''use yuh knowledge as yuh weapon '' KABOOOOM tuff Lyrics Iya

KINGSTON, JAMAICA – Tuesday, January 25, 2011 will be a memorable day for DubRock Reggae artiste, Protoje. After seven years of patience and devotion to his development as a singer and songwriter, his debut album, The Seven Year Itch will finally be available for purchase via major distribution channels such as iTunes and Amazon.
The 13-track album, produced by Don Corleon Records, begins with the title track that chronicles Protoje’s personal and musical journey, representing an informative re-introduction to his fans. It then proceeds into popular hits like ‘Dread,’ ‘Arguments,’ ‘Rasta Love’ (featuring Ky-Mani Marley) and ‘Roll.’

Following the album’s sole interlude, ‘In the Streets,’ a noticeable change takes place. The Saint Elizabeth, Jamaica native switches to a more serious tone with ‘JA,’ the last of the previously released singles. Immediately following that is underground crowd favourite, ‘Wrong Side Of The Law,’ which administers a high dose of dub instrumental and a captivating true story about encountering the Jamaican police. The album closes with two profound and introspective tracks; one features German sensation, Gentleman, and the other features rising songstress, Janine ‘Jah9? Cunningham.

From start to finish, The Seven Year Itch lays out the life, thus far, of a young man committed to his craft and his spiritual growth. The album cover, designed by Taj Francis, complements the music with a whirlpool of calendar dates bearing significance to Protoje’s career. One such date is December 4, 2009, representing the night he staged The Seven Year Wish to showcase some of his album material more than a year before its release.

This is for my music
Blessings for my music
It’s love for the music
Journey on my music

I’ve been doing this for seven years
I never make a dollar, never make a change I say
Naa go give up, naa go ever slow
You know say me a hold it down for seven more
I’ve been doing this for seven years
I never make a dollar, never make a change I say
Naa go give up, naa go ever slow
You know say me a hold it down for Evaflow

This is my seven year itch and then I’m coming home
My seven year itch and then I’m coming home
My seven year itch and then I’m coming home
My seven year itch, and now I’m coming home

Me mother send me go school for seventeen year
Me come out and turn DJ, it no seem fair
What you seeing here, this is a product
Of two college, one diploma, no degree
No know the meaning, out in this world and
Everything you learn inna the past 5 years, it naa go help you fi earn
nut’n
What’s the word cousin? You help your cousin
So every word that them heard me with worth sup’n
Every burden them hurl at me hurdle so flawless, dem naa listen
Mi a miss out pon lift up mi team
A watch Gong and Stephen Marley a live out the dream you know
But ‘Welcome to Jamrock’ did lift my feeling up
I listen it still, I listen it keen you know
Me decide say the music can meaningful
Take a look at my life and I clean it up
My herb customers calling me
But now my music demanding me
This is my Seven Year Itch

“Proto” to most, “Oje” to some
Call him “Diggy,” the only son, the sister young
Mommy legendary, ask around, ask fi a pound
And dem will tell you who did carry Macka a town
Ask Marshall, ask him, and if u get a glimpse a Sean Paul
Beg uunu ask him how it feel fi go three times plat
Then ask shaggy ‘cause him did move three times that
Me, no haffi feel like that
Just want retire to a seaside lot
Lef’ all the war and bring the peace right back
Never been in love until now, just just lost it wondering how
Mi woulda get through it, like customs with herb
And no mi no accustom to hurt but I got accustomed to her
And her, she accustom to me
Addicted to the thing weh addicted to she
Empress far and she calling me, but now my music demanding me
This is my Seven Year Itch

Got me, got me bad, mashing up my meds

No lie, I say the moment is right
I hoping you let me know tonight so that I
Can put in the overtime
I found someone for I, Fari, no lie
I say the moment is right
I hoping you let me know tonight so that I
Can put in the overtime, can put in the overtime

‘Cause she no impressed by the vanity
And all that it brings
Diamond clusters and all o’ the bling
Let us get away, I’ll give you all o’ the things
You’re my precious like in ‘Lord of the Rings’
And I’ll put the necessary ring pon you finger
To the right of you pinky deh
Pon you left hand
You know the wedding band, get a bridesmaid
Get a perfect wedding dress in your size made

