Note To Self

Tell me what you’re ready for 

Tell me what you’re ready for 

We Ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We Ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

What is in an open road
That should frighten you
And make you lose your composure
The mind can be your greatest foe When you do not know
What’s lurking over your shoulder But inner Chi will light your way
It’s not accidentally in the life of a soldier 

In this battle for a brighter day
It’s of yourself you slay
The thing that try to hold ya 

So just forget about the past mistakes and all that didn’t take 

And all the non believers
We sight the one who don’t have what it takes
And love to war and trace
No they can not deceive us
The sun come out to shine on every face
And in a blazing phase it strips away the pretense
They lose their way trying to keep the pace While we effortless breaking down defenses 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

I don’t know when I let this voice of dissent
Come in and mess with my head
When I‘m so naturally blessed Yes the sacrifices I people made Reparations are still unpaid
But my potential is unrestrained And I’m about to reveal it now 

I just forget about the past mistakes and all that didn’t take 

And all the non believers
We sight the one who don’t have what it takes
And love to war and trace
No they can not deceive us
The sun come out to shine on every face 

And in a blazing phase it strips away the pretense
They lose their way trying to keep the pace While we effortless breaking down defense 

Cause we ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no
We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no
We ready fi go seal it now And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

Tell me what you’re ready for Tell me what you’re ready for

To each his own
Each man stands alone
We each must bring
A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So keep it light as a feather
And fly away 

These days it seems that everyone is on some twisted mission
To make a great impression
To boost their likes and ratings
Faking friendship just to get ahead
As jaded as the walking dead
Becoming the norm as corruption spread
But truth is always waiting
Much of what we’ve been taught to love or fear, are just moments on the journey here
We must choose what we keep Or let go Believe what your told or seek and go know 

To each his own
Each man stands alone 

We each must bring,

A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So keep it light as a feather
And fly away 

Nuff a dem claim dem righteous tru dem seh Ital,
No meat, very little salt or sweet
Tru dem fit and full of intelligence
With great confidence to just speak
But we see seh dem secretly full of fear 

And so hopelessly unaware
Of how a loving heart and peaceful thoughts Keep the conscience clear
So we say caution to the scornful
Your pride is gonna be your downfall
Be humble when you’re corrected, receive it willingly and be grateful
Because love is what a one is expected to use To effectively govern decision
So with all the long term planning and precision you ready if di mission? 

To each his own
Each man stands alone
We each must bring a sacrifice or an offering and what we pay will be weighed when we meet our judgment day so keep it light as a feather 

And fly away 

Fly away From the social drama Fly away
From the theatres of war
Fly away
From the minstrel show karma Fly away
Into full bloom and power 

I am a pillar of strength
Firm at the core
I and I sisters and brothers will endure
What we represents together is concentrated pure
Unselfish, raw, creation, law, Order, Divine, 0 to 9 

My mind travels back and forth Between all of the different things

I have to be Contemplating the wisdom of my steps… Taken, and to come.

Observing the consequences and outcomes already exposed… the weight of expectations, legitimate or not…

And even how these very words may ricochet in this glass room

Words may not say Exactly how I’m feeling The hurt and the hate And the love I’m receiving

I’m gonna be ok I tell myself while I’m breathing It’s gonna be ok

Remember seh JAH not sleeping 

 

Even when the news channel Weh di tv deh pon

Showing leaders brandishing atomic weapon

Threatening world peace, spreading mass depression

And then Divide and lead the youths dem in the wrong direction

Still I can feel the almighty working

When I take a deep breath and do likkle searching

I an I find, Jah love is infinite

Future looking quite fine

 

But even if it isn’t…

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself)

I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else)

I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (okay okay) 

 

Stress is a common threat To my happiness Mm

But if I let it get too deep (too deep) in a depressive state 

I tell myself be strong and gwan hold the faith

I tell myself there’s reason to celebrate

Things will be great But even if it isn’t 

 

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself)

I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else)

I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (okay) 

 

Persecution is a lesson to bare

And any road that I chose Could be bringing it nearer to me

But there’s a lesson if I let go the fear

That is the code for the goals And it’s making it clearer to me

Sometimes I feel so much that I get over come

But Jah love is real and surely that is where the lesson coming from

 

And even if it isn’t 

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself) I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else) I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (Everything is gonna be okay) 

But even if it isn’t 

 

I’m… okay 

Traveling through inner space, Slowing at a constant pace

Focused and relaxing at the same time

Deconstruct reality, then set it how you’d like it to be,

Break the chains and take free; it’s the same crime since slave times

Do what you’ve been taught to do never what you ought to do

Keep it all inside till the time is right

Hold your tongue or hold your breath

Let either lead to certain death 

Let it drift away as you pass the light. 

(Why don’t you) Let me help you find yourself inside your other mind

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Let me help you find yourself inside that other mind

Step outside, leave behind the worries of that other kind 

Let me help you find yourself inside

Healing me, Reactivating what’s been still in me Makes concentrating come so easily

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Let me help you find yourself inside that other mind

Step outside, leave behind the worries of that other kind 

Let me help you find yourself inside Let me help you find yourself inside

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Finding a way a way a way over 

I am a social scientist gathering information

Observing different cultures in each of the various nation

Trodding incognito As a Rastafari artist

Instigating revolution with anyone willing to start it

Marketing the mission

As a spiritual experience

And using the opportunity to do some Major reconnaissance

To find out how my people living On the black continents

So we can determine a plan for resistance

And mount an effective defense 

As a way 

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

Finding a way a way a way over 

We calling the healer and the engineers

Teachers and creatorsImpressing on them the urgency

Even helping to process their paper

Sake a common ancestral influence

We sure to find a few

Who not just ready to take instruction

But already know what to do

Those who’ve been reading and preparing

Burning passionately from time

Awaiting engagement Of dem spirit and dem mind

And now that time is upon us Sisters brothers ready your station

For the victory is eminent

Once we commence these activations 

Will find it There is a will in I that will not be silenced born of the first race now of the new race

We who have emerged out of their history of violence against us

Now we’re fully cognizant of how Jah bless us 

and we’re finding a way 

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

Finding a way a way a way over 

Akala: The way over’s the way out’s the way in

Seek knowledge and look within

All of the things that we’ve been mistaught

But still we learning I’m so bored to see you distraught It’s really hurting

The world is colder than I ever thought

But Still we burning

A solder can’t mistake war for sport

And that for certain The person, the individual or the collective

All of these things and mean so much more

What’s your perspective

Neglected histories remain hidden

And that’s on purpose

But all we‘ve got to do is some digging

And they resurface We’re often so focused

On how things have become

We forget how many victories

That we have won 

A debt that’s ancestoral I bet a man bet you

That the best you can get You are still lesser than special 

But the way outs the way within

We cannot face everything

But before we can even begin

We must look within 

For a way over

A way out way over

A way out way over

A way out way over

A way out 

 

Oooooo 

Hey you (Hey)

I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see)

Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are)

Remember us (from me) 

I remember you (always, all ways)

I remember you 

Joseph didn’t mean it

But what he caused within his brothers

Was a feeling.

