religiously painting these pictures, been making these hits since 96 when I made my first break in the business I got bit more than once, miff snakes in the kitchen - faker than pictures wanted out already hated the bitchness instead I made my decision and played my position as David vs. Goliath started getting greater ambitions so they holdin us back, love to create a division but I'm biidgin the gap, link with Jamaicans in Kingston

chorus
...babylon a set up them scheme and them trap and them plan
and still a study evil

I need a piece of music and some peace of mind a piece of paper just speak my mind I turn it up and meditate and it feels so fine it's something more than just beats and rhymes it's entertainment and education bringin forth changes through motivation iniversal language - communication it's my occupation!

why them fighting it, why them fighting it? when mi see so much brown and black and white in it why them fighting it, why them fighting it? music is a mission so mi tell'em say again yo!

91 - recorded my first song with Embee travelled with music I never knew how long it'd take me cut through with love in my heart though the wrongs would tempt me always makin sure that my songs ain't empty from message, emotion, the essence: devotion the pressure's enormous I'm crossing the Dcean Sweden, germany, ja and new york man shango come in - I'm through talking

chorus
...songs of joy - for the people, make mi brrrrr! pull up and
give me it again!

chorus
...babylon nah try fi shut it down - cus you can't touch mi
sound (say again)

music is a mission - get up, get up! singin out songs of joy and it's my proffesion - get up, get up! it's my religion babylon wanna shut it down from Sweden to kïngston (and all over the world) when they just can't stop the sound (can't stop won't stop)
