You may call this sedition but listen The war of the mind is still raging in these times To tear down the walls of division Together we stand to divert destruction Reminiscing, pondering, and wondering Realize it’s high time for us to stop sleeping The bigga heads in control while my people are fading We need a vision refocused so that the fire keeps blazing We shall not falter nor resign Be like water my friend The force of the sublime Reminiscing, pondering, and wondering Realize it’s high time for us to stop sleeping The bigga heads in control while my people are fading We need a vision refocused so that the fire keeps blazing This is the mission to reveal the vision Looking forward and backward to know our position Believe in the good of the souls in formation The meek and righteous are now ever risen Reminiscing, pondering, and wondering Realize it’s high time for us to stop sleeping The bigga heads in control while my people are fading We need a vision refocused so that the fire keeps blazing

It’s the smell of cinnamon Or a storm coming Cool current running down my spine Soft skin recollections got my head spinning She’s a kitten that won’t be left behind This is gonna be the Price You Pay, Price You Pay, Price You Pay This is gonna be the Price You Pay Over you… Forget sleep my face is twitching of its own volition The scent of her neck is cause of my condition I’ve been sleeping rough in the luxury of her pillow I’m a basket case, won’t you give a slap to a poor fellow This is gonna be the Price You Pay, Price You Pay, Price You Pay This is gonna be the Price You Pay Over you… Grey matter breaking up, grey matter breaking up Grey matter breaking up over you… This is gonna be the Price You Pay, Price You Pay, Price You Pay This is gonna be the Price You Pay Over you…

Life’s too short to not get what you want You’re no slave to the system, you’re a child of God Seek and you’ll find all the answers you need You’re ever nearer When the vision comes to light Never a gain without a sacrifice There lies the secret of your inner fight There’s never a victory without a compromise You better find out what it is That brings you closer to your bliss You better find out just what you need If you really want to be free You know it deep in your heart You can’t hide it from yourself You know yourself way too well Time is precious, gonna spend mine with you You are a mirror to show me the truth Without each other life is a bust So let’s get together We’re all sick of the politricks The weight of the world’s enough to make you sick If there’s a way to make some sense of this Show me the light, I’ll stare into it You better find out what it is That brings you closer to your bliss You better find out just what you need If you really want to be free You know it deep in your heart You can’t hide it from yourself You know yourself way too well

Endlessly… oh Endlessly Let the waters wash over me If I’m the land, then you are the sea Carry me into your deep I’ll be proving my worth and my salt to you each day And I’ll be proving my love and singing my psalms of praise To believe in eternity Takes a lot of faith you see Cuz what can be done can be undone This is how the Universe will have its fun I’ll be proving my worth and my salt to you each day And I’ll be proving my love and singing my psalms of praise To catch a moment of bliss Let it come back to this To catch a moment of bliss I’ll be proving my worth and my salt to you each day And I’ll be proving my love and singing my psalms of praise

The dawn is like a whisper A whisper at the window With a message from the horizon I feel my body let go into your arms Into your arms, into your arms I’m so deep in your love I want to be just like the Sun And kiss your face each morning I have a lot of love for everyone But you always get yours first darling You always get yours first Always get yours first I’m so deep in your love I love you are a seeker of the Truth And all the while I’m seeking for mine too Just the very thought of you Inspires me to muse upon my too Knowledge of self is the greatest wealth You’re so very good for my health So good for my health I’m so deep in your love Tell me if it’s ever forgotten The light of this morning As we lay on this mountain Tell me if it’s ever forgotten The light of this morning As we lay on this mountain Tell me, Tell me baby, Tell me How life will guide us onward You & I Once in a lifetime… Life will guide us onward I’m so deep in your love

There are no battles that are lost Only battles not yet won And the reason we fight Is not to defeat but to heal Both sides, both sides Standing firm, swaying at the roots With fortitude Gather round, Stand your ground We are the Gathering Storm Coming to wash away, wash away! The warning signs been ringing quite A combat my tears for the coming generations Inheriting sickness and fear But love is resilience Is our abundance Resilience is our Abundance Abundance Gather round, Stand your ground We are the Gathering Storm Coming to wash away, wash away! Caleb Hart (Feature) Wash away, wash away now We come to wash away the pain Let the music hit ya, wah We let the l-l-l-love of music always take control So watch as we rock, and watch as we a roll Hit ya like ra-ta-ta-ta-tat When we get upon the stage people wan fi ask yah Buckman Coe and Caleb Hart are gonna tell ya humbly In front of dem, we wash away the pain again Gather round, Stand your ground We are the Gathering Storm Coming to wash away, wash away!