Deep seated insecurity.

Whatever issues inherited where from family

For love and hate are one and the same

It’s the mind of man that changes

So I could be your brother I’ll still become your enemy

If you begin to feel me a threat to what you’re building for yourself

Economics have you thinking there is scarcity

So the power that you tasted

You didn’t want to waste on me but 

Hey you (Hey)

I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see)

Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are)

Remember us (from me)

I remember you (always, all ways)

I remember you 

If you remember Joseph never lost his way

The light that made them envious

Remained and guided him greatness

And when they needed him he was able

To extend salvation from the grips of starvation

Life is funny that way.

For all that I thought had been taken from me 

I needed to shed it wasn’t mine to begin with

And all I see you holding on to

Doesn’t even belong to you

And it’s weighing you down

So now you don’t want me around to see but 

Hey you (Hey) I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see) Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are) Remember us (from me)

I remember you (always, all ways) I remember you 

Tried to make me a victim

But I resisted I know u remember my fitness (I remember you) 

I blame the whole system

Such a bloody shame

Relationship slain because of ambition (I remember you) 

Lives wasted

Chasing money dreams

And now you’re beautiful light it seems is fading 

But I remember (I remember you) I remember (I remember you)

You are not a king 

You are just a pawn

Scattering the seeds from which the masses will be born

The Emphasis to place on the space you put your tail shows just the kind of weakness that would cause a race the fail

Where did you get it in your head that’s the value are you possess was determined by efficiency of taking off my dress Huh?

Who taught you what it means to be a man don’t blame the absence of a father

Blame the absence of a plan blame the system that would have you drugged and sexing off for sport

Blame the rich when you steal

Then when they catch you blame the court

blame the girls that told you yes

blame the girl that told you no

blame the girl that was your mother 

blame it on the way you grow

So many things you have the opportunity to use as your excuse when you lose

But what if all you had to do to win was to learn from the example of the king 

But he don’t love highly always on the low

Heart overfull but he don’t want it to show

He don’t love highly Ever feeling down draining the energy when ever he around

He don’t love highly

So the chance is kind of slim not taking no

Time to give Ises unto him who is the light

And the law the truth and he way

So i can’t let him get to me 

GQ pimp type hustling fly Helping himself to the bulk of the pie

Never complained when the sign did a show now everything is crumbling wouldn’t you know

Fast pace brain freeze Sikkling Heart 

Fearing a future Before the start Of the moves that will lead him Astray

Unless Haile is leading the way 

But he don’t love highly always on the low

Heart overfull but he don’t want it to show

He don’t love highly ever feeling down Draining the energy when ever he’s around

He don’t love highlySo the chance is kind of slim

Not taking no time To give Ises unto him

Who is the light and the law The truth and the way

So i can’t let him get to me 

For he don’t love highlyHe don’t love highlyHe don’t love highly

He don’t love highly

So he’s falling 

I can’t let him get to me

No I can’t let him get to me

I can’t let him get to me

No I can’t let him get to me

(Give thanks for H.I.M Emperor Haile Selassie the First and Empress Menin) 

I take a risk I let him inI am afraid I admit to him

This type of surrender Wasn’t on the agenda

But the love from this bredda Is inspiring 

Him don’t have no moneyHim still kinda young

A lover and a fighter

But a Jah sen him come This type of surrender wasn’t on the agenda

But I find that this bredda 

Is i reflection 

Love has found I Finally For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I Finally Taking it slow But not letting go! 

I’m not one to trust

A man full of lust

I don’t fish for compliment I’m real serious

But love from the lion Brings access to Zion

And the queen him rely on

Fulfills her purpose 

I journey as omega

Is to Keep alpha strong

I compliment his nature

And define his function

So love from the lion Brings access to

Zion Masculine and feminine United as one 

Love has found I Finally

For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example 

of the King

Love has found I Finally

Taking it slow

But not letting go! 

I feel like Empress Menin When she just sight the King For the first time

She was a little older

But he was the holder Of the key to her heart 

All the struggles and lessons and the heart ache

How much can one woman’s heart take

Til Haile step een Like something from a dream

The conquering Lion

Turned a girl Into a queen 

Love has found I Finally

For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I Finally Taking it slow

But not letting go! 

I take a risk

I let him in 

I am not afraid I trust the king

Haile Selassie Seal the trinity

With Empress Menin

And show man how Fi get the power

Through the reuniting 

Duality is evidence

We both are the same

One in the principle

Just two separate name

Reminder of the balance

That we have to maintain

The peace is it possible to gain

Now that 

 

Love has found I

Finally For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I

Finally

Taking it slow

But not letting go!

Especially since it’s been serving I well.

I give thanks for everyone who has given and taken from me on this trod:

My teachers, my students.

I feel you too… listening, doing your own rough work… more strength on your own journey

Perfect love 

Tell me what you see

When u look at me, oo

Tell me do u know

How high how low 

Can u see the road 

The soul of a poet

The mind of a poet

The body of the goddess

And the heart of the king 

She blessed and she know it

Serene when she show it JAH JAH fire blazing

In the voice when she sing

Her life is invested

Her faith has been tested

The fruit of her ambition

Is surrender to the promise

Of eternal life

Because she know the Heights 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus I notice She is in another place 

And she smiling Rested Peaceful and free Makes me wonder if it could be me

Could it be me 

Her heart is contented Her lips have repented

Forgiveness is the method 

That she uses to deal

All her expectations

Have been tempered by patience

Forged like a sword of the greatest steel 

Now her days now are all splendid The worries have ended

Skillful when deciphering the symbols on the journey to eternal life

Because she know the height 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus

I notice

She is in another place 

And she whispering Something That I wish I could hear

Makes me want to be there

Makes me want To be there 

Could it be, could it be me

Could it be, could it be me 

The soul of a poet

The mind of a poet

The body of the goddess

And the heart of the king 

She blessed and she know it

Serene when she show it JAH JAH fire blazing 

In the voice when she sing

Her life is invested

Her faith has been tested

The fruit of her ambition Is surrender to the promise of eternal life

Because she know the Heights, ooo 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus

I notice

She is in another place 

And she smiling Rested Peaceful and free

Makes me wonder if it could be me

Could it be me

It is written that faith is the substance of things unseen.

This only holds true if one can grasp and appreciate the limitless nature of intelligent design at work, within the UNSEEN. 

To cast the seeds of my imagination and know with certainty that fruit is on the way… there is a way. 

It takes knowing to trust the unknown 

So faith is not belief… it’s knowing 

Removing doubt as I make note of every personal victory one at a time.

