Damian Marley Lyrics
Is It Worth It? (Gunman World) lyrics - Damian Marley
Two sides to a coin
The one must chose which side they join
You know?
Brotherman
Yeah
And meanwhile one man's meal
Is another man's poison
Mankind will do what they must to survive
Innit
Hear me now
In a gunman world
Any night him clock in at work
Marrow splatter, the toolbox pull
The magazine inna the two Glock full
And he's watching as the days go by
And he's counting as his peers all die
Sleeping with the rifle 'cross his chest
So he never gets a good night's rest
And then he's cranky in the morning times
And more victims have to lose their lives
The community a twist and twirl
Sing that they wasn't in a gunman world
In a gunman life
He might not come home from work one night
So every minute matter
Ignores advice
From his weeping baby mother and child
That he won't win every game he plays
So she know he'll meet his end one day
Some juvenile will have to earn his stripe
And have to take another gunman's life
What if a backstabber names his price?
And how ironic if him dead from knife
The 'mount of bullet weh him put 'pon boy
Job description: kill and destroy
Now tell me is it worth it all?
If one Don rise then a next must fall
Tell me is it worth it all?
Those sleepless nights on patrol roll call
Tell me is it worth it all?
One child smile while a next one bawl
Tell me is it worth it?
Is it worth it?
Is it worth it all?
Well, in a gunman world
Life is so stressful
Back to school time come
'Cause when a gunman work
If he is successful
And the job is well done
Then there will be an unsolved crime
With no one to fill out all blank line
John Public haffi hear and deaf
Informer get a kuff, kaff, kweff
Does he get nervous just like you and I?
Watching out if the police pass by
'Cause any day you hear a gunman fail
Then it's either dead house or jail
What will it cost to make a gunman rich?
How many lives before a gunman switch?
The truth me want the youth them stop ignore
Say the majority of gunman poor, oya, oh
'Cause tell me is it worth it all?
If one don rise then a next one fall
Tell me is it worth it all?
Those sleepless nights on patrol roll call
Tell me is it worth it all?
One child smile while a next one bawl
Tell me is it worth it?
Is it worth it?
Is it worth it all?
And when a gunman makes choice
I wonder what goes through a gunman's mind
And does a gunman think twice?
Before him takes another someone's life?
I wonder what it is a gunman say
To the Father when a gunman pray
Does he kiss his kids to bed at night?
Making sure the blanket tucked just right?
Nothing no scary like a gunman voice
When people beg a gunman think twice
And him say, "No"
What coulda scary like a gunman voice?
When people beg a gunman think twice
And him say, "No"
Can you tell me is it worth it all?
If one don rise then a next must fall
Tell me is it worth it all?
Those sleepless nights on patrol roll call
Tell me is it worth it all?
Don child smile while a next one bawl
Tell me is it worth it?
Is it worth it?
Is it worth it all?
Life Is A Circle lyrics - Damian Marley
Hhm...
Always with us now
It's always with me ya'll
God bless us all each and every one of us
Is always with us now
So I pray
Life is a circle
It goes round and round
Mine's not a circus
And I'm not your clown
Some people with us
Some wear their frown
Still I know my purpose
Is to share what we've found
Some people insist
To wear others down
But all will bare witness
Unto who wears the crown
Good God
Good Good God
Is always with us now
Always with I now
Would never us down
Would never let I down
Is always with us now
Is always with I now
Never us down
Never let I down
O time has no master
We're all is suspense
Jah don't run no border
No wall
Nor no fence
So crime and disaster
Is all in pretense
Man too out of order
Too much ill intent
O
O when will the starters
Make way for the bench, hm
And when will the Martyrs
Get Justice for their Flesh
Good God
Good Good God
Is always with us now
Always with I now
Is always with me ya
Always with I ya
Would never me down
Has never let I down
Is always with us ya
Is always with I now
Good God
Good Good God
Is always with us now
Always with I now
Is always with me ya
Always with I ya
Would never me down
Has never let I down
Is always with us ya
Is always with I now

