Oh Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
I have lived my life by you
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari
I have...
Been taken from my land
No more free to run
Put in chains, and sold as slave
Then placed in Babylon. Placed in, Babylon
Oh Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
I have lived the best I can
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari
Every...
Tear I've ever cried
Don't let them be in vain
For, every single tear I spilled
Was done so in your name. Was done so, in your name
So Jah, praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
In life I've trusted you
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari
You have...
Blessed me with a gentle strength
I, both lamb and lion
Take me as created Jah
Return I back to Zion. Return I, back to Zion
Oh Jah praise I
Oh Jah, raise I
In death I follow still
I, your Rastafari
I, your Rastafari

A Vulgar Display
In the labyrinth maze that we call a mind
I'm frightened of things that I'll someday find
Those flickering stills that I've locked away
May form as a film in a vulgar display
These images time has appropriately lost
Might shed some light at a deadly cost
And show the fears of a distant past
Those fragile thoughts, and the shadows cast
I'm frightened of things that I'll someday find
Those flickering stills that I've locked away
May form as a film in a vulgar display
These images time has appropriately lost
Might shed some light at a deadly cost
And show the fears of a distant past
Those fragile thoughts, and the shadows cast

Sugar Rush
If you were any sweeter
I would get so sick on you
I'd lick the honey from your tongue
My sugar cane on cue
And when I started shaking
From the sweetness that I'd craved
I'd keep a little stashed away
For times I felt depraved
You are my sweet, little, sticky thing
The pleasure I adore
You tingle through my veins
And you just, keep me wanting more
You are my sweet, sweet, delicious thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush
If I could pour you on me
I would cover me in you
I'd smother, every naked inch
That's what I'd love to do
I know this might sound crazy
But to have you on my skin
Would compliment the sweetness
That you fill me from within
You are my sweet, sweet, candy dream
The craving I adore
You tingle through my veins
And then you sweeten me some more
You are my sweet, sweet, yummy thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush
I would get so sick on you
I'd lick the honey from your tongue
My sugar cane on cue
And when I started shaking
From the sweetness that I'd craved
I'd keep a little stashed away
For times I felt depraved
You are my sweet, little, sticky thing
The pleasure I adore
You tingle through my veins
And you just, keep me wanting more
You are my sweet, sweet, delicious thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush
If I could pour you on me
I would cover me in you
I'd smother, every naked inch
That's what I'd love to do
I know this might sound crazy
But to have you on my skin
Would compliment the sweetness
That you fill me from within
You are my sweet, sweet, candy dream
The craving I adore
You tingle through my veins
And then you sweeten me some more
You are my sweet, sweet, yummy thing
As soft as candy floss
That's why I tremble in your arms
You are my sugar rush
A Little War
If you find... That you might need me girl
I'll come running to your cheating arms again
Oblivious, to all the hurt you'd cause me
I'm still stinging from those vast amounts of pain
When you hit me... Well, I deserved it
As I know I wasn't wild enough for you
Every punch... You aimed, and threw upon me
Were justified I guess, and overdue
But baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do
They show me that our love, was more than heaven
As heaven is a thing you cannot feel
Yet here we are apart, but always joined in what we had
Like a never ending battle, that we share
The pain in which we suffer, tells the story of our past
And that story tells how much we really care
So baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do
Oh baby, I still love you girl
And I know that in your heart, you feel the same
Let's fight our little war, that war we started, to the end
And we'll battle through no matter what the pain
I'll come running to your cheating arms again
Oblivious, to all the hurt you'd cause me
I'm still stinging from those vast amounts of pain
When you hit me... Well, I deserved it
As I know I wasn't wild enough for you
Every punch... You aimed, and threw upon me
Were justified I guess, and overdue
But baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do
Your gifts of scars and bruises, I still cherish
These wounds that time itself may never healThey show me that our love, was more than heaven
As heaven is a thing you cannot feel
Yet here we are apart, but always joined in what we had
Like a never ending battle, that we share
The pain in which we suffer, tells the story of our past
And that story tells how much we really care
So baby, I still love you
And I know that deep inside, you love me too
If you need a little war, that some call loving, in your life
Then I'm here to do the best that I can do
Oh baby, I still love you girl
And I know that in your heart, you feel the same
Let's fight our little war, that war we started, to the end
And we'll battle through no matter what the pain

This Mighty Ball
It's the Earth that we should worship
Not gods and idols made by man
This Earth that gives us everything
Since time and WE began
She gives us Water
Food and Shelter
Everything in life we need
And asks for nothing in return
No sacramental pledge or greed
Why search the heavens?
Study stars?
Who cares if there is life on Mars!
Be thankful for her gift bestowed
The love she gives and always showed
She gave you life
She takes us all
We're children of this mighty ball
So take a moment...
Make it true...
Give thanks for all she gives to you
Those gods and idols never show
Except of course in every war
Is that the God you'd like to know?
The saviour you've been waiting for!
The Earth rotates both day and night
Puts all her beauty on display
And yet WE TURN to something else
While she's in disarray

Bury Me Standing
Bury me standing up on my feet
As I have spent a lifetime upon my knees
Praying to gods I may never meet
Yet doing my best to abide and please
Bury me standing beneath the ground
So I stand with pride like the ancient trees
Reaching above through the sacred ground
To the heaven that only a dead man sees

Pretty Lyndsey
Will you come to the cliffs pretty Lyndsey?
Will you climb to the cliff top with me?
Will you jump to the rocks down below us?
Where we'll sink to the depths of the sea
Will you take hold my hand pretty Lyndsey?
Will you prove that you love only me?
As we fall to the rocks down below us
Where our souls on the tide shall be free