Reawakening and restoring the Most High within myself as I study her… me… I 

And knowing Iself… is mastery 

 

One who is ready… will do the work.

Humble me more and more

The heights jus a show an the bliss jus a show

and a humble mi more and more

The more that I learn show the little that I know

And it humble mi more and more

The truth set me free and encourages me

As it humble mi more and more

Humble mi more and more

 

There is so much to fear they say so many unknowns

there are those who would scorch the face of the earth

in a selfish game of thrones

some have learned of the mysteries

and are forcing the world to comply, but give thanks

the source of the sacred is encoded in I and I

 

When I tune into the frequency

none of the stains of adversity

distract from the real I know

of the power Im connected to

 

Yes it jus a Humble me more and more

The heights jus a show an the bliss jus a show

and a humble mi more and more

The more that I learn show the little that I know

And it humble mi more and more

The truth set me free and encourages me

As it humble mi more and more

Humble mi more and more

 

When I tune into the frequency

none of the stains of adversity

distract from the real I know

of the power Im connected to

Yes it jus a Humble me more and more

 

The heights jus a show an the bliss jus a show

and a humble mi more and more

The more that I learn show the little that I know

And it humble mi more and more

The truth set me free and encourages me

As it humble mi more and more

Humble mi more and more

 

I used to be so sure of things then life began to change

the world becomes a smaller place an overcrowded stage

ambition is the overkill but I am not its slave

so I take away to take a breath and fit how I behave

 

As I let go of the expectations

I start to feel everything go dark

A new found sense finds its activation

blazing wild fire from i heart

one mind ignited finds its way

and everything following is even greater

all I thought I knew melts away

when clay becomes creator

 

it jus a Humble me more and more

The heights jus a show an the bliss jus a show

and a humble mi more and more

The more that I learn show the little that I know

And it humble mi more and more

The truth set me free and encourages me

As it humble mi more and more

Humble mi more and more

 

As I let go of the expectations

I start to feel everything go dark

A new found sense finds its activation

blazing wild fire from i heart

one mind ignited finds its way

and everything following is even greater

all I thought I knew melts away

when clay becomes creator

 

It jus a Humble me

oh it jus a Humble me

Humble me more and more

Do it with all your heart and prosper

Do it with just a part and fail

The service is the worship

So let the will of the most high prevail

when you do it with all your heart and prosper

do it with just a part and fail

the service is the worship

so that the will of the most high prevail

 

The harvest is plenty the fruits a ripe and drop

too many distracted by the rat race to the top

but I and I optimistic

seh Jah nuh make no mistake

confident in all we do and say

cause I and I trodding it the most high way

 

When we Do it with all heart and prosper

Do it with just a part and fail

The service is the worship

So let the will of the most high prevail

when you do it with all your heart and prosper

do it with just a part and fail

the service is the worship

so that the will of the most high prevail

 

Some people want to destruction of their enemies

so that is when they activate

orchestrating vicious strategies

motivated by hate the soulless lay in wait

a generation of vipers

plotting to constrict to the flow

so I and I must know when to to let go

 

And just do it with all your heart and prosper

Do it with just a part and fail

The service is the worship

So let the will of the most high prevail

when you do it with all your heart and prosper

do it with just a part and fail

the service is the worship

so that the will of the most high prevail

 

Kingdom first, all of the feelings must come after

I put Jah first, I mind field awaits for I to master

there must be no malice in me

I journey into self to secure I strength and wealth

And overcome the pressure with laughter

 

When I do it with all i heart i prosper

Do it with just a part and fail

The service is the worship

So let the will of the most high prevail

when you do it with all your heart and prosper

do it with just a part and fail

the service is the worship

so that the will of the most high prevail

so that the will of the most high prevail 

My mind travels back and forth Between all of the different things

I have to be Contemplating the wisdom of my steps… Taken, and to come.

Observing the consequences and outcomes already exposed… the weight of expectations, legitimate or not…

And even how these very words may ricochet in this glass room

Words may not say Exactly how I’m feeling The hurt and the hate And the love I’m receiving

I’m gonna be ok I tell myself while I’m breathing It’s gonna be ok

Remember seh JAH not sleeping 

 

Even when the news channel Weh di tv deh pon

Showing leaders brandishing atomic weapon

Threatening world peace, spreading mass depression

And then Divide and lead the youths dem in the wrong direction

Still I can feel the almighty working

When I take a deep breath and do likkle searching

I an I find, Jah love is infinite

Future looking quite fine

 

But even if it isn’t…

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself)

I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else)

I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (okay okay) 

 

Stress is a common threat To my happiness Mm

But if I let it get too deep (too deep) in a depressive state 

I tell myself be strong and gwan hold the faith

I tell myself there’s reason to celebrate

Things will be great But even if it isn’t 

 

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself)

I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else)

I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (okay) 

 

Persecution is a lesson to bare

And any road that I chose Could be bringing it nearer to me

But there’s a lesson if I let go the fear

That is the code for the goals And it’s making it clearer to me

Sometimes I feel so much that I get over come

But Jah love is real and surely that is where the lesson coming from

 

And even if it isn’t 

I’m going to be okay (that’s what I tell myself) I’m going to be okay (nah watch nobody else) I’m going to be okay (a note to self) I’m going to be okay (Everything is gonna be okay) 

But even if it isn’t 

 

I’m… okay 

Traveling through inner space, Slowing at a constant pace

Focused and relaxing at the same time

Deconstruct reality, then set it how you’d like it to be,

Break the chains and take free; it’s the same crime since slave times

Do what you’ve been taught to do never what you ought to do

Keep it all inside till the time is right

Hold your tongue or hold your breath

Let either lead to certain death 

Let it drift away as you pass the light. 

(Why don’t you) Let me help you find yourself inside your other mind

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Let me help you find yourself inside that other mind

Step outside, leave behind the worries of that other kind 

Let me help you find yourself inside

Let me help you find yourself inside 

Healing me, Reactivating what’s been still in me Makes concentrating come so easily 

It’s the natural key,Created so we can escape and be free 

Let me help you find yourself Inside your other mind

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Let me help you find yourself inside that other mind

Step outside, leave behind the worries of that other kind 

Let me help you find yourself inside Let me help you find yourself inside 

Embrace your high

No limitations when you choose to fly

Excite your senses feel your body try

To remind you that life Is much more than the lie

You perceive with your eyes 

Let me help you find yourself inside your other mind

Step outside and leave behind the worries of that other kind

Let me help you find yourself inside that other mind

Step outside, leave behind the worries of that other kind 

Let me help you

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

Finding a way a way a way over 

I am a social scientist gathering information

Observing different cultures in each of the various nation

Trodding incognito As a Rastafari artist

Instigating revolution with anyone willing to start it

Marketing the mission

As a spiritual experience

And using the opportunity to do some Major reconnaissance

To find out how my people living On the black continents

So we can determine a plan for resistance

And mount an effective defense 

As a way 

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

Finding a way a way a way over 

We calling the healer and the engineers

Teachers and creatorsImpressing on them the urgency

Even helping to process their paper

Sake a common ancestral influence

We sure to find a few

Who not just ready to take instruction

But already know what to do

Those who’ve been reading and preparing

Burning passionately from time

Awaiting engagement Of dem spirit and dem mind

And now that time is upon us Sisters brothers ready your station

For the victory is eminent

Once we commence these activations 

Will find it There is a will in I that will not be silenced born of the first race now of the new race

