BUBBLIN'

Feel free to get lifted
Young, fit and gifted
And as we gather to take part in this ancient tradition



Chalice full of water, ashes you nuh see
Zuggu light the matches burn the stash inna Kutchie
Lucky say me have it so as it chop and reap 
Chucky say him have it him will go for 'cause of me
Nuff inna the duffel have it stuff you shoulda see
Rougher pon the government free up economy 
Make them know say it a carry healing property 
Stack it tree pon toppa tree and sip it like a cup a tea
I can remember how them puff it pon the lane
Dougie dread them set it yeah him a did one of them
First a did a Collie now a Kush a just the same
'Cause when time Sunday morning come a one thing a remain say it 



Bubblin', bubblin', bubblin'
Bubblin' over this morning, yeah yeah yeah



Me have the stash inna the back weh prettier than Mona Lisa
Fresh up out the freezer, love it when it keep so
Any politician say a coulda Hanna Lisa
Slave owner law, come tell me you nuh see it so 
Get up out you seat and do something for the people
Plan up and them gang up fi do wrong under the steeple
Mineral me creep to, strictly river water
Stash it in a charter fi bun it with me father
Him give weh the brawta nothing no change at all
Him tell me from the start so me know da world ya small
I can remember the days of Taylor Hall
Me, him and Damion Crawford, dem time the chalice used to


Jah9 say a steam, she put no fire to her green
Shell pon top of gritty as we sip it and agree 
Say these trees, at least, no come from overseas
Unlike them food them carry in weh full up a disease
Take a breeze, take a seat, take a piece
Deh beside the general but you can sit at ease
Make some memories and forget some memories
With family and friends and the friends a the family we

From the streets of Jamaica coming live and direct
Proto Diggy deh ya we nuh need no mic check
step inna the place no badda disrespect
Just a warn the Ghetto yutes about the choice wah dem a make BOOM

Ladi Dadi naa join nuh party
look wha the politician them do to Claudie
look wha the politician them do to Jim
him son resurrect it and look wah them do to him
cause them will use and dispose of you those who are close to you
if you choose to trod this road u nuh
so bredda bredda if you war tonight
carry the scars of a Garveyite
carry the fire of a Melchezideck
when you mind get a chance represent 
or you might a no pass the present so 
no take them class love you fast then resent you 
want make it fast so them lost every cent too
so we go back to the ancient ways untold secrets that remained unchanged
mentally get unchained a one goal a one aim a the same wah you saying

(Sevana)
Got to stay through to the things you know are right 
Nothing worth the gain you attain by Sudden Flight
Brother keep you goals in sight
even in the darkest night 
have faith in the father the one who shines your light

(Jesse Royal)
Mercy me dem corrupt and covetous eeh
cause from me eye deh a me knee a one thing natty a see
the intellect a prey upon the poor poverty 
nobody naa dance though a two party 
oppression brainwashing and nefarious schemes
to keep the have-nots where they think they ought to be
I man hear promises of better when the poll time close
then a back to the same after winner announce
rockstone a river bottom never know say sun hot
so many a me brother them trap inna  the plot 
glock full a shot but no food  inna pot 
a wa wa wah kinda livity that
I an I a holla straight up wake up wake up Sons of Jacob
lay down their arms real tools you fi take up
stay up way up sons of Jacob time to show the cowards what we made of

so you've made it tell me what’s the basis thinking its so basic
cruising in the A6
Naa thats an illusion in the matrix
when you miss the payments then they gon’ come and claim it
You have to be focused keep the brain fit keep the flame lit never twist it when you aim hit
so what i'm saying simple and it plain  it all look the same when it flushing down the drain
watch dem as dem strutting up the lane with the rope gold chain 
chrome suppin in a hand 
Look up pon dem face touch a button if you can 
just fi try take you place a no nothing fi dem man
but that no matter cause another come along
and a run the place badder hotter than the summer sun
boof i see the cycle a repeat playing god up in your palace
with disciples pon the street

Damas and Mellow Mood ‘Keep Moving’ on to greater things in new track

Mixing different cultures, yet similar visions, Jamaican reggae artist, Damas and Italian reggae group, Mellow Mood have collaborated to release the upbeat single, Keep Moving.

Promoting unity, oneness and the willpower to survive, strive and thrive, Keep Moving is a motivating track speaking the universal language of positivity as Damas and Mellow Mood give music lovers and people in general the hope they need to survive in these trying times. With a smooth melody and top-notch instrumentals to boot, this track brings people together while pulling apart negative notions we often face in the battle against Babylon.

