- Better
To and now far away from us
to and now far away from one and
if I can't make it better
and you can't make it better
then what are we to do now,
now. spend our lives in limbo
wondering if what I wrote
is ever coming true, true, yo
- Born In Babylon
I came from nothing but a nothing like nothing
nothing - like nobody thought i was something
nothing - like called every name in the book
but for every second guess I never gave a second look
I tell myself "Don't let it get to me!"
'cause if the best they've got its not impressing me
then there's no reason they should get the best of me
- Bring Back Truth
Think for yourself or be thought for, and,
Fight for yourself of be fought for, but
Find for yourself or be lost for ever;
you never know when it's gonna come. It's like...
Careful the game that you've been playing,
Every night and every day, and - or
You might just find yourself saying,
"Damn, I never really thought it would come..."
- Decide You're Gone
I used to think that i would go this all alone
I used to think that i would do it by myself
But i i found another one like me walking alone
I don't think she stands a chance with no one else But anyway...
I'll be here and you'll be there
And we'll be by the phone (and you know)
I'll be sitting watching you waiting for you you decide your You decide you're gone
- Here I Am
She calls me when I'm in town, I pretend I'm not around
But she sees on a screen I am, so here I am, here I am
She don't call me one and only no, she just calls me when she gets lonely
Something I do that gets her there, so feel better, and get well
- I Don't Wanna Wait
I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna wait (wait)
I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna wait
They say way back when knew how
But there's nothing telling you now
Just to do your right and not your wrong
- Losing My Mind
There's no pictures on the wall
there's no rise and there's no fall
and in the morning, I'm ride alone without you
There's no phone and there's no calls
there's no talkin to you at all
and I don't care late at night when its not you
- Open My Eyes
I open my eyes, each morning I rise
to find the truth I know that is there.
I'm lucky to breathe, I'm lucky to feel,
I'm glad to wake up, I'm glad to be here.
With all of this world, and all of it's pain,
all of it's lies, and all of its let downs...
I still feel a sense of freedom -
So glad I'm around.
- Rasta Courage
Try and remember now just what has been done enslavement, displacement of every nation. And now to one nation everyone hold their grudge. Kinda make me wonder well which side I'm on. Don't defend the white and I don't defend the black. I defend truth and rights and all of that. Work on situations where I'm at. Hold my position never fall off track. .
[Course]
Nah give up my faith! Through Babylon rage ini strive til the end of my days. Rasta courage. Go against society. Rasta courage. Babylon rage ini strive til the end of my days. Rasta courage. Go against society. Rasta courage.
I never give up no good vibes. And I never give up no truth. Never trade my sanity for livin in Babylon crew. Vanity will never drive this man insane. This man will walk alongside Jah again. We see all the pressure to conform today and I may sometimes bend but only as not to break cause a life of iniquity for laziness' sake is a deal with the devil Rasta just can't make.
[Course]
- Rest of My Life
If I could spend the rest of my life with my people
I would do it over and over again
Leave it up to them to fill up their steeple
Leave it up to us to fill up on our friends
If I could spend the rest of my life with my people
I would do it over and over again
I live in my mind that I know there's no equal
When I'm falling out, yo they pull me back in
- Revolution Cry
For so long InI feel
as if I'm not a part of this world.
for all of it's representatives
are so secretive.
So far, there's very little love,
and an abundance of hatred.
Now is this the legacy
I leave for my children?
- Thunderstorms
I don't, know one, thing about, you not,
Knowing, a thing about me
Cause' we dropped down into all your thunderstorms
and claim its not your lightning.
And now the fire's gone in my eyes
grows cold for a while
and I don't feel your hate
- True Love
Just like the land that bear the name Africa,
Love is on my mind.
It’s for everyone no matter where you’re from,
Love, it cross all lines.
Like the feeling of all the seasons changing,
Love is a memory
And in these last days, when iniquity blazing,
Truth Love Speaks.
- You and Me
It's you and me, it's always been
And how I feel about you, there's no end, end
But you make me chase you around
And then you need me when you fall down, down
And when this dance is done,
You and me are still the only one
Well since our time begun
And I'm still with you even when your gone
- You Don't Know Me
Well, I had one by my side,
but she only tried to get near me.
And never ever knowing about my inside..
But one that I hold is worth so
much more to me if it's both body and mind.
You think I'm alone when everyone's around,
You think I'm home but I'm really out.
