Wildfire

Come and give me that Wildfire!
The uncivilized sound that I love
The primitive, like a blaze style!
Consciousness vibes I and I know
The untamed flame that I desire!
Me want uncultivated Jah glow
Foolish intensity, versatile!
He'll fly the spirit high, take me higher!

One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire will never end

One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire never ends

I want to feel that Wildfire!
Irregular burning of the sun
Shining through, make you spit fire!
Savage combustion, let it go
Impetuous, fervor testifier!
Outlandish passions I know
Crucial rhythms no Denial!
Musical nation, Empire!

One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire will never end

One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire never ends

One leads with the passion
Tribal fire will never end
The righteous will burn again
Tribal fire will never end
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire will never end
Tribal fire will never end

One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire never ends




Will You

Verse 1:
See you sittin' next to
The window in the bedroom
She breaks down (breaks down)
Cryin' over something
And starin' into nothing
Afraid now (hey now)
Wanting, needing, haunting
Its killing me
Thinking what has happened
To live the life like that, man
I break down
It's fake now

Chorus:
Will you
Will you love me tomorrow?
So will you
Will you stay with me today?

Verse 2:
Afraid and out of reasons
To fight the way she's feeling
She breaks down (breaks down)
Goin' through the motions
And holdin' onto hopes
And a dream now (somehow)
Shaken (shaken), mistaken (mistaken), forsaken (forsaken)
Its killing me
Wishing you can change
But he's always been the same
If you leave now
I'll drown

Chorus:
Will you
Will you love me tomorrow?
So will you
Will you stay with me today?
Will you
Will you be here tomorrow?
So will you
You'll remember yesterday.

Yesterday (4x)

Bridge:
This time I'm sorry
This time I'm sorry
This time, this time
I'm sorry for this time
This time, this time
I'm sorry
This time I'm sorry.

(3x)
Will you
Will you love me tomorrow?
So will you
Will you stay with me today?
Will you
Will you be here tomorrow?
So will you
You'll remember yesterday.




Change The World

Imagine a place only your soul can vision
The heart of a child who looks, sees and listens
She paints a picture using every color
And what she sees, she sees is like no other

Chorus
One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
With everything I know you're made of
One word, a voice unheard
You can change the world
If everyone would stop and listen
The art of innocence makes so much sense
But placed in the wrong hands, then its wasted
filtered through the eyes of a pure mind
A one-o-a-kind paradise for you and I




Execute The Sounds

I man a mad stylee, ungerground
We come cool and deadly, with that natural sound
It make you feel so free, you no turn it down
Vibes 619 from the Southtown
And Jah know, what I & I gonna do
Because Jah know, I man stay true
You know Jah know, the real who is who
Ain't no time to fake it, make it feel brand new
It goes 1,2,3 the crew is called P.O.D.
And if you want to go to the tiptop
Break it down with that one drop

Chorus:
Execute the sounds
Positive come around
Impact the sounds
Positive all around

You want to mess with me, try to take this crown
Babylon test we, me go smash them down
Original O.G., this is my playground
No take me seriously, you gonna feel it now
I man know the harder they come
Because I man a gonna get the job done
You know I man know they don't want none
Me never cheat, 'cause me already won
1904, home to the real hardcore
And you don't want to sleep, don't talk
I'll break you down with that one drop

Chorus




Find My Way

I don't know how to let you go
I've given to you all of me, all that I'll ever be
We share the same heart and soul
I want you to believe in me
See through my eyes and you will know
I'll take my chance that you will come home to me
Even if it takes some time for you to work it out
I'll be there

Chorus:
I still got a ways to go
So far away from home
Inside I always knew
I would find my way to you x2
Find my way.......

If I could be everything you want
If I could change everything that I have done
Only you know where I have gone
I want to prove I am worthy to be called yours
I need you more than I ever have
And I don't want to stay, try and find me if you can
If I get lost along the way, please don't forget me
Know that I'll be here

Chorus
I'll be there........
I'll find my way to you.........




Revolution

More calm than a heartbeat that flatlines
Quiet like a dark street, under the moonlight
A phrase of action that's been screamed from the guts of men
Ever since their experienced injustice, prejudice, discrimination
A word louder that a gunshot
And softer that a baby's laugh
It will pass, just like it always has
Until it spits off the lips of the next man who's had it up to here

Chorus 1:
Did somebody say a revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution (solution)

Not the first or the last to imagine it
Acknowledge the concepts, question and grasp it
Reber against the I, bring down the self
Mutiny Me! Overthrow You!
Rebellion starts within
The time is now!