Reach Home Safe lyrics - Damian Marley
I'm so responsible

RUN (Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley Version) lyrics - Killer Mike & Damian Marley
Now greetings to the world
Live by the King of Zion, I and I, but you know
Sounds brought to you courtesy of the man called Killer Mike
Alongside yours truly, Big Gong Zilla
Yes rude bwoy!
Run like the Spirited folks
Run like you got Holy Ghost
Run like you know that God love you the most
Run me my flowers. While living at dinner, just run me my toast
I used to run wit a gun
Mommy would pray night and day for her devilish son
She would say, "Lucifer's using your women and money
And drugs and you too blind to see."
And I'd retort, "Mommy, and now we got money
Have pills in our tummy, not just rice and peas."
And I told her, "Mama, the trap is abundant
And really it feel like a blessing to me."
She looked at me spiteful and said to me
"Michael, don't perish. For greed is the Devil's disease."
God don't like ugly, I ain't one to judge
Whole, whole lotta gold Cubans, wear a ton
Say I kept it solid, when it's all said and done
All I know is keep going. Run, better run
Mama told me never fold. Run, better run
Like Jenny told Forrest Gump. Run, better run
The race for freedom ain't won. Run, better run
Had to make it out the red clay. Run, better run
Some run of the mill MC's
Weh no bad like Run DMC
And cyaa kill a mic like Killer Mike
Killer Mike, them can't run next to me
Real revolution, every'dy's an opinionphile
Run off your mouth and see
Decipher the truth from the lies
Cause we still advise run back the maths and pree
Politician run like thief
Thief haffi run from police
Blood still a run like water
Cause gangsta no run from beef
But water will run you a fee
Even though water should be free
Still there is no running water pipeline
In enough third world country
Yet them run them Ponzi scheme
And them run all under the sea
Meanwhile be running risk and run red light
To feed me family
And if money run like joke
"Nobody could know rich like we"
Run we own prep school and own college
And university
Cause we're running to be free
So whether long distance or sprinting, nobody can run fast like we
Everybody done know the runnings, seh we run things
And memba things nuh run we
Everybody done know the runnings, we don't run alone
Cause we run with the Almighty!
God don't like ugly, I ain't one to judge
Whole, whole lotta gold Cubans, wear a ton
Say I kept it solid, when it's all said and done
All I know is keep going. Run, better run
Mama told me never fold. Run, better run
Like Jenny told Forrest Gump. Run, better run
The race for freedom ain't won. Run, better run
Had to make it out the red clay. Run, better run
Lordy, you know
How I stay high, but I'm low
I do not know where to go
Calling on you
I do not know what to do
How do I get back to you?
I got a story of glory to tell
I was like Jonah in belly of whale
God had to get me and sick me in
Dirtiest, filthy, and grimiest, slimiest jail
I had to pray on bent knee and repent
Lost every dollar, but got me some sense
Woke up cold sweating, I'm shaking at night
Woke up and realized that Mama was right
I had to run from the wrong to the right
I had to run to the sun and the light
For if I should perish, my kids would have nothing inherited
And that'd be the Devil's delight
See I want the wisdom of Solomon, kingdom of David
My bloodline, the birthplace of Christ
God don't like ugly, I ain't one to judge
Whole, whole lotta gold Cubans, wear a ton
Say I kept it solid, when it's all said and done
All I know is keep going. Run, better run
Mama told me never fold. Run, better run
Like Jenny told Forrest Gump. Run, better run
The race for freedom ain't won. Run, better run
Had to make it out the red clay. Run, better run
Bitter Blood lyrics - Damian Marley
Bitter blood
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
Every elder me see inna the mirror
All a dem blood run through me like river
My bloodline full a strength and vigour
Born to rebel, go figure
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood weh murder mosquito
Poison vampire, collapse dem liver
Dark like coffee and strong like liquor
Ten percent indica
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood carry bruises, my blood carry scars
My blood carry victory, my blood fought wars
My blood carry history, that goes back so far
Check out the chemistry, my blood full a star
Miserable, we fight and vicor
Molt thick, but fi my blood thicker
Royal blood come [?]
Man, me couldn't feel sicker
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
This one bag a smile, pretty close and bitter
Like all is well and every man richer
School girls still a use outdoor...
And a live 'mongst litter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood full a saviour, my blood full a killer
With the hands of a healer, that also pull a trigger
My blood been staining, every floor it spill on
My blood full a hero, my blood full a villain
My blood will loathe him
And blood up 'pon the cherry picker
Weh a tek off the likkle girls nickels
Mek dem light stop flicker
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
I'm blood related to kings and queens
Is in all our DNA and genes
Now some of us can't find the ways and means
Nah mean
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood shoot a sheriff, uplift Africa
Spread one love with a song and a guitar
Mek crazy bald heads start run quicker
Clear all perimeter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
My blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter, my blood bitter
Every elder me see inna the mirror
All a dem blood run through me like river