We who have emerged out of their history of violence against us

Now we’re fully cognizant of how Jah bless us 

and we’re finding a way 

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

A way a way a way over

A way a way out

Finding a way a way a way over 

Akala: The way over’s the way out’s the way in

Seek knowledge and look within

All of the things that we’ve been mistaught

But still we learning I’m so bored to see you distraught It’s really hurting

The world is colder than I ever thought

But Still we burning

A solder can’t mistake war for sport

And that for certain The person, the individual or the collective

All of these things and mean so much more

What’s your perspective

Neglected histories remain hidden

And that’s on purpose

But all we‘ve got to do is some digging

And they resurface We’re often so focused

On how things have become

We forget how many victories

That we have won 

A debt that’s ancestoral I bet a man bet you

That the best you can get You are still lesser than special 

But the way outs the way within

We cannot face everything

But before we can even begin

We must look within 

For a way over

A way out way over

A way out way over

A way out way over

A way out 

 

Oooooo 

Hey you (Hey)

I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see)

Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are)

Remember us (from me) 

I remember you (always, all ways)

I remember you 

Joseph didn’t mean it

But what he caused within his brothers

Was a feeling.

Deep seated insecurity.

Whatever issues inherited where from family

For love and hate are one and the same

It’s the mind of man that changes

So I could be your brother I’ll still become your enemy

If you begin to feel me a threat to what you’re building for yourself

Economics have you thinking there is scarcity

So the power that you tasted

You didn’t want to waste on me but 

Hey you (Hey)

I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see)

Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are)

Remember us (from me)

I remember you (always, all ways)

I remember you 

If you remember Joseph never lost his way

The light that made them envious

Remained and guided him greatness

And when they needed him he was able

To extend salvation from the grips of starvation

Life is funny that way.

For all that I thought had been taken from me 

I needed to shed it wasn’t mine to begin with

And all I see you holding on to

Doesn’t even belong to you

And it’s weighing you down

So now you don’t want me around to see but 

Hey you (Hey) I’m still here (I know)

Remember us (I see) Hey you (you can’t hide )

I’m still here (Who you are) Remember us (from me)

I remember you (always, all ways) I remember you 

Tried to make me a victim

But I resisted I know u remember my fitness (I remember you) 

I blame the whole system

Such a bloody shame

Relationship slain because of ambition (I remember you) 

Lives wasted

Chasing money dreams

And now you’re beautiful light it seems is fading 

But I remember (I remember you) I remember (I remember you)

You are not a king 

You are just a pawn

Scattering the seeds from which the masses will be born

The Emphasis to place on the space you put your tail shows just the kind of weakness that would cause a race the fail

Where did you get it in your head that’s the value are you possess was determined by efficiency of taking off my dress Huh?

Who taught you what it means to be a man don’t blame the absence of a father

Blame the absence of a plan blame the system that would have you drugged and sexing off for sport

Blame the rich when you steal

Then when they catch you blame the court

blame the girls that told you yes

blame the girl that told you no

blame the girl that was your mother 

blame it on the way you grow

So many things you have the opportunity to use as your excuse when you lose

But what if all you had to do to win was to learn from the example of the king 

But he don’t love highly always on the low

Heart overfull but he don’t want it to show

He don’t love highly Ever feeling down draining the energy when ever he around

He don’t love highly

So the chance is kind of slim not taking no

Time to give Ises unto him who is the light

And the law the truth and he way

So i can’t let him get to me 

GQ pimp type hustling fly Helping himself to the bulk of the pie

Never complained when the sign did a show now everything is crumbling wouldn’t you know

Fast pace brain freeze Sikkling Heart 

Fearing a future Before the start Of the moves that will lead him Astray

Unless Haile is leading the way 

But he don’t love highly always on the low

Heart overfull but he don’t want it to show

He don’t love highly ever feeling down Draining the energy when ever he’s around

He don’t love highlySo the chance is kind of slim

Not taking no time To give Ises unto him

Who is the light and the law The truth and the way

So i can’t let him get to me 

For he don’t love highlyHe don’t love highlyHe don’t love highly

He don’t love highly

So he’s falling 

I can’t let him get to me

No I can’t let him get to me

I can’t let him get to me

No I can’t let him get to me

(Give thanks for H.I.M Emperor Haile Selassie the First and Empress Menin) 

I take a risk I let him inI am afraid I admit to him

This type of surrender Wasn’t on the agenda

But the love from this bredda Is inspiring 

Him don’t have no moneyHim still kinda young

A lover and a fighter

But a Jah sen him come This type of surrender wasn’t on the agenda

But I find that this bredda 

Is i reflection 

Love has found I Finally For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I Finally Taking it slow But not letting go! 

I’m not one to trust

A man full of lust

I don’t fish for compliment I’m real serious

But love from the lion Brings access to Zion

And the queen him rely on

Fulfills her purpose 

I journey as omega

Is to Keep alpha strong

I compliment his nature

And define his function

So love from the lion Brings access to

Zion Masculine and feminine United as one 

Love has found I Finally

For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example 

of the King

Love has found I Finally

Taking it slow

But not letting go! 

I feel like Empress Menin When she just sight the King For the first time

She was a little older

But he was the holder Of the key to her heart 

All the struggles and lessons and the heart ache

How much can one woman’s heart take

Til Haile step een Like something from a dream

The conquering Lion

Turned a girl Into a queen 

Love has found I Finally

For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I Finally Taking it slow

But not letting go! 

I take a risk

I let him in 

I am not afraid I trust the king

Haile Selassie Seal the trinity

With Empress Menin

And show man how Fi get the power

Through the reuniting 

Duality is evidence

We both are the same

One in the principle

Just two separate name

Reminder of the balance

That we have to maintain

The peace is it possible to gain

Now that 

 

Love has found I

Finally For I heart him bring the healing

Him learn from the example of the King

Love has found I

Finally

Taking it slow

But not letting go!

