TAKE A LOOK

here's a tune expressing a bit of frustration with the nanny state - enjoy!
ft. Alex Brander on congas

the poor man got to try and explain how he lose while the rich man gain
yah never hear this poor man complain all while the rich man sit upon his private plane
don't wanna hear the banker explain how to save me from my debts and pains
so take your dollars and get back on your plane - i've got love, thats what keeps me sane

don't need my government to keep me fed
don't need the government to make my bed
i was raised in a righteous way, won't be a part of this power play

and now your money turned all credit and the printing press, it knows no limit
they say there's no way to run out of it, but wee all know that they're full of shit
and our leaders, i judge them so unfit because the big bankers they did acquit 
even those who had the guts to admit, I say them should be thrown in the deepest pit

don't need the government to keep me fed
don't need the government to make my bed
I was raised in a righteous way, won't be a part of this power play

and when the time comes - the people stand up
and when the time comes - we fill our cups 
and when the time comes - to refresh the tree
we gotta take back our liberty

so watcha gonna do, vote the out of office or send them letters to cease and desist
you gotta be strong because they will persist, gotta be smart because they will insist 
that they don't mean harm so unclench your fist
don't you know the reason they even exist
and when the time comes, they wont be missed - because the people are right to be pissed

don't need the government to keep me fed
don't need the government to make my bed
I was raised in a righteous way, won't be a part of this power play

Girl From The North

Forward (ft. Fikir Amlak)

Original music from Dhamma Lion
All instruments played by Nate Ashton

I got my back to the ground and my face to the sun
it's so good to be alive, I hope I never will be done
enjoying all the little things life throws my way
enjoying all the moments that make up my day
can't live in the past just let it pass and you will know
plant the seed of the present just sit back and watch it grow
enjoying all the little things life throws your way
enjoying all those moments that make up your day

step one foot in the river, you'll never step that way again
just one foot int he river, different than you know it's ever been

I wake every day with a smile on my face
got no worries in my heart because I know I can replace
all the negativity that people throw my way
with positivity right from my heart today
I'm never gonna let the past bring me down
no matter what I do, I know that I will never frown
from all the negativity they throw my way
got positivity right from my heart today

step one foot in the river, you'll never step that way again
just one foot in the river, different than you know it's ever been

LYRICS

All together we keep reaching out
We seek energy
All the colors fill my vision up
In a different way
It's the taste we make it sweeter now, so I don't wanna wait
And everything will be better now
In a new fashion that we making
Here we stand connected you a part of me
The crew get in the right mood
Come a dancehall don't bring your army
Only the best beside you
Dances in old fashioned ways
Oh yeah
Water pumping when the peaceful
Lovers rocking people come through

Play new fashion dub plate
Hear they want encore
Bad boy they can't test this weight
Allow no back biter
Is it here the beginning?
New fashion to follow
Sweet them sing
Everyone love

Don't seek a myth to find holy things
It's Closer than you believe
Don't shut away it makes lonely who can't feel
Only the bitter falling
Ooh at the dawning we forget our envy- happy
Soon we begin disarming, it's the bass what they need
We don't now favor no farce in our fashion- strictly yard
Build no hate up wicked must have a  warning- to regard everybody
 a savior for all who feel the passion regard everybody
Only then your body can know
What is real

One proper bass provide for the
Tune, hotter pace and they tune in
Who satta Grace will Find only
And see that jah jah control it
A true operator make the crowd move
And if you stutter then you really don't know
Pick up the radical fashion haul and pull
Protect them as they call on we
Pray everybody gonna rise
When they hear the bassline
And it's right on time
So show your loving when you hear the dubwise
In the new style
