Lyrics

I’m beginning to wonder about your intensions 
Too many instances of deception
Too many alibis and excuses 
Too many attempts to deny the abuses 
Too many reasons to complain
Too many losses too little gain
The very existence is a strain on the people

I know cause I am woman so I can see
That life don’t reside where there isn’t no harmony
And I sing cause I care and wouldn’t want anybody
That I love to be circumstanced out of existence

Yes I’m beginning to wonder about your attention 
where is it focusing in what direction
is your life force in execution 
forming opinions or finding solutions
declaring the victim, sharing the blame
representing the potential for change but only in name
then with taxation and oppression put a strain on the people

I speak what I know; Words are reserved for the truth
Not perfect but aware of the example I set for the youth
And I sing cause I care and wouldn’t want none of these sons and daughters
To go astray when I could have paved the way

Yes I’m beginning to tire of all these expenses
Borne by the people relegated to zinc fences
Keeping the resources out of their reach
Breeding frustration with the values you teach
In the media everyday then deny them a way to attain it
But force them to work and maintain it and not take a share
Then the police force the fear into the brains of the people

I know from experience that the system is flawed and unfair
So I live outside it as much as I possibly dare 
and I sing for justice in a time when the people 
may be too distracted to even care
my voice will still be there

The people have to work so hard while those with the power keep the plenty for themselves. Meaningless competition for scares resources in a material driven world. Our children have no example of integrity and industry and love. And so for these atrocities against humanity the perpetrators will have to pay.
I know from experience that the system is flawed and unfair
So I live outside it as much as I possibly dare 
and I sing for justice in a time when the people 
may be too distracted to even care
my voice will still be there

Jah9 - Intentions(New Name Album)

THE OFFICIAL version.
Dub plate by Adrian Sherwood, Album : compilation women reggae "Dub No Frontiers" on "On-U-Sound" Records.
حرب

إلى أن نرى الفكر الذي يضع عرقا كأعلى و آخر كأقلّ شأنا، 
أخيرا يُنبَذ و أبدا يُهجَر، في كلّ مكان حرب، أقول الحرب 

و إلى أن لا نرى مواطنا أوّل و آخرثاني في أية أمّة 
و إلى أن يصبح لون أيّ كان لا يزيد أهمّية عن لون العيون، 
أقول الحرب

إن حتّى حقوق الإنسان الأساسيّة تُكفَل بالتّساوي للجميع، 
بغضّ النّظر عن العرق، أقول الحرب

إلى أن نرى ذاك اليوم، حلم السّلام الدّائم، 
إنسان آبن العالم، و سيادة الأخلاق الدولية 
سيضل وهما خاطفا يُنَشد أبدا يُدرَك
الحرب ،أقول الحرب

و حتّى نرى الأنظمة الخسيسة المستبدّة بإخواننا 
في زمبابوي، في فلسطين، في العراق، 
لا إنسانيّة العبوديّة و قد أطيح بها و دُمِّرَت كلّيا، 
في كل مكان حرب، أقول الحرب

حرب في الشرق، حرب في الغرب، 
حرب في الشمال، حرب في الجنوب، 
حرب حرب، شائعات الحرب

و حتّى نرى ذاك اليوم، نحن العالم الثالث
سنحارب، لا من حياد، سنحارب، 
و نحن واثقن من النّصر، نصر الخير على الشرّ، 
واثقون من النّصر.

XANA ROMEO - RIGHTEOUS PATH

KINGSTON, JAMAICA - There is mounting anticipation for Jah9's debut album, New Name, slated for release later this year.  Now her fans will be rewarded for their patience with the smoothly produced title track by Rory "Stone Love" Gilligan.

'New Name' has an anthem quality, with Jah9's trademark clarity of voice, enunciation and solemnness of message all colliding in a milestone piece of music. If four and a half minutes could begin to capture the magnetism of Rastafari for this rising generation, 'New Name' would be it.

The song will be available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon and all major distribution sites.

[LYRICS]

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 
don't let them draw you out
maintain composure in spite of whats going on
speak the truth or hold your mouth

All this talking 
everyone seems to have an answer or a question to state
then when the tension's sparking
everyone is quite content to wait until the danger dissipates
because the eloquence and intellect mastered by the few
are really not indicative of what they can do
so rather than be guided by the words of someone else
seek the truth for yourself... and

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 
don't let them draw you out
maintain composure in spite of whats going on
speak the truth or hold your mouth

Egos flaring 
making it impossible for progress even when the way is clear
no self defeat preparing 
to take away your drive and leave you crippled barely walking 'cause of fear
because the violence and injustice perpetrated by the few
are highly indicative of what they will do to you
so join the competition for a coffin or a stripe 
or make your own way and choose life... by

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 
don't let them draw you out
maintain composure in spite of whats going on
speak the truth or hold your mouth 

See when the light is shining 
learn and overstand the way the cycles regulate the course of life
tune in to natural timing
forget about the obstacles focus on the goals you have in sight
because perspective makes the difference between tragedy
and things meant to provide you with an opportunity
yes consciousness will guide you and keep you in the right
just stay focused on the light... and

Keep holding on my brothers and sisters 
don't let them draw you out
maintain composure in spite of whats going on
speak the truth or hold your mouth