Medication (Remix) lyrics - Damian Marley (feat. Stephen Marley, Wiz Khalifa & Ty Dolla $ign)
[Stephen Marley:]
Medication - your medication makes me high
Just be patient - I'm like a patient trying to find
Levitation - Run your fingers down my spine
Elevation - your medication makes me high, yeah
[Ty Dolla $ign:]
I fell in love with the sativa
Where you been, nice to meet ya
Obsessed with your features
You got all different flavours
You got that loudly speakers
The best friend Keisha
Know how to knock em out they sneakers
Like that Louis XIII but she nothing like ex though
She remind of Gelato
Got me drinking out the bottle
She got me swerving on this shawty
Her name was Indica
I tried to tell I was sorry
She said that's the end of us
But I can't help but keep on rolling up
Medication keep me going up
Medication come on breathe with us
No one in relation keep the windows up

Medication - your medication makes me high

Chalice it a bubble like we deh a Ray Town
Di way yuh sup'n nuff it haffi way by pound
Inna fields of marijuana that is my playground
I love you Mary Jane!
You're the prettiest of flowers, girl me can't complain
When I'm with you I feel so high I rise above the rain
And you no do people damage, like that bitch cocaine, no
And leave them lonely, feeling only pain
Cause your DNA is of the highest strain
Your effect is so potent, it's so insane
You so gummy and sticky like a plasticine
When me grind out your body, only stems remain
And to love you is so risky, I might get detained
You always keep me flying on the highest plane
And anybody know, will always proclaim

The only thing I think of when I need to unwind
See I've been going crazy 'cause you've been on my mind
And something is wrong but to me it's not a crime
You can take me places, just look at their faces
Plus you're so good, they don't know your taste is
Dealing with you, complex
Nothing but you, basic
You the real deal, I can never fake it
I fell in love with the indica
Ever since I was young I've been into ya

