Sherieta - Reggae Is Life Lyrics

Lyrics Reggae Is Life - Sherieta



I shall sing as long as I live
I shall sing
Sing this yah reggae music yea
And as long as I live I shall sing
Sing for my people yea
Oh
Another day has come
I open my eyes and I stare at the sun
I get up outta bed and then I stretch and I yawn
Thank Jah for his blessings all the works he performed
Take out my book and pen
And I start to do the one thing I do best again
I think about the people and the things that I see
Add some more reality and some more of my dreams and now
This one is for you (this one is for you)
I won't lie to you
I will fight for you with every word
I will be the voice for you (Be the voice for you)
Sing each song for you
I won't stop til they've all heard that there is truths and rights for you
Love and life for you
Giving all you the chance you deserve
I will take the little that is left on this earth
I will preserve
I'll give my word
'Cause...
Reggae music is the bread and water
Reggae music is the coal and fire
Reggae music is the tears and laughter
Reggae music is life, life, life
I could go on and on
The full has never been told
About the concrete jungle 400 years ago
When Johnny try to be good ina dis yah last war
But him Haffi exodus when the curfew start star
And though the years have changed
Johnny is now Randy but the story stays the same
Some will try to change the message we bring
But Jah Jah done seal up the songs we sing
'Cause
These songs are for my people
The broken but still put up a fight black people
The wise up, the rise up, the strong white people
The Indian, the Chinese, the world a people yea
Truth and rights for you
Love and life for you
Giving all you the chance you deserve
I will take the little that is left on this earth
I will preserve
I'll give my word
'Cause...
Reggae music is the bread and water
Reggae music is the coal and fire
Reggae music is the tears and laughter
Reggae music is life, life, life
Some people think the music outdated and we look like fool
Because dem song yah nah really play in the bus to school
This lioness on the rise is not afraid
I got a warrior kinda love for this yah music and I nah change
I'm giving you hope when you feel sad
For every boy and good girl gone bad
To be a winner
Just gwaan believe life soon sort out no matter how it seems
Cause...
This one is for you (this one is for you)
I won't lie to you
I will fight for you with every word
I will be the voice for you (Be the voice for you)
Sing each song for you
I won't stop til they've all heard that there is truths and rights for you
Love and life for you
Giving all you the chance you deserve
I will take the little that is left on this earth
I will preserve
I'll give my word
Cause...
Reggae music is the bread and water
Reggae music is the coal and fire
Reggae music is the tears and laughter
Reggae music is life
