They don't want you to know Marijuana
Ites up and be Free
Jah so Let it be
Herb smoke keep i sane, take my pain
Stop migraine, so much i gain, so why blame?
I'm saying Jah might bring the right strain
To my brain fi chop lightning like I-Wayne
Cause man deh ya pon the Lava Ground
And if u soft like a guava u can't come round
This part of Town, I tell unuh the thought alone
A could a Sparta it falter down
REVIVAL Hallelujah it start up now
Reprisal fi the luu Jah it watered down, Naa Pardon none
What deh in a mi garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song
This is not Marijuana music
Just a Message from the ones that use it
Don't abuse it cause a mind that's fertile
Brings forth something that's worthwhile
Know your worth child
Cause no officer alive coulda look in a ma eyes
And see what i prophesy
My mind it forever occupies, thoughts of.........
Hold ma talk cause spies amongst us
If trouble did a trouble me, well that mi chalice woulda bubbly
drop in a one load then double it
What deh in a me garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song
Listen up, the truth is to be told
Open your eyes there is beauty to behold
What is the new if u consider the old
Why gain the world and no consider your soul
What is the cloud if u understand the lining
Who is the king if u consider the LIneage
You know its H.I.M so no continue deny him
Is it freestyle if i consider the Line
Then configure the timing adjust to fit the rhyme scheme
With no trouble to my mind really?
Seal It
I say wah deh in a me garden strong
This is not a Marijuana Song
