Black My Story (Not History) lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story
Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story

From education to civilization
From astrology straight to biology

Black my story, black my story
Not his-tory, black my story
African glory, African glory
What we want to see, is African liberty

From Marakeshi to Egypt, Rio-De-Oro
From Cape Town to Addis-Ababa and Congo

African glory, African glory
What we want to see
African liberty, give it to me

Oh, black my story, black my story
No not his-tory, black my story
African glory, African glory
What we got to see, must be Africa's liberty

From Mozambique to Libya
Oh land of the Uganda
From Senegal to Somalia
Oh the land of good Ghana

African glory, African glory
What we want to see is African liberty
Black my story, black my story
Black my story, not his-tory

A black my story, I and story
Black my story, not his-tory
Black I story, black my story
Not his-tory, an African glory, chuc'aw African glory

One Bright Day lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together

There will be celebrations around the nations
Love without no care
There will be singing, plenty swinging
Live without that fear

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Yes it was one bright day
Yes it is one bright day

There is music, you choose it, love it, love it
Hear this music, don't lose it, love it, love it

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Hey, unnuh see the one bright day, South Africa free
Believe me, one bright day, a drugs free country

There was sunshine on the phone line
Wondering what you were doing
And then joy sent a note and this is what she wrote

One bright day the people got together
One bright day the people got together
Hey, unnuh see the one bright day, South Africa free
Believe me, one bright day, a drugs free country

Make it to the one bright day
A said the struggle to the one bright day
Struggle to the one bright day
Struggle to the one bright day

Make it to the two bright days
Make it to thre...ooh
Lord, the people got together
The people got together

So there can be, many, many, years and years and years

Who Will Be There lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

So I pop the question
Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there

We need each other more than we ever did or will
We got to get together
We got to do what Jah Jah will
Or get burnt within the fire, that's not my desire

Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there

So pack your bags, let's be on our way
We got to move out within the morrows
The cripple and the blind, you best not waste no time
We got to move out within the morrow
A question giving them horror

Who will be there
Who will be there
Hey could you tell me who
Who will be there
Who will be there
Could you tell me

Will you be there to see Jah shining face
And to drink life giving waters
Will you be there to see the morning sun
And to live a sweet life forever
A question needs an answer

Who will be there
Who will be there
Come on, come on, come on, come on and
Who will be there
Who will be there

Who will be there
This is the start of something new
Who will be there
So come on and tell me hey, will you
Who will be there
I said is a start of something brand new
Who will be there
Baby I wanna know who

Wanna know who
Tell me now will you
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Who will be there
Who will be there

When The Lights Gone Out lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

A battery tape playing in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

No matter what the crisis
It keep the spirit lively
Just as you feeling blue
Well I'll be there for you

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

Pretty girls dance in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

There ain't no dance
Unless you have good music
If you don't have good music
Then you don't have a chance

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

And a battery tape playing in the street
My only relief
All we have is just the music

When there ain't no justice to be found
They kicking you around
All we have is just the music

When the light gone out and the food run out
All we own is just music

You all know there ain't no party
Unless the music Irie
There ain't no love unless you show me

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

When the lights gone out and the food run out
When there ain't no justice to be found
Is just the music
When there ain't no answer from above
When there ain't no one to love
Is just the music

When there ain't no shoe on your feet
When there ain't nothing to eat
All we have is just the music
When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music

Problems lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Problems, personal problems, people problems
We people got to solve them

Stop wishing and waiting, stop meditating on a fairy tale

Stop wishing, stop waiting, stop thinking of a fairy tale

Hey someone got a problem, personal problem
People problem, come now let us solve them

All Love lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

There's something going on over there
There's something going on over there
But there's something going on right here, and it's our life
I see some boogie, out of their shoes
Some just grooving, grooving to the groove
I am skanking, skanking loose
But we're all doing the same thing

It's just all love
Got to be all love
It's just all love
That's right, all love

Wake up your love in the morning
Wake up your love in the night
Shape up the love, shape up the love in the morning
Shape up that love tonight

There's something going on over there
Well there's something going on over there
But there's something happening right here
It's our life, I and, I and I life
Some smile all the time, some a pop, pop till you drop
Do a steady rock, rock steady easy
'Cause we're in the same thing

It's just all love
Got to be all love, tonight
It's all love
People give it, all love, now, what what

Shake up this place let the earth quake
Wake up this place let the earth vibrate
Shake up this place let the earth quake
Wake up this place let the earth vibrate
'Cause there's something going on