Singy Singy, 9 is willing

Communion from evening to day (each day)

This music is my saving grace 

If not for the music..I don’t know how

I woulda made it that’s the truth

With the pressure from slave mill

And the system on a little black youth

Even before I heard the calling

Jumped outta sleep grab pen and paper

Expression has been my savior

How it help you connect to the soul

And from the elders we learn bout the music

Communion from evening to day(each day)

This music is my saving grace 

Play, play, play

Tell me I’m ready

When will you tell me

Oo I’m ready

Why don’t you tell me 

Mr. Bassman I just have to watch your fingers

Then just wait for inspiration to flow

Keep it upful for the message

I’m presenting to the people

And the drums gonna hold to the balance 

And the order and the justice

And the truth and the love Maat in high hat, so just 

Tell me when you’re ready to play

Say one word and I will be there

With the tools of my trade

Communion from evening to day (each day)

This music is my saving grace 

Music is release, From suffering

Music soothes the beast,

That lies within

That’s why we keep the meditation optimistic

Redefining realistic

Creating universes while music

And it’s magic when we do it as a unit 

So just tell me when you’re ready to play

Say one word and I will be there

With the tools of my trade

Communion from evening to day (each day)

This music is my saving grace

Time and space Lyrics and melody 

 

Tell me when you’re ready… 

I am grateful to have music

Since I was a yout to now

This skill is seasoned into it

Like deep stretch

And it is an honour to be able to serve with it

Especially since it’s been serving I well.

I give thanks for everyone who has given and taken from me on this trod:

My teachers, my students.

I feel you too… listening, doing your own rough work… more strength on your own journey

Perfect love 

Tell me what you see

When u look at me, oo

Tell me do u know

How high how low 

Can u see the road 

The soul of a poet

The mind of a poet

The body of the goddess

And the heart of the king 

She blessed and she know it

Serene when she show it JAH JAH fire blazing

In the voice when she sing

Her life is invested

Her faith has been tested

The fruit of her ambition

Is surrender to the promise

Of eternal life

Because she know the Heights 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus I notice She is in another place 

And she smiling Rested Peaceful and free Makes me wonder if it could be me

Could it be me 

Her heart is contented Her lips have repented

Forgiveness is the method 

That she uses to deal

All her expectations

Have been tempered by patience

Forged like a sword of the greatest steel 

Now her days now are all splendid The worries have ended

Skillful when deciphering the symbols on the journey to eternal life

Because she know the height 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus

I notice

She is in another place 

And she whispering Something That I wish I could hear

Makes me want to be there

Makes me want To be there 

Could it be, could it be me

Could it be, could it be me 

The soul of a poet

The mind of a poet

The body of the goddess

And the heart of the king 

She blessed and she know it

Serene when she show it JAH JAH fire blazing 

In the voice when she sing

Her life is invested

Her faith has been tested

The fruit of her ambition Is surrender to the promise of eternal life

Because she know the Heights, ooo 

I see her in my reflection

I recognize her face

But when I focus

I notice

She is in another place 

And she smiling Rested Peaceful and free

Makes me wonder if it could be me

Could it be me

It is written that faith is the substance of things unseen.

This only holds true if one can grasp and appreciate the limitless nature of intelligent design at work, within the UNSEEN. 

To cast the seeds of my imagination and know with certainty that fruit is on the way… there is a way. 

It takes knowing to trust the unknown 

So faith is not belief… it’s knowing 

Removing doubt as I make note of every personal victory one at a time.

Reawakening and restoring the Most High within myself as I study her… me… I 

And knowing Iself… is mastery 

 

One who is ready… will do the work.

I’m beginning to wonder about your intensions

Too many instances of deception

Too many alibis and excuses

Too many attempts to deny the abuses

Too many reasons to complain

Too many losses too little gain

The very existence is a strain on the people

 

I know cause I am woman so I can see

That life don’t reside where there isn’t no harmony

And I sing cause I care and wouldn’t want anybody

That I love to be circumstanced out of existence

 

Yes I’m beginning to wonder about your attention

where is it focusing in what direction

is your life force in execution

forming opinions or finding solutions

declaring the victim, sharing the blame

representing the potential for change but only in name

then with taxation and oppression put a strain on the people

 

I speak what I know; Words are reserved for the truth

Not perfect but aware of the example I set for the youth

And I sing cause I care and wouldn’t want none of these sons and daughters

To go astray when I could have paved the way

 

Yes I’m beginning to tire of all these expenses

Borne by the people relegated to zinc fences

Keeping the resources out of their reach

Breeding frustration with the values you teach

In the media everyday then deny them a way to attain it

But force them to work and maintain it and not take a share

Then the police force the fear into the brains of the people

 

I know from experience that the system is flawed and unfair

So I live outside it as much as I possibly dare

and I sing for justice in a time when the people

may be too distracted to even care

my voice will still be there

 

The people have to work so hard while those with the power keep the plenty for themselves. Meaningless competition for scares resources in a material driven world. Our children have no example of integrity and industry and love. And so for these atrocities against humanity the perpetrators will have to pay.

 

I know from experience that the system is flawed and unfair

So I live outside it as much as I possibly dare

and I sing for justice in a time when the people

may be too distracted to even care

my voice will still be there

Mr. Preacher man

What you got to say to di nation,

Mr. Preacher man

What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away

 

I’ve been a believer for all of my life

But there’ve been constant conflicts my mind

The people are hurting and crying and searching waiting for a reason to go on

And all you can say is go pray and be patient it won’t be this way for too long

Sitting and waiting to me that seems crazy,

Making them lazy in your congregation

Pleading to a Savior an emancipator

whose very behavior proves you wrong

So tell me

 

Mr. Preacher man

What you got to say to di nation,

Mr. Preacher man

What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away

 

Since the very beginning you’ve told them the end was near

Fearing damnation they buy their salvation, not living while they’re still here

But you will have to ansa too, for all di tings unnu neva do,

Cause what you teach in Sunday school, you don’t demonstrate

A use emotions tie dem down instead a sen dem fi go roun’

and live di words wha dem a soun’, mek dem participate

 

Mr. Preacher man

What you got to say to di nation,

Mr. Preacher man

What you goin to say when the youts dem turn away

 

Di people caught up in religion, traditions of a people

Who did hold us in subjection, rejection of the power that was in our possession

Before all a dis regression back when we an di creator had an intimate relationship

before dem even lan’ ova pon di motherlan’

before dem even get fi ask di question

if we needed dem religion,  dem givin’ it to we

a look excuse fi carry dem infection cross di sea

den dem tek di ancient people put dem into slavery

rape and murder in di holy name of Christianity

yes religion is the tool, was the tool of the oppressor

cause they never plan to set the people free.

So tell mi

 

Mr. Preacher man

What is your reaction to the problems dat we facing

Is not no blame we placing, we jus pleadin we case in

Di best way dat we can

please help the I dem overstand

please help the I dem overstand

 

Mr. Preacher man

What you got to say to di nation,

Oh Mr. Preacher man

when the youts dem turn away

Tell me Mr. Preacher Man

What you got to say?

