DON'T BOTHER ME (c) Words & Music by Gravel E J Gray

A track about regional unity. Mutual respect for neighbours. Creating conditions for bright tomorrows

FOR THE CHILDREN (c) Words & Music by Gravel E J Gray)

You think you're holding all the aces, cos you're big and strong; but if you look into my eyes you'll see I'll never bow down.

I'LL INTRODUCE YOU TO KARMA

Mama  said that daddy don't buy roses no more.......
Daddy said that mama took his picture from the wall..., .
Their lawyers are out for the kill and the bills mount up.
They're beating round the bush telling baby, Shush.
Baby's head is spinning  cos he doesn't understand.
Little baby's growing and he's showing no respect.
He's scaring other children to death.
They share no roses and sleep in separate beds


THEY SHARE NO ROSES (Share No Bed)(c) Words & Music by Gravel E J Gray

Irrespective of our lifestyle, many  of us seek something more than just physical contentment. We yearn for something deeper.  Something Spiritual. We know about good vs bad. Ying and Yang. We strive for balance in our lives. 

HALLELUJAH!(I Thank You Lord)

Pitter patter raindrops
The sun has gone away
We can't go out and play play
Play play play

Plip plop Plip plop
Pitter Patter Raindrops

Pitter Patter Raindrops

The ducks are having fun fun

A rainbow starts to form
I can see the sun sun
Sun sun sun

Shine your light 
Sun shine so bright

TELL DEM MAMA(c) 2019 words & music by Gravel E J Gray

Each and everyone deserves a piece of the action
They're  'round a table making plans
To g'ie we licks in we bam-bam.

Our time to reason comes 'round
They say that it's out of season.
And when we bang on we drums
They say that we're courting treason.

No no no mama no ( tell dem tell dem)
Tell dem they just can't move so.
No no no mama no ( tell dem tell dem)
Tell dem they just can't move so. Oh

Tell dem mama ( tell dem not to do it again)
Tell dem mama ( the longest rope has an end )
Tell dem mama ( one day they might just need a friend)
Tell dem mama.

Put your ears against the wall
Your restless heart will start pounding.
Secrets they wouldn't share at all
Rumours of wars so astounding.

And now the dark moon's on the rise
Wolves dressed like sheep start a-prowling.
They plan to cut you down to size.
Stay in your place keep on toiling.


You're not my master
I've seen the light.
The lion was sleeping but not tonight
You had so many chances 
But you didn't do what was right
Your Babylon is falling
We've got you in our sights

Tell Dem Mama

# Tell Dem Mama

I remember going my own way
Unprepared for judgement day 
Jesus came and he took me in
Taught me how I should deal with sin

Look at me now 
Look at me now


I'm a servant of the Lord 
And I just want to meet my God
Oh yeah
