If you know what your life is worth, you will look for yours on earth.
I woke up this morning, smiled at the rising sun.
Your life is worth much more than gold.
Music is the only thing that doesn't hurt when it hits you.
We JAH people can make it work.
A hungry mob is an angry mob.
Every day the bucket a-go a well, one day the bottom a-go drop out.
All those governments and this and that, these people that say they're here to help, why them say you cannot smoke the herb? Herb... herb is a plant, you know? And when me check it, me can't find no reason. All them say is, 'it make you rebel'. Against what?
The more you accept herb, the more you accept Rastafari.
In the abundance of water a fool is thirsty. Rat Race, from the album Rastaman Vibration When one door is closed, many more is open. Coming in from the Cold, from the album Confrontation It is better to live on the house top than to live in a house full of confusion.
The road to life is rocky, and you may stumble too. So while you point your fingers, someone else is judging you.
I've been here before and will come again, but I'm not going this trip through.
