would be like with you
[Chorus]
Do it when you're young, you can't wait til youre older
Tell the girl to move, get out of the way
All the things you have expensive
Buju Banton is speaking and the world is crowed
The girl is being used and not seen any results after
Men using women like how they use plaster
Look how the girls wrecking the corner
What Buju Banton say...hea hea
[Chorus]
[Repeat all verses]
Look at the girl moving in the center
Wiggling, jiggling all over
Men are after you body like termite to lumber
The amount of men you want is more than number
Sho Buju us here and it's a Drama
[Chorus]
Look at the action of the girls
Lord have mercy, I am getting excited
[Chorus]
Woman are mashing up to town

Hush Baby Hush Lyrics – Buju Banton
Yeah big surprise
Guess you didn't realize the size
[Chorus: STAY]
Hush baby hush
Didn't know it would hurt so much
Natural stuff, throw away the stone, break up the brush
Man well rough woman always requesting the work
Yes she have to get the pillow
Bedroom destruction woman you rman is a killer
Have to give it up when she see me
Wicked on the trigger man is a good digger
Woman wiggling & jiggling saying you get bigger
Where have you been you jolly bad fellow
Instantly she get asthma
Who told her to unveil the arrow
Ambulance wouldn't come
They have to send the wheel barrow
[Chorus]
Never hesitate to set straight the matter
Big man don't have to masturbate
Because just look at big body Pam and
Sexy body Marcia
The amount of woman in the world its a Drama
Girls chasing like hot lava
Holiday coming every woman want a llama
Face look great, shape it's a blaster
Style is your motto and fashion you
Are the master
So hush baby
[Chorus]
Rain starts to fall, your inner nature call
You need a good soccer player to kick the football
Direct free kick, curve it around the defense
Ball is in the net
Sheet and pillow a[[lad
Close the door be sure it's locked
Bangarang the in the room between you and me
[Chorus]
Guess you didn't realize the size
[Chorus: STAY]
Hush baby hush
Didn't know it would hurt so much
Natural stuff, throw away the stone, break up the brush
Man well rough woman always requesting the work
Yes she have to get the pillow
Bedroom destruction woman you rman is a killer
Have to give it up when she see me
Wicked on the trigger man is a good digger
Woman wiggling & jiggling saying you get bigger
Where have you been you jolly bad fellow
Instantly she get asthma
Who told her to unveil the arrow
Ambulance wouldn't come
They have to send the wheel barrow
[Chorus]
Never hesitate to set straight the matter
Big man don't have to masturbate
Because just look at big body Pam and
Sexy body Marcia
The amount of woman in the world its a Drama
Girls chasing like hot lava
Holiday coming every woman want a llama
Face look great, shape it's a blaster
Style is your motto and fashion you
Are the master
So hush baby
[Chorus]
Rain starts to fall, your inner nature call
You need a good soccer player to kick the football
Direct free kick, curve it around the defense
Ball is in the net
Sheet and pillow a[[lad
Close the door be sure it's locked
Bangarang the in the room between you and me
[Chorus]

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
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

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

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!

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

Make love and not war

Yeah, it is the pain time
Again now... Whoo
[Chorus]
[Verse 5:]
Everything race
But we won't live in fret
But the air we breath becomes thick with dead
Then we know Jah ah guide
We will never fret
When ever you ready ready
No more sparge
Whenever you light or heavy
Ah pure respect, lord lord lord lord
Now war, now war
[Chorus]
[Repeat Verse 2]
Why my people suffer so bad ?
Who is it that should really be sad ?
Is it... Is it the misplaced melancholic ?
Whoa...
[Chorus:]
Well is't politics time again
Are you gonna vote now ?
My people you ah talk
It's politics time again
Are you gonna vote now ?
My god...
[Verse 1:]
Rise up falling suffer
Rise and take your stands again
He who fights and run away
Will live to fight another day
[Chorus]
Make love and not war
[Verse 2:]
It's the time to duty
Haffi see the chance to vote
Fire bun dem constitution
Long time we need ah choose
Fed up with promises
And hopeless hope
Why the box must be empty
For those clothes
No one harm no one
True the color of the clothes, now
But some just plain greedy
No matter how we teach them
For get easy... yaw
[Chorus]
It's the rasta them talkin'
New gear, new gear
[Verse 3:]
Bloodshed...
From rema-a-and
Down in the valley
Can them hear ya-a-ah
Crack down...
(it's) Has become ah gunman compound
Now bless all people who has seen this shit
Lord
Dem cry reliclesly yeah
You keep on moving
Every minute every hour
Gunshot fall like shower
Whoa like new clear power
[Chorus]
[Verse 4:]
And the likkle want, we want
And the likkle preach, we preach
Selcter buzz thier big on the street, lord
Kill people
What dem really seek?
Who is it that I man speaking?
Who is it that is controlin' the system?
Three parties and I'm not dancing
Who is it then?
Who is she then?
Now who is the Mr. In?
Yeah, it is the pain time
Again now... Whoo
[Chorus]
[Verse 5:]
Everything race
But we won't live in fret
But the air we breath becomes thick with dead
Then we know Jah ah guide
We will never fret
When ever you ready ready
No more sparge
Whenever you light or heavy
Ah pure respect, lord lord lord lord
Now war, now war
[Chorus]
[Repeat Verse 2]
