Title: What I Need
Post by: natural blacks on December 07, 2006, 09:30:25 AM
what i need:

heat, air, water & earth
black woman inna i palace,
ites life i-fants, shi give birth.
every ones inna irie togeddaness,
community reasonings,
nuh man nah grudge him bredda nest.
Haile Selassie I-trait pon every rastaman shelf,
Christian a read dem bible,
InI a reason, amongst and within InI self.
muslim and anglican seat up a london tower,
pope benedict, GUH DUNG!
... any weather, any hour.
queen elizabeth repent,
help black people earn dem pay.
white house get SHOOK!
... earth seh no more enslave.

mek wi love wi one a nedda,
show kind and care.
every man have food and shelter
a till earth and share.
youth and I-ncient a reason,
humble irits and respect,
every man a hol dem own view,
but nuh tension nuh erect.
who betta-off look out fi who nuh got
country leadership I-ritical,
nuh ones nah fight fi di spot.
a jus' love a emanate,
rastaman a repatriate,
dalai lama gone a tibet,
china free di holy state.
black man an woman a run dung a africa,
peace and ease in di east,
more nurse and teacher, less army officer.
whole heap a earth, whole heap a people,
everyting can even.
critic nuh stand one side,
come a di table, mek wi reason.
every man "chat out dem eyes"
...come mek wi strike a compromise.

       ... all i need is love.
