DESIRE (For that Hopeless Soul)
Produced, Written, Composed, Arranged and Performed by Jesse Jagz for JAGZNation®
Every man wan climb higher, Every youth got a dream, got a desire/ So, some of them turn vampire/ The other them (poetically licensed), them sit and judge like umpire/ Me, I light up bonfire/ Every morning me ‘a hustle and me burn tyre/ And me only fear Jah and gunfire/ Anytime me ‘a hear, me ‘a run tire (tyre).
Jah protect me, when the evil man come/
And me don't have a gun, me say oooh oooh I (Response)
Jah Selassie protect me, when the evil man come/
And me don't have a gun, me say oooh oooh I (Response)
Every man wan climb higher, every youth gonna sweat and perspire/
Man ‘a do anything for what he desire/ Them ‘a thief and kill and them ‘a burn tyre/ Stress a hundred degrees some are burn (born) higher, some are living in hell them a burn tire/ Some don't fear Jah or gunfire/ Anytime me ‘a hear, me ‘a run tire
Jah you see, everything I see/ me don't know, where for me to go
Jah you know every little evil that man do me/ the way he rough handle me
Every man would run away, if day never came and no sun again/ And we only got the moon to stay, real goons will come out to play, they come out to spray/ Like a soldier, every man is fighting for survival until Babylon over/ Every man is looking for a friend and searching for a lover/ Everybody wanna know, when its cold outside will you cover? / Will you love no other? / If hunger doesn't kill you it only makes you stronger, mama no wonder/ the fire and lightning, Brimstone and Thunder have covered me.