Eyes on eyes, I eyes the prize beside me
Side by side in the ride we ride
Chick weh ride or die a play from the iPod I
LOX tune, me girl grow locks too
She on track with me tracks too, take me out of bad mood
Crush it up and roll Backwood
Intelligence she got too
Spirituality intact too, so you know I had to

And now she pretty in pink with a witty instinct
As I roll through the city of Kingston
A talk me a talk the truth, car tint so them can’t see who
And she wink as the stink hit the lids of her eyes while she staring
At me steering, hit clutch, shift gear in
No I lying, no clutch, tiptronic as the whip
Skip thru every room in the traffic

It’s gonna be

Hockey jersey inna heat, Patrick Ewing pon the feet, Buju Banton pon the

When a no now man a fight with po-po, police leave me colleagues please
Soldier lef’ the green inna can like Folgers
Like say a coffee, that haffi pack
Conceal the smell, collect it and unseal it then unleash it
‘Til the first mil reaching in
No sleep, we bleaching fi make money like Lee-Chin
Or at least him brother dem
So mi can try get a super buss until the money surplus like Superplus,
It’s a must!

I used to get a bounce pon me cheque, but now me get a cheque
everytime me track a bounce pon u deck
Plus me get a nod and a bounce from u neck, and a “ooow” she
pronounce when she bounce pon me
A thousand fi the ounce of the brown pon a stick or a stalk or a stem but
the pound do the trick for me
Full o’ so much ganja talk, just come in from me ganja walk
Oh yes it is pon me!
The lyrics make dem conversate it, police want fi confiscate it
When dem see it pon me
But squaddie say him love me music and that must be why me use it
So him leave it pon me
So mi leave promptly and go back a the yard, go back and record
Diggy lean pon me
With no sleep we hunting fi make money like Bunting fi achieve this one
thing

‘Cause…

It’s gonna be, who gonna be
We gonna be, it’s gotta be
I gotta be dread dread
From the first time I show my head, I gotta be dread, dread
From the first time I show my head, I gotta be dread, dread, dread.

Dread

Say them all have an argument
So I’m calm, I not harming them

And this girl is crying over me, dying over me, she wants me to know
This girl is holding on and she's bold enough to say she naa let me go
Next girl pree the scene and try intervene, what does she want me to do
Ex-girl keep sweating me, she naa set me free, she naa let me be

Me say me have a problem
Kinda no want fi have them
Yet mi kinda no want fi solve them
Woman I want fi have them in numbers, that’s plural
Whether uptown to rural
And not to say I can't settle down
Just trying to make u know I can’t settle now
I jussa make u know that I tried the monogamy
But I couldn’t take all a the naggin’ in ma noggin’ and

She say she kick sneakers off again
Her speakers on again
My CD is on again, gwaan again
Blunt no deh a yard again
You know she a order dem
No smoke with no other man other than
She say she better than all o’ dem
So me fi leff all o’ dem
and if me leff all o’ dem calling and
Coming over ma yard again and as it reach morning then
You know say dem gone again, argument

All have an argument
So I’m calm, I not harming them
Yet they all have an argument

LYRICS:

And She didn’t know how to tell him
She was In love with a Rasta Man
Fire was burning and Burning
To let out what she was holding In

I know her story before she say it
Daddy just want her Co-operate
Find somebody that’s corporate 
Suit and Tie more appropriate
Him say him naa make him daughter stray
But reggae music she start fi play it
Ital food when she sort her plate
Militant yute wah she want fi date
And that is what she need
Marcus Garvey she start fi read
Hair stop comb and it start look neat
SO him want keep her off the street from who she with
And that be me
More than a natty head is what she see
NO lovers leap is not for me
And she nuh waa keep it a secret but she cant tell him who she sleep with


And she wants to be free 
From all this captivity 
So she’ll be who she will be
They cant tell her who she need
They cant tell her who she want  who she can’t
She talk her owner chant chart her owner path 
And follow her owner heart
Call me over her own apartment
Now as I answer the phone that’s the tone she start with
She know say she don’t fi part with 
One Like I even though so much impart it
So she haffi do her owner thing
Cause she can never live life for them
Knowing that she would look back when
To the time weh she couldn’t explain to him cause then