Intro lyrics - Damian Marley
I pray thee
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine of such vain things?
False kings of the earth hath set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together
Against the Lord God Jah Rastafari and against his anointed, saying
Now come let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh
The Lord God Jah Rastafari shall have them in derision
But then shall he speak unto them in his wrath
And vex with them in his sore displeasure
Cah I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion
I will now declare the decree
The Lord God Jah Rastafari hath said unto I and I and I
That thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee
Now ask of I and I and I, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance
And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession
Jah, shalt break them with a rod of iron
Jah, shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel, as I would say
So be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, judges of the earth
Serve the Lord God Jah Rastafari with fear, and rejoice with trembling
'Cause I and I the Son, lest he be angry
But purge from his ways, when his wrath is kindled but a little
And so blessed be all, blessed be everyone, as I would say
Blessed be everyone, as I would tell you
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine of such vain things?
False kings of the earth hath set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together
Against the Lord God Jah Rastafari and against his anointed, saying
Now come let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh
The Lord God Jah Rastafari shall have them in derision
But then shall he speak unto them in his wrath
And vex with them in his sore displeasure
Cah I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion
I will now declare the decree
The Lord God Jah Rastafari hath said unto I and I and I
That thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee
Now ask of I and I and I, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance
And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession
Jah, shalt break them with a rod of iron
Jah, shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel, as I would say
So be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, judges of the earth
Serve the Lord God Jah Rastafari with fear, and rejoice with trembling
'Cause I and I the Son, lest he be angry
But purge from his ways, when his wrath is kindled but a little
And so blessed be all, blessed be everyone, as I would say
Blessed be everyone, as I would tell you
Here We Go lyrics - Damian Marley
Here we go
My big ego is gonna get me in trouble
Trying to play hero
My jeans can't tight like Michael Phelps speedo
We no play follow fashion, when we lead out
Now looky here, my big ideas
Gonna get me in trouble now amongst my peers
But have no fear, no bother cry tears
You're just miles ahead when I'm ahead light years
(Here.. here I come again)
The originally, run fi the grand finally
(Have no fear.. for it is only I)
I do it regularly, through every hill and valley
(I'm here to teach you only truth)
It's Mister Warm and Easy
Somebody please believe me
(For the things you do, Jah is watching you)
Man a wah do some a likkle bomboclaated
Weh feel like them because dem album charted
Well all bad card will be disregarded
No punk cyaan finish weh what Bob Marley started
Gong to the Zilla, I'm the Don Die-Hearted
Anywhere me go, dem roll out red carpet
Some man a buy car and nah no house fi park it
Nah unify dem selfish like market
Dem sell out dem souls just to be rewarded
Bleach out dem skin, dem favour dead to rahtid
Soul too corrupt and dem blemish and faulted
Real Rastaman we cannot be outsmarted
Gong's not the one fi a bwoy take chance with
Ancient Nazareth weh make the Red Sea parted
Provide the harvest, in drought and shortage
With Jah by my side I've got all advantage
(Here.. here I come again)
Gong.. the originally, run fi the grand finally
(Have no fear.. for it is only I)
I do it regularly, through every hill and valley
(I'm here to teach you only truth)
It's Mister Warm and Easy
Somebody please believe me
(For the things you do, Jah is watching you)
So buy your tickets to the show, get there early get a seat
The real gang is in the house, everything has counterfeit
If I have not been around, it's a part of my mistake
I've been busy so to speak, I've been winning on the street
I've been feeling like a Wednesday, surrounded by the week
This wrong alone can't win, [?] justice weh we seek
So [?] some DJ cah dem see me [?]
Dem inna the [?] man make a beat
And if you buy the bullshit, then don't lose your recite
Them bound fi [?] me a go lowe dem, make you seet
Dem sow weh dem a reap, dem think say Jah no seet
When the stage show full a demon and the club dem full a freak
And the dancehall full a pagans and dance like dem a Greek
Dem [?] reek, dem pop down and a week
Dem always overdweet, but turn the other cheek
The earth is for the meek
(Here.. here I come again)
Gong.. the originally, run fi the grand finally
(Have no fear.. for it is only I)
I do it regularly, through every hill and valley
(I'm here to teach you only truth)
It's Mister Warm and Easy
Somebody please believe me
(For the things you do, Jah is watching you)
Me do a thousand video shooting, ten thousand chariot
Hundred thousand photo shoot and million radio drop
Me deejay till me [?]
You think a silver spoon [?] drop inna me lap
Me sign a billion autograph, up to now the tour no stop
Trade privacy for privilege, it balance when it swap
Tony Rebel say a reggae put Jamaica 'pon the map
Who am I to disagree when I've been reaping up the crop
My first release was '93, when dem a feed pon Similac
First Grammy at 23, tell me which one a dem do that
Another tour at 27, add it up and do the maths
The weight weh dem a carry that no heavy like me locks
I'm a veteran, the young guest to be exact
Ghetto people love me bad, I'm guessing opposites attract
Uptown me born and broke, Stony Hill to mark the spot
Big Gong to the Zilla and the return of the mac
My big ego is gonna get me in trouble
Trying to play hero
My jeans can't tight like Michael Phelps speedo
We no play follow fashion, when we lead out
Now looky here, my big ideas
Gonna get me in trouble now amongst my peers
But have no fear, no bother cry tears
You're just miles ahead when I'm ahead light years
(Here.. here I come again)
The originally, run fi the grand finally
(Have no fear.. for it is only I)
I do it regularly, through every hill and valley
(I'm here to teach you only truth)