Such uplifting songs are the norms for these acts. The Kingston-born Damas is known for singles such as One Chance and Money Move while Mellow Mood, straight out of Pordenone, Italy, has built a reputation as one of the most potent reggae bands across Europe during their decade-long existence and is known for singles such as Dance Inna Babylon and Extra Love.

The band is used to the island flavor previously collaborated with Jamaican reggae stars such as Jah9, Hempress Sativa and the legendary Tanya Stephens.

Keep Moving will be available on iTunes November 3rd and will immediately fill your hearts with joy and ears with pleasure. 
Listen song via souncloud!

Blood Money is the latest release from Jamaican Reggae singer Protoje. The song lyrics provide hard-hitting, raw and unapologetic commentary on the current state of Jamaica, touching on recent grievances and social injustices that have afflicted Jamaican society. Protoje describes the air of discrimination, classism, and oppression prevalent in the Jamaican political landscape, calling out corrupt practices, and conveys the meaningful message to his audience of awareness, activism and the need to call for change and accountability.

LYRICS:
Me nah watch no face, beg no more pardon
A nuff drugs money deh a Cherry Garden
Nuff individual society applauding
You can ask anybody where them get them start in
But nuff politician take the donation
So nuff criminal will never see a station
Never see a cell, not even a courthouse
But a every Sunday we see them take the boat out
North coast resort and car dealership
The construction company dem just don't legit
Use it wash the money, turn it 'round and hide it
When the kickback dem come in, the government delighted
So...

[CHORUS]
Police cancel operation,
'Cause nuh real bad man nah go station,
Now if you check the situation, 
A blood money run the nation,
Come take a look inna Jamaica,
Injustice in the place now,
If what you see no really phase you,
Then you a the problem that we face too.

Was 'bout to buy an X6 you know
Maybe then I'd never have to be prisoner 
Maybe then I coulda not turn in my firearm 
Police couldn’t come remand 
Come in like me run an army 
Was 'bout to be a politician too 
Maybe then I coulda make any decision, look
Maybe then I'd make a hundred million disappear
Then me act like me nuh care 
Watch you vote me back in there 
Because the sad reality
Inna Jamaica, say your status is your salary 
Man deh road a carry one whole heap a felony 
But them have a family a boost up the economy 
So...

CHORUS

Is 'out of many' but a one set of people feeling it
How that real, society you agree to this
Things a reveal, the garbage the machine spit 
No smoke screen at Riverton nuh conceal it
Now the system failing, the gap a get wider
A matter of time before a total divide ya 
You cross the line, man draw quick fi remind you 
If you build it on crime then crime will have to find you 
And that's how it's been always, that no frustrate you like it do to me?
How much dead baby deh over jubilee?
How much youths did 10 when them run inna Tivoli 
Now them 16, heart fry, head fricassee 
So...

Lyrics for:
'This is NOT a Marijuana Song' by Protoje, Produced by Niko Browne for LifeLine Music. 2012

And so it was said that the herb be provided for I&I 

They don't want you to know Marijuana
Ites up and be Free
Jah so Let it be

Herb smoke keep i sane, take my pain 
Stop migraine, so much i gain, so why blame?
I'm saying Jah might bring the right strain 
To my brain fi chop lightning like I-Wayne
Cause man deh ya pon the Lava Ground
And if u soft like a guava u can't come round
This part of Town, I tell unuh the thought alone
A could a Sparta it falter down
REVIVAL Hallelujah it start up now
Reprisal fi the luu Jah it watered down, Naa Pardon none

What deh in a  mi garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

This is not Marijuana music
Just a Message from the ones that use it
Don't abuse it cause a mind that's fertile
Brings forth something that's worthwhile 
Know your worth child
Cause no officer alive coulda look in a ma eyes 
And see what i prophesy 
My mind it forever occupies, thoughts of.........
Hold ma talk cause spies amongst us
If trouble did a trouble me, well that mi chalice woulda bubbly
drop in a one load then double it

What deh in a me garden strong
This is NOT a Marijuana Song

Listen up, the truth is to be told
Open your eyes there is beauty to behold
What is the new if u consider the old
Why gain the world and no consider your soul 
What is the cloud if u understand the lining
Who is the king if u consider the LIneage
You know its H.I.M so no continue deny him
Is it freestyle if i consider the Line 
Then configure the timing adjust to fit the rhyme scheme
With no trouble to my mind really?
Seal It

I say wah deh in a me garden strong
This is not a Marijuana Song