In life we get a chance to partake in some dreams So sweet and fleeting though they may be It may be hard to let go once you awake from your sleep But you only lose the plot when you hold on too tightly So, I’m forever grateful, forever great, forever full That’s how it must be No matter how distant the Sun may shine On the memories that were yours and mine Let me tell you right now that Forever you’ll be divine in my eyes Forever you’ll be divine in my eyes I can’t forget you babe Our time by the water The thumping soundsystem Drifting down the beach The cool gentle water Lapping at our feet I think my heart skipped a beat Oh that look in your eyes I’ll be living my life, You’ll be living yours Let’s see how the time goes And I don’t know but I suppose we’ll have to see How the trade winds blow, Whether it’ll bring me back to your shores Or bring you to mine But somehow I’m fine To let that be our time in the moonlight Let that be our time in the moonlight I can’t forget you babe Our time by the water The thumping soundsystem Drifting down the beach The cool gentle water Lapping at our feet I think my heart skipped a beat Oh that look in your eyes Erica Dee’s verse And while I’m living my own life, You still dance into my mind And if I could go back to those days I wish I was old enough and knew what to say Remember the way you smiled when we played Before your ma and your pa took you away I wonder sometimes if you pass me by Or even if we hang out at the same cafe For now I’ll just keep on dreaming And wandering the beach I hope you see me I can’t forget you babe Our time by the water The thumping soundsystem Drifting down the beach The cool gentle water Lapping at our feet I think my heart skipped a beat Oh that look in your eyes

We both know we bring our histories with us And I’m prepared to tell you what you need to breathe easy Let me say, not all is what it seems More important is that we mend our broken dreams Let us see Eye to Eye… It’s so easy to let our feelings go untended And also to let them just explode But I can take a little bit of tension And I will wrestle if that’s what you need... To see Eye to Eye Let us see Eye to Eye… Let it go, Let it go, Let it go baby Let it go, Let it go, Let it go Life ain’t so hard when we vibe together Let us see Eye to Eye…

Why don’t you clear your day Let’s do nothing but eat and make love Cuz life’s too short To not use all your sick days Call in and say you’re ‘coming down with something’ You don’t have to tell them that ‘something’ is me I really want to thank you girl For your kindness and your curvatures I know I’m making overtures I want to thank you in the best way I know how I really want to show you why The world shines brighter through your eyes I don’t want to waste no time I want to thank you in the best way I know how So don’t ya pull away Saying you got a busy busy day Cuz love is work And we gots to do some overtime Girl you won’t know what you’re missing I’ve got a fever and that fever’s for you I really want to thank you girl For your kindness and your curvatures I know I’m making overtures I want to thank you in the best way I know how I really want to show you why The world shines brighter through your eyes I don’t want to waste no time I want to thank you in the best way I know how I want you to know how much I love your skin I’ll draw a hot bath for us to begin Kiss your sweet face as I wash your hair Woman I’ll treat ya like the goddess you are… I really want to thank you girl….

11th Hour 03:07
Tell me why Do we do the things we do Is it fate guiding you through the maze called life Is there a choice in the matter Are we living out some master plan Is redemption in the cards at the 11th Hour Do you wonder just why This world is so full of trouble and strife We have inherited this world in its disarray And you might tell yourself that you are not enslaved But you know, as I do, can only guess at what is true This is a half truth world we’ve been living through the schisms Back into the fire for the next baptism Raise my hands with those who dare So Babylon you best beware Babylon you best beware Do you wonder just why This world is so full of trouble and strife