Gratitude is fuel for the actions I partake in

so in doing what I love I get to keep it up

Perceptions leave much room to be mistaken

so in doing what I say I word is covenant

 

I expect nothing but the best from iself

Not myself or me putting personality

under subordination of the master key

which is the Most High in I and I

 

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he

what ever you dwelling on is the reality that you’re creating

Use your concentration wisely

because your only limitation is your imagination

 

Priority one is to focus on the Most High in the meditation

Develop the routine, keep the room clean

Balance the physical and spiritual accommodation

sip daily from the written word learn from the example

then put it into practical use within your temple

the real work is to know the truth is the seed

the real life is to grow into what you need

 

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he

what ever you dwelling on is the reality that you’re creating

Use your concentration wisely

because your only limitation is your imagination

 

Trapped inside the flesh requiring emancipation

from the source of the vexation which is the enemy

anyhow you let the mind control corrupt your state of meditation

You compromise the soul lose focus of the goal

And move further from the free

where you ought to be, shaping your destiny

guided by the Most High no need for competition

when creative cultivation of the nation is the mission

 

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he

what ever you dwelling on is the reality that you’re creating

Use your concentration wisely

Haile Iditation with this collie on my brain

Steaming censimenia’s most potent native strain

Absorption of the essence frees most every mental chain

Concentrate then dehydrate then load it up again

 

And get taken up, taken up, into the celestial

Sweetest high that you could ever find

Vapours soaking in, of the green

Tap into the potential of your mind

 

Now a warning to the weak fence make sure you’re on the defense

Before you let the chains fall

‘cause when you hit that first cough illusions start to burst off

composure is the protocol

steaming on the high grade can sometimes leave you sideways

depending on the content of your heart

Jah children will reach the Most High

While the wicked and the evil fall apart

 

When you’re taken up, taken up, into the celestial

Sweetest high that you could ever find

Vapours soaking in, of the green

Tap into the potential of your mind

 

Interlude

 

Now lets focus on the flavor

Mango macka from St. E

Pardon my behavior while I talk about the green

But there’s a moment in that first draw

When you exhale, then you inhale, then you hold it

then you taste it, then you exhale, then you feel it,

then you see what  mean

 

When you’re taken up, taken up, into the celestial

Sweetest high that you could ever find

Vapours soaking in, of the green

Tap into the potential of your mind

I like this boy

Standing out in all the clutter

I like this boy

This is what I’m saying to myself

I know this boy

From where I cannot place a finger

But I know this boy

Must belong to someone else

For he is so confident

I can tell from his posture

And so intelligent

It’s like he’s emanating light

This brother can represent

And he is so perfectly humble

For one so beautiful and bright

 

He must be Mr. Right

almost bubble wrapped, perfectly packaged for me

My, Mr. Right, tell me your intensions

for they are a mystery

 

A sense of humour

Keeps me laughing even when I’m not in the mood

My personal tutor

Exemplifying features of the perfect attitude

I feel a private pain

Every time he calls my name

He rattles my self defense

By his very existence

 

He must be Mr. Right

almost bubble wrapped, perfectly packaged for me

My, Mr. Right, tell me your intensions

for they are a mystery

 

interlude

 

Asking, wanting, checking checking

The universe has brought him to me

Patience composure taking getting

His attention and honesty

Gasping breathless I can hardly believe

There is reciprocity

But he like to take things slow

And this is how I know

 

He must be Mr. Right

almost bubble wrapped, perfectly packaged for me

My, Mr. Right, tell me your intensions

for they are a mystery

It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair

for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes

Generations have grown in the same situation:

tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes

The people never have enough and children are born fatherless

and families have no one to rely on

so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears

the pride needs defending by a lion

 

will you be the one for the mountains and valleys are these city streets

will you be the one to keep looking forward and never retreat

 

 

in this jungle out there with so many limitations

set intentionally just for us to fail

with your plans in motion and standing in your power

and strength from your lioness you’re bound to prevail

the mission is for those who can endure

and wont stand for injustice and oppression no more

and the journey is for everyone to share

when the lions are leading there is nothing to fear

 

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets

will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

 

A future for the youth must be priority

Establishing a nation where they all will be free

To focus on spiritual cultivation

and find themselves through ancient preparation

 

in this jungle out there some people mek the evil rule dem nature

turning life into a rat race

and the youths dem head a burn cause the only thing they’re learning

from those people’s how to rob you to your face

instead of giving them guidance and encouragement

you’re provoking them daily giving rise to resent

but the tension that they’re building up inside

will find direction and purpose in the lion pride

 

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets

will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

 

oh ‘cause it’s a jungle out there

 

interlude

 

A future for the youth must be priority

Establishing a nation where they all will be free

So the lionesses rise to the occasion

And nurture them with conscious meditation

 

 

It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair

for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes

Generations have grown in the same situation:

tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes

The people never have enough and children are born fatherless

and families have no one to rely on

so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears

the pride needs defending by a lion

Imagine, if Marcus Garvey was the youths dem example

 what the future would be promising

Imagine if Haile was the teacher and the scriptures were speeches

to prepare them for the journey to begin

A new perspective on history to enlighten the mistery

immediately before it seeps in

An opportunity, for unity

 

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout

Is your son your daughter your sister your brother

A part of who you must become

In the event, of revolution

 

Imagine if initiation was a part of the process

 to teach the youths dem discipline

imagine how learning would be heightened by a positive example

by the ones to whom the youths dem listening

integrity and humility were a given

the standard by which we’d be living

like one righteous militant community

in unity

 

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout

Is your son your daughter your sister your brother

A part of who you must become

In the event, of revolution

 

 No need to speak specifics there are those who breed hatred

To keep those together apart

But remember that justice is real living judgment

Like cancer you can plant in your own heart

So when it’s hot on the mission even those who lack vision

Can confidently trust in the youth

If we arm them with the truth

Strong and sterdy from the root

 

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout

Is your son your daughter your sister your brother

A part of who you must become

In the event, of revolution

 

For they are who we will become

In the event

Of revolution

The solid basis for all lies in education. It is education, which allows people to live together, and makes them avoid the pitfalls of immorality, and induces respect “for the law. Truly, the attainment of these high aims is based on education. The helping of people to live together to avoid indulgence immorality and lawlessness. To command and to be commanded is the fruit of education and unity and confidence is the result. Education of the youth is the surest guarantee for a better life. From truth alone are born liberty and only an educated people can consider itself really free and master of it’s fate.”

 

– HIM Haile Selassie I

 

Each one must teach one.