Well there's something wrong going on over there
And there's something wrong, way, way, way, way, way back there
But there's something right, right here
It's our life, I and I life

All love
I'm giving it, all love
I don't, I don't know that, all love
I'm giving it, all love

I can't hold back, all love
Tonight, it's just all love, all right
All love
Don't hold back, all love

There's something happening right here
There's something happening right here
There's something happening right here
All love, all love, all love, that's what going on, all love

Look Who's Dancing lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Oh look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now

Well, first the dance floor
Was like a forbidden land
Where people would never dare to go
But now everyone's doing it
I said it's a dance galore

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Oh look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now

And some are dancing on their feet
Some are jumping off the floor
And look at old Granny "B"
She got the, she caught the, she knows the groove for sure

Look who's dancing

Look who's dancing now, right around
Look who's dancing

Look who's dancing now, get on the floor

Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing
Look who's dancing now
Look who's dancing
Check the dancing
Look who's dancing now, get on the floor

Do the ska, the rock steady, the ridim and blues
And if you catch them, then you do the della move
It nuh mek nuh sense to sit down, when you know you can groove
Any type of danve you do, you neither win or lose

And if your choice is reggae, you don't need nuh dancing shoes
Suh listen to the message, and you know you won't lose
Look who come, come dancing pow we dancing floor again

Love Is The Only Law lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say

We only live to learn to love
And no lesson is greater
Make it your gain, suffer no shame

Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't business what they say

We'll only live if we learn to love
And no, no, no, no treasure is greater
What it your aim, suffer no pain

Love is the only law to obey
I know you care what they say
Love is the only law to obey
I know you care what they say

If it in your mind to commit the sin
I hope you know, no destruction is greater
What is your aim, you better explain

Love is the only law to obey
Oh yeah, don't care what they say
Love is the only law to obey
Don't care what they say

Kid you only live if you learn to love
And no lesson is greater
Make it your gain, suffer no shame

Love is the only law to obey
Love is the only law to obey
Love is the only law to obey
I don't give a... what they say

I obey, you obey, she obey, he obey
We obey, you obey, I obey, you obey
She obey, we obey, you obey, we obey
Everyone, everyone, everyone

Love is the only law to obey
The law of life, the law of life
The law of life

This a music, a reggae music, a reggae music
All music, universal language, music, music music

Conscious Party lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And I know there'll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Everyone is happy tonight

And everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of your world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party
Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party?

No booze to lick our head
Now we can't lose in life way

Tomorrow People lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you're gone
But you're gone so long
If there is no love in your heart - so sorry
Then there is no hope for you - true, true

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

So you're in the air
But you still don't have a thing to spare
You're flying high
While we're on the low o-o-oh

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Tell me now
Tomorrow people, where is your past? No where
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!

Stop tellin' me the same story
Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you're gone and you're not coming back
If there is no love in your heart oh now
There will never be hope for you

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, come on
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, come on
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, no soon come
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, soon come
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, today is here

If you don't know your past, you don't know your future
Everyone
Don't know your past, don't know your future everyman
Don't know your past, don't know your future, come on
Don't know your past, don't know your future

How many nations
How many people did that one catch
How many nations did that one catch
Don't know past, don't know your future
Don't know past, don't know your future

Tumblin' Down lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Here comes the eagle
Here comes the bear
And they're fighting to control
The lion dominion

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes synthetic food
And their big time money
And they want to control
Our body and soul

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes the maker
To crush the oppressor
Well I bet you didn't know
It was mind over matter

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

Here comes the eagle
Here comes the bear
And they're fighting to control
The lion dominion

But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
But the load gonna come tumblin' down (Jah, Jah know)
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down
But the load gonna come tumblin' down

A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah

They are crazy lazy
And full of intentions
Flakey, shakey
What a misinterpretation

A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A dem a say
A dem a say

A dem a say
A dem a say
A dem a say there ain't no Jah

Hedonist, sadist
Nazi intention
Masochism a devilizm
Is life's intervention

A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah

How could you say
How could you say there ain't no Jah
How could you say
How could you say
How could you say there ain't no Jah

The signs before us
Are simple and clear
Soon men will know
Only Jah to fear
They are crazy, lazy
Always inventing
Shakey, flakey

A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A who a say
A who a say
A who a say there ain't no Jah
A dem a say
A dem a say
A dem a say there ain't no Jah
But I a say
And high a say
And I a say there is a Jah

Have You Ever Been To Hell lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

The heat is on so arm your soul
The heat is on so arm your soul
The heat is on so arm your soul
...Guiltiness...
...Lord Knows!...Guilty ones!

Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell and hell again? Guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell and hell again?

Don't you know
Is there vanity
And inhumanity?
Cries from the guilty sayin'
Who's gonna save you soul?
Why didn't you give to the poor
Now you got to cry
Oh guity! And tell me

Have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell, blasphemers!
Have you ever been to hell and hell again (oh)?
Have you ever been to hell murderers!
Have you ever been to hell guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell and hell again

So y'know you could tried some more
Like you never tried before
Got to get out of a ditch
We've got to remember
Earth conquers bone

Yes man's got to make the switch
So, have you ever been to hell?
Have you ever been to hell guilty one!
Have you ever been to hell again? Liars!
Have you ever been to hell pushers?
Now, have you ever been to hell?

Souldds are bought and sold
Cause for so much woes
The strain never ends
Sister, if you haven't been there
Don't wish to go! (Never)
It's not like a duppy show! (No no no)

Have you ever been to hell? Guilty ones!
Have you ever been to hell murderers!
Have you ever been to hell again arm your souls
Have you ever been to hell tell
Have you ever been to hell not o well!
Have you ever been to hell and hell and hell and hell

I'm gonna arm my soul
We got to arm our souls
Heed the warning
Satan!

Have you ever been?
Have you ever been y'all
Have you been
Have you ever been now
So have you been
Ever ben to hell and hell, and hell

Guilty ones, murderers, top notch
Have you ever been
Said I never been, never ever been

We Propose lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

Callin' callin' callin'
Warnin' warnin' warnin'

We propose to live up our life
We propose to do what is right
We propose to free our people
We propose to live in Africa

This mess, yes we detest
Controlled by another hand
They're puppets, they're just some puppets
Their thing's just a puppet show

So we propose all people be free
We propose equality for you and me
We propose politicians know this
We propose united (so)

You confess to your wickedness (I said)
The people already know
Protest is not enough
For the blood that flows (that's why)

We propose to be freedom fighters
We propose because we are all nighters
We propose to lick them down
We propose to free Africa

Yes, it's very serious, not delirious
The things that we say
Now let me hear the music sound
For sure we're gonna stick around

We propose...
We propose all people must be free
We propose let music be free
We propose we're gonna do what is right (whoa)

This is not a request
We propose ghetto youth live right
We propose stop fight
We propose politicnas learn this right now
We propose free Africa

'Cause we're tired of talkin'...listen to the people
Tired of balkin'...this is not a request
Tired of gamin'...listen to the people
Tired of playin'...listen to the people

We propose politicians learn, learn, learn
We propose warmongers learn, learn, learn
We propose fascists learn, learn, learn
Open your ears... listen to the people

We propose...
No one is perfect in this un-perfect world

What's True lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

Christopher Columbus discovered whom? (uh-uh)
If their leader is closer to God (who? who?)
Who is for whom?
Are they doing the right thing
For who? for who? for who?

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

So men say they're doing their best
To put the people on the line
They say we're livnin' in their time
Not true, not true, not true

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
But what is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)

Did you know the name of the slave ship (save me lord)
That carried us through and through?
Did you know they change things?
But they can't change me or you, me or you

There are many stories (2 many)
Both old and new
What is true? (too too true, what is true?)

There are many stories (3 many)
Both old and new
What is true, what is true? (what's true, what's true, what's true)
What's true, what's true, what's true

Plain truth without no sugar
Plain truth
Just the plain truth, no preservatives
Plain truth
100% raw truth, is what we need
Raw truth is what we feel
Raw truth without your sugar
Plain truth

Dreams Of Home lyrics - Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers

We're having dreams of home
And you know we're not alone
Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone

Look how long we've been away
How long are we going to stay?
Look how long we've been away from home
How long are we going to roam?

Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone
Having dreams, having visions
Having dreams, having visions
Why can't we people see
Why can't we people see
This is not where we belong?
And there is a holy land

Dreams of home
Having dreams, having visions
This ain't no fantasy
Prophecy
Ain't nothin' strange
Life must be rearranged

Dreams of home
And I know we're not alone

And if you don't believe
I wish you well, I wish you well
And if you don't believe
I wish you well, I wish you well