Nail Pon Cross lyrics - Damian Marley
Yeah
World must understand
Yo, a man is just a man
Don't you judge him for his ways and flaws, no
Speak of love tomorrow
You'll be doing good, my brother
You're working for the greatest cause
He without sin may he throw the first stone
And not even a pebble can cast, no
Pharisees and Scribes crucified the Son of God
Be careful who you nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Things is getting rougher
And some can't find no supper
Much less a good breakfast, no
What a lucky thing
Say Rasta youth nuh waan go gut
Say Natty Dreadlocks gotta hold steadfast
Grudges are forbidden
Forgive to be forgiven
When a'nedda man trespass, woi
Heckle vex with Jeckle
And the pot a cuss the kettle
Yo, be careful who you nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Today might be for you
But Jah might give me tomorrow
So don't count you're eggs too fast
You might talk too soon
Then yuh pride haffi swallow
Come down off your big high horse
Some preaching religion
When inside dem hollow
And a bare Judgement them pass, woi
And a gwaan like dem a God
When that's a hard act to follow
Be careful who you nail 'pon cross
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Don't throw no word
I beg yuh don't throw no stone
If yuh living in a house of glass
Do unto others as you do to your own
You never know when you might cross path
Have a look within 'cause another ones win
That should not be your loss
If the tables spin you a laugh up an' a grin
Be careful who you nail 'pon cross
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who you nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cra-wa-wa-woss
Be careful who unnu nail 'pon cross

R.O.A.R. lyrics - Damian Marley
Big up the lion dem weh roar fi a cause
Defend your community at all cost
Never yet run, stand your ground to the last
Real outlaw, people love we, because
No old woman purse can't get grab of
No juvenile 'pon the road after dark
No visitors can get rob inna the park
Else bwoy will finish before dem start
No shotta can gi' no juvenile gun
No stinginess when the site money run
No lickkle shop can get bruk inna the slum
All who perpetrator haffi pack up and run
No man do more dem share of kegs
One voice a talk just like Simeon says
No man no thief when the Ackee Tree bear
It mek war bruk out and it happen each year
No man no frowns when a man a mek food
Kings at the road, yes a dem a get rude
No shot no buss when a man a keep treat
No man no disturb the children peace
No car no bruk when you hear dancehall keep
The last man weh try, burn up like rizzla sheet
Dem hear say me soon come, tell dem me reach
No man no talk when the general speak, 'cause
Me and unno...
Dem go rob the chiney man and that a disrespect
And a gwaan like dem a don an' still a money nah mek
And a gwaan like dem a captain a the damn ship wreck
Soon the nuff a dem a suffer damn twist neck
Tek it, mek an example, so the thing set
All violators know what come next
Misbehaving, trouble meking, yo, we won't accept
Certain bwoy fi disappear 'pon a magic carpet
All, nuisance get weh dem fi get
People live peaceful, no need to fret, 'cause
A we a guard dem out a street
Late at night when dem a sleep
Kids in bed and counting sheep
And when they wake up inna the morning, they'll living sweet
Enterprise operation, ruff up well neat
Back to business, everything on beat
No man to more than dem share of greens
No man no frowns when no fish nah steam
No man no frowns when the pot waan clean
No man no drink out the don spurline
No man go road weh the big man said
No man no greedy a nah bruk bread
No man no go 'round the royal laws
All disloyal, get nail 'pon cross
Me and unno...
A we a guard dem out a street
Late at night when dem a sleep
A we a guard dem out a street
Late at night when dem a sleep
A we a guard dem out a street
Late at night when dem a sleep
A we a guard dem out a street