Legitimate or not

Some claim indemnity from the original plot

As though their integrity cold still be intact

What is likelihood of that

when if you trace the source of each resource they’ve got

They’re tapped into the veins of the masses the system maintains

Feeding on their youthfulness and draining from their brains

Then when the weak ones are rejected armed and turned toward the strife

They return with force and take away their life

 

But make no mistake

There is life in abundance for all to partake

So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love

But too many put feelings in the place of love

We all are the same

the essence of life in this physical plane

And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love

 

Yes I remember the censorship of showing your roots

Deception with no lye conditioning for the youths

Straightening their follicles while twisting their minds

Replacing old tradition with their programs for decline

But as I rebel my natty swells defiant of the taming

My natural advantage I’m proclaiming

These spirals map the course of life and represent the force of life

Connected to the source of life

 

So make no mistake

There is life in abundance for all to partake

So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love

But too many put feelings in the place of love

We all are the same

the essence of life in this physical plane

And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love

 

So I have no fear

And though I have no enemy I am aware

That the few seek the plenty for themselves

And justice is rare without material wealth

When we delegate our fate to someone else

but fortunately, I claim dominion over my destiny

with the wisdom and power from knowledge of the key

the tree of life is rooted in me

so even in the midst of trials I am free

 

so make no mistake

There is life in abundance for all to partake

So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love

But too many put feelings in the place of love

We all are the same

the essence of life in this physical plane

And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love

 

so make no mistake

There is life in abundance for all to partake

So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love

But too many put feelings in the place of love

We all are the same

the essence of life in this physical plane

And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love

The only double life that I lead is the fact that I’m a spiritual being

An indivisible duality accountable only to my self

My physical is sacred not a product for a shelf, not for sale no need to prep

Except for the protection of my mind and self respect

Through daily meditation , I find my inspiration and secure my motivation

as I introspect, I learn to know myself

 

I seek an inner voice to help me making my choices

 in this western world bombarded by so many noises

I am a stranger here but still I have no fear

For in fulfillment of my purpose my soul rejoices

 

My only challenge is to better know this feminine divine which I aspire to

The lessons learnt have brought me to a place of peace

 for what  cannot change I know I must release

so with patience and humility  face the world

god manifested in the flesh but still a little girl

I will give freely of my time and energy

Knowing the creator will replenish me

 

I seek for inner strength to recognize the wealth

Of opportunities provided in my daily ventures

I am a stranger here still I will have no fear

For the source of my potential is infinite

 

Spending the moments as a sacred gift

the heights I can attain provide a constant lift

My spirit recognizes others on their journeys way

Representing for the anciency in present day

There is a light the shines from a fire deep

Within my consciousness a treasure that inspires me to keep my peace

For  in the stillness is the key to creation

Of wealth and happiness from positive vibration

 

And my inner light will help me see and know the right

Way to prepare and persevere when it comes time to fight

For I’m a stranger here, but I will have no fear

For the sun still shines regardless of the darkest night

 

Seek for your inner voice to help you make your choices

Learn to differentiate between the truth and the noises

As a stranger here, you must never fear

For the knowing of your self is cause for great rejoicing

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 

don’t let them draw you out

maintain composure in spite of whats going on

speak the truth or hold your mouth

 

All this talking 

everyone seems to have an answer or a question to state

then when the tension’s sparking

everyone is quite content to wait until the danger dissipates

because the eloquence and intellect mastered by the few

are really not indicative of what they can do

so rather than be guided by the words of someone else

seek the truth for yourself… and

 

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 

don’t let them draw you out

maintain composure in spite of whats going on

speak the truth or hold your mouth

 

Egos flaring 

making it impossible for progress even when the way is clear

no self defeat preparing 

to take away your drive and leave you crippled barely walking ’cause of fear

because the violence and injustice perpetrated by the few

are highly indicative of what they will do to you

so join the competition for a coffin or a stripe 

or make your own way and choose life… by

 

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 

don’t let them draw you out

maintain composure in spite of whats going on

speak the truth or hold your mouth 

 

See when the light is shining 

learn and overstand the way the cycles regulate the course of life

tune in to natural timing

forget about the obstacles focus on the goals you have in sight

because perspective makes the difference between tragedy

and things meant to provide you with an opportunity

yes consciousness will guide you and keep you in the right

just stay focused on the light… and

 

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 

don’t let them draw you out

maintain composure in spite of whats going on

speak the truth or hold your mouth

This one is a warning…

 

Watch the language that you use

Ensure our comprehension with the words that you choose

If you don’t simplify your statement our attention you will loose

Unless you are intentionally trying to confuse

Cause I refuse to sit back and watch you hold the people down

Floating in your top position while di rest o dem a drown

Cause in the sentence of creation all you are is just a noun

But we’re the verbs those action words that put power to the sound

And that’s way beyond profound cause when the wealth is for the few

They feel that there is no one they should have to answer to

So the things that they will say are not the things that they will do

Cause even after all the talk the people still don’t have a clue

But at least this must is true, information is the key

Yes knowledge is the only way the people can be free

So it isn’t just a choice it’s our responsibility

To keep aware so you can judge if what they say is what you see

 

Cause this one is a warning…

 

So watch the language that dem use

Ensure you’re comprehending all the words wha a choose

Learn to simplify their statements and to analyze the clues

Because it seems they are intentionally trying to confuse

So refuse… cause is ignorance a hold the people down

So reach toward enlightenment and you can never drown

Cause in the question of creation you are greater than the noun

You’re the verbs those action words that put power to the sound

And we will burn this to the ground. Because the wealth is for the few

And it seems like there is no one they should have to answer to

But now they fear they’re not aware of what the people plan to do

Raising up a people’s army out of every ghetto crew

Unite the people with the truth, cause information is the key

Yes knowledge is the only way the people will be free

So it isn’t just a choice it’s our responsibility

To keep aware so you can judge if what they say is what you see

 

Cause this one is a warning…

There is tension building inside i and I’m trusting i spirit to guide i

Even if no else overstands I have got to do what it demands

i eyes and ears might deceive i and friends and family might leave i

But is righteous tension a brew so I must prepare for what I might have to do

 

I don’t have a problem in the world

solution oriented, simple island girl

Passionate, compassionate with patience as a science

Endorsing love and unity promoting self reliance

Balancing  I emotions tempering i temperament

Maintaining i composure and learning when to vent

But as injustice and oppression grip the masses more and more

The constant pressure makes them numb but instead it makes i sure

 

That there is tension building inside i and I’m trusting i spirit to guide i

Even if no else overstands I have got to do what it demands

i eyes and ears might deceive i and friends and family might leave i

But is righteous tension a brew so I must prepare for what I might have to do

 

Misleaders use semantics, to manipulate us

Meaningless promises to keep us in a state of

Catatonic apprehension empty hands up to the sky

The art of misdirection used to disguise the lie

Telling us decisions made are for our good, by those whom we elect

When in actuality they merely reflect

An ulterior agenda to make profit in their term

So the people only matter when those people help them earn

So dem currup’ system get burn… hot

 

That’s why there’s tension building inside i and I’m trusting i spirit to guide i

Even if no else overstands I have got to do what it demands

i eyes and ears might deceive i and friends and family might leave i

But is righteous tension a brew so I must prepare for what I might have to do

 

Imagine the morning you awake to find the soldiers on your street

Armored tanks on every boulevard and police on every beat

Helicopters hovering but a stillness in the air

How will you be feeling? relieved? Or filled with fear?

