Lyrics The Herb - Tony Rebel

All sess massive! All we head us get active
Get loose an dem tell meh how us think positive an think man... sing
Oh we Lord have mercy

An this is something me come here fi tell everyone, one
Say that ah good sensimilla ah it used to run dis land, land
Ah but ah since di other
Say dem ah deal with substitution, 'tion
An ah di crack an cocaine whey ah bring pure destruction,
'Tion

That's why this morning me get up on me right real ah talk
Ah me seh ah waan address inna to di prime minister
Meh seh di next one ah addressin' it to security minister
Meh nevah dun deh waan to di commissioner
Because deh dem ah equal rich confounder
Cause all di eldah man gon fight 'gainst sensimilla
An ah itta put poor people back pon fire
Um we used to plant it nuff inna Jamaica
An di money duun wheh nuff police an soldier
An dem ah import di coke fi mash up weh future

But I seh deh herb an juss me brain it preserve
You see di herb it make I mind observe
You see deh herb it juss ah straighten me nerve
You see deh herb I know it enuff fig herb

So come crowd ah people ah you fi listen an understand-stand-stand
Cyaan meh seh inna one time man ah sess used ta run dis land-land-land
But meh seh recently dem juss ah deal with
Substitution-tion-tion
Seh now di crack an cocaine wheh ah destroy di youth ah pon deh land-land-land

Ah but di sess mek you wise an it mek you brave
An dem seh it was found on Solomon grave
But true weh tough on money, nuff man juss ah crave
An dung inna heat like seh dem ah slave

You see di herb ah juss me brain it preserve
You see di herb it mek me observe
You see di herb now an it get what it deserve
You see di herb ah mon it strengthen me nerve

Caan haf fight 'gainst one ah no waan lift di other one
You ah fight 'gainst di herb yah bring food fah di land
An leave dem go kill without ah destruction
Now me seh deh government me waan to no fi understand
Yah tink seh we don't know about to no plan
An really waan ah study law fi mek a million

But you seh di herb ah juss meh brain it preserve
You see di herb it make I mind observe
You see di herb it nah get what it deserve
You see di herb I know it enuff fig herb

So come crowd ah people ah you fi listen me an
Understand-stand-stand
Cyaan meh seh inna one time man ah sess used ta run dis land-land-land
But meh seh recently mon dem on substitution-tion-tion
An now di crack an cocaine an dat ah bring pure
Distruction-tion-tion

So dis ah morning me get upon me right wheel ladder
Seh ah waan ah dem address inna to di prime minister

Meh nevah even duun de waan to deh commissioner
Because deh all dem ah equal baton confounder
All di eldah man gon fight 'gainst di good ganja
An ah itta put poor people back pon fire
An we used to plant it nuff inna Jamaica
An di money don wheh nuff police an soldier
An dem ah import di coke to mash up weh future