Chorus 2:
Did somebody say a revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution (solution)
Did somebody say a revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution?
Your revolution

Bridge:
Purple skies, devil eyes, hypnotize
Little lies, compromise, fireflies
Samurais, parasite, fly by night, after life, materialize
Look alike, stereotype, do or die, lullaby, black and white

Chorus 3:
Did somebody say a revolution?
Or is it all in my head? (your revolution)
Is that what it takes to make a solution (solution, your revolution)
Did somebody say a revolution?
Or at least it's been said (your revolution)
I that what it takes to make a solution?
Your revolution (no resolution)
Your revolution (what's your solution?)
Your revolution (no substitution)
Your revolution (no resolution)
Your revolution (not your solution)




The Reasons

It's just the way it goes everybody does
And nobody said I can't
And this is how I feel and I just wanted to
I really thought I could

Chorus:

Because, the reasons why, oh,
Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try (because, I try)
to make you see these things the way I do

It is what it is and that's too bad for you
I don't even care
Why can't I? Why not?
And I do what I want
And its cuz I said so

Chorus:
Because, the reasons why oh,
Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try (because, I try)
to make you see these things the way I do

Because, the reasons why oh, (because, why oh)
Why do we do the things we do?
Because, the reasons (the reason, decide)
The reasons the reasons

Why, ohhh
Why, ohhh
Why, ohhh
Why, ohhh

Because, the reasons why oh,
Why do we do the things we do?
Because, I try (because, I try)
To make you see these things the way I do

Because, the reasons why oh, (because, why oh)
Why do we do the things we do?
Because the reasons because the reasons (reasons, decide)
I try to reason

OhhhOhhh

OhhhOhhh

OhhhOhhh




Freedom Fighters

Today I heard what dem a people say
Dem want to live free, greedy and don't care who pays
You play under the sun, while others fight in the skies of gray
I say if you don't like it this way, then why stay, go away

Chorus:
Freedom fighters
Ignite Jah
Freedom fighters
Shine Jah
Live free, be free, die free

Today I heard what dem a people say
Dem say the man came in and took our choise away
You portray selfishness and hate, while some prepare to die today
I say you'll fade away, appreciate life, and liberate

Chorus

Bridge:
We have the right to live in peace
You must fight for what you keep
If what you keep holds truth inside
Stand up, defend, or lay down and die

Chorus




Waiting On Today

I'm wishin', searchin' for somethin'
And life is goin' on
Time is tickin', and I'm sleepin'

I feel it comin' on
I feel it comin' on
We keep it comin' on
So keep livin' on, livin' on

Chorus:
Waiting on today to tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today to tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

I'm missin' the days of back then
And life is goin' on
Alive and kickin', we knew the meanin'

And now we're movin' on
And now we're movin' on
We keep it movin' on
So keep livin' on livin' on

Waiting on today to tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today to tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

Waiting on today to tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today to tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

I feel it comin' on
And now we're movin' on

And now we're movin' on

I feel it comin' on
And now we're movin' on

So keep livin' on

Waiting on today to tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today to tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

Waiting on today to tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today to tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away




I And Identify

Long suffer, patient, kind
Never proud, no jealousy, unselfish
No angry, no memory wrong
Separate my wicked ways

Reach for the sky
Don't let it get away
I and Identify
This is what love is

Gentle, purified
Stay tune, protection
Always trusting, continue hoping
Conqueror, never fails

Reach for the sky
Don't let it get away
I and Identify
This is what love is




Asthma

Breath
Suffocation within
Because of what you're saying
To understand is to begin again
To believe is to live again

I tried living my life through your eyes
Smother me with your ways
To death, no breath
You're choking with little faith i have left
In time i find the truth lies inside

Breath
Suffocation within
Because of what you're saying
To understand is to begin again
To believe is to live again

I would die to breath again
I would die to breath again
I would die to breath again
I would die to breath again




Eternal

(Instrumental)




Sleeping Awake

Reveal to me, the mystery
Can you tell me what it means?
Explain, these motions and metaphors
Unlock these secrets in me
Describe the vision the meaning is missing
Oh, anybody listening?
Define, the riddles of my mind
Nothing is really what it seems

Dreaming of Zion awake
Sleeping awake
Dreaming of Zion awake
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel what I feel?
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel like I feel?
Can't stop sleeping

Can you, see it, the writing?
Can you tell me what it means?
Translate, the symbol's enigma
Expressions keep questioning me
The message is switched
And the meaning is missing
Oh, anybody listening?
Prophecy and servants take the signs
Nothing is really what it seems

Dreaming of Zion awake
Sleeping awake
Dreaming of Zion awake
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel like I feel?
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel what I feel?
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see, what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel like I feel?
And can you dream like I dream?

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel like I feel?
Do you dream like I dream?

Can anybody see me?!
Can anybody hear me?!
Can anybody feel me?!
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE?!?!

Dreaming of Zion awake
Sleeping awake
Dreaming of Zion awake
Can't stop sleeping awake

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel what I feel?
Can't stop sleeping awake?

Do you see what I see?
Can you hear what I hear?
Do you feel like I feel
Can't stop sleeping awake

CAN ANYBODY SEE ME?!
CAN ANYBODY HEAR ME?!
CAN ANYBODY FEEL ME?!
IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?!?!