Then the radio announces that the leader’s going to speak

Adrenaline explodes as your attention starts to peak

He says “you may already notice all the plans for your protection”

They’ve been put in place to neutralize potential insurrection

But have no fear the force is here with tear gas, bombs and guns

So no undesirables can compromise the flow of funds

Tell me where will you be standing what will you plan to do?

When you realize the enemy is you!

 

Which side of the law are you on? are you with the masses or are you the protected one?

What side of the law holds your place? Do they defend you or can they stick that gun in your face?

Tell me where does your allegiance lie? Does the struggle entertain you or does it make you cry?

Is it clear where your conscience resides? One day you may have to deside

 

That’s why there is tension building inside

but I’m never gonna give Jah up

No matter what

Simplicity in everything…

 

Jah is I sword and Shield

Haile give I everything I need

HIM alone is rightful divine government

Jah trod this earth as flesh

As the evidence that life conquer death

HIM alone I livity must represent

 

The final frontier, the real battlefield it is within our consciousness

the prize to be won, the victory to be gained is within our hearts

the love we reflect, the hate we reject

is testament to whether the Most High is present and reigning on the throne

or is the enemy convince us we can go it alone when

 

Jah is I sword and Shield

Haile give I everything I need

HIM alone is rightful divine government

Jah trod this earth as flesh

As the evidence that life conquer death

HIM alone I livity must represent

 

Him mek all other government irrelevant irrespective of material things

all other church and state will have to abdicate in the presence of the king of kings

the war we have to fight is for truth and right

the chains of oppression will be breaking

no weapon couldn’t stand a chance

with Haile Selassie I leading the advance

 

the truth of I plan, the strength of i hand are granted by the mercy

forgiveness from wrong and salvation are granted by the grace

confuse becomes clear

illusions disappear the more I get to know of him

revelation now has meaning, ‘cause I have seen his face

 

and Jah is I sword and Shield

Haile give I everything I need

HIM alone is rightful divine government

Jah trod this earth as flesh

As the evidence that life conquer death

HIM alone I livity must represent

 

HIM alone is rightful divine government

Jah trod this earth as flesh

HIM alone

onto their money God young lives will be destroyed

and all those for sale are going to weep and wail

economics will determine their worth

while the meek shall inherit the earth

 

and there’ll be showers of blessings falling on I

Jah is I portion on Jah will supply all I need

so tell dem to stay far with dem selfish strategy

lightning and brimstone pon greed

 

Freedom time from all dis-ease and broken minds

the Nation must grow all the food and the herb and the healing

they’ve known all along, they must be reminded with this song

that United we are strong and by the grace of the almighty one there will be

 

Showers of blessings falling on I

Jah is I portion on Jah will supply all I need

so tell dem to stay far with dem selfish strategy

lightning and brimstone pon greed

 

Poisoning our bodies, poisoning all minds

keeping us distracted, wasting what time

unless with active consciousness,

we overcome the programming

and step outside the lines of control

in this battle for our soul, the only chance for freedom is to take

it life is what you make it

you can be complacent and remain

but there is everything to gain

for those who are called by Jah name

 

Yes Showers of blessings falling on I

Jah is I portion on Jah will supply all I need

so tell dem to stay far with dem selfish strategy

lightning and brimstone pon greed

 

lightening I load when I’m trodding on Jah road

lightening I heart if I’m willing to do my part

lighting I way, guiding I footsteps helping I stay

humble and wise every day

 

as these showers of blessings fall on I and I

Tell me what you’re ready for 

Tell me what you’re ready for 

We Ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We Ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

What is in an open road
That should frighten you
And make you lose your composure
The mind can be your greatest foe When you do not know
What’s lurking over your shoulder But inner Chi will light your way
It’s not accidentally in the life of a soldier 

In this battle for a brighter day
It’s of yourself you slay
The thing that try to hold ya 

So just forget about the past mistakes and all that didn’t take 

And all the non believers
We sight the one who don’t have what it takes
And love to war and trace
No they can not deceive us
The sun come out to shine on every face
And in a blazing phase it strips away the pretense
They lose their way trying to keep the pace While we effortless breaking down defenses 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

I don’t know when I let this voice of dissent
Come in and mess with my head
When I‘m so naturally blessed Yes the sacrifices I people made Reparations are still unpaid
But my potential is unrestrained And I’m about to reveal it now 

I just forget about the past mistakes and all that didn’t take 

And all the non believers
We sight the one who don’t have what it takes
And love to war and trace
No they can not deceive us
The sun come out to shine on every face 

And in a blazing phase it strips away the pretense
They lose their way trying to keep the pace While we effortless breaking down defense 

Cause we ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no
We Ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no We ready fi go seal it now
And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

We ready fi di feeling now
We never gonna be let down no
We ready fi go seal it now And It’s heaven when we set it
And we wheel it out now 

Tell me what you’re ready for Tell me what you’re ready for

To each his own
Each man stands alone
We each must bring
A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So keep it light as a feather
And fly away 

These days it seems that everyone is on some twisted mission
To make a great impression
To boost their likes and ratings
Faking friendship just to get ahead
As jaded as the walking dead
Becoming the norm as corruption spread
But truth is always waiting
Much of what we’ve been taught to love or fear, are just moments on the journey here
We must choose what we keep Or let go Believe what your told or seek and go know 

To each his own
Each man stands alone 

We each must bring,

A sacrifice or an offering
And what we pay, will be weighed
When we meet our judgment day
So keep it light as a feather
And fly away 

Nuff a dem claim dem righteous tru dem seh Ital,
No meat, very little salt or sweet
Tru dem fit and full of intelligence
With great confidence to just speak
But we see seh dem secretly full of fear 

And so hopelessly unaware
Of how a loving heart and peaceful thoughts Keep the conscience clear
So we say caution to the scornful
Your pride is gonna be your downfall
Be humble when you’re corrected, receive it willingly and be grateful
Because love is what a one is expected to use To effectively govern decision
So with all the long term planning and precision you ready if di mission? 

To each his own
Each man stands alone
We each must bring a sacrifice or an offering and what we pay will be weighed when we meet our judgment day so keep it light as a feather 

And fly away 

Fly away From the social drama Fly away
From the theatres of war
Fly away
From the minstrel show karma Fly away
Into full bloom and power 

I am a pillar of strength
Firm at the core
I and I sisters and brothers will endure
What we represents together is concentrated pure
Unselfish, raw, creation, law, Order, Divine, 0 to 9
