Art And Life

[Versw 1]

Haili king Selassie bless I

Having my ways and I've seen your days

Sing it and have it set a nasty craze

So I reach a state

Turn a new page

Stand by me my sister stand by me now

Having my days and I've seen your ways

Sing it and have it set a nasty craze

So I reach a state

Turn a new page

Stand by me my brothers help me sing a song say

[Chorus]

Art and life, art and life, art and life

Cah this is my, art and life, art and life

Art and life, art and life hey!

[Verse 2]

Tell dem fi cool cah man a ragga ragga

Tell dem a school man a carry dem inna

Moses rule with di ancient dagger

Mi seh eyes a rasta man rise Selassie banner

From mi a yute reggae music mi inna

Tell yuh di truth nuh other work mi nuh prefer

Can't change bulb nor mi caan patch tire

But yuh hand mi a mic di whole dance ketch a fire

Hear dagger tune weh di dj a mutter

As a ghetto yute rise up and stop suffer

Driving a path fancy yuh fall down mi ladder

But instead a man a go ban mi rise up fi di better

And his funeral mi seh

[Chorus]

Art and life, art and life, art and life

Yeah! and this is my, art and life, art and life

Art and life, art and life yeah!

[Verse 3]

They say I am a star now

Weh live mi life fi everyone

Show lord that we can all just get along

Be strong and help another brother man

In this time I say

Well inna this ya time now

You gotta hold a position

Height on that ghetto yute ya look upon

Clean heart and good meditation

That a be my weapon

And now a just di

Right time fi start di Armageddon

Bright side mi haffi fight Babylon

My work a reggae revolution

As a Rastafarian! and sing along seh

[Chorus]

Art and life, art and life, art and life

Is all about, art and life, art and life

Art and life, art and life

[Verse 4]

Question to di world(ask dem)

And I seh who is gonna be my friend

Through thick and thin to di end

Less I be a vessel for di word

Equal rights and justice

Some neva get rid a nicely done

All man shall reap what they sow

All what big man boast all baby should know

Big freestyle now

I'm not gonna move and go slow

Ask you a question and take it down low

Why say that now

Having my ways and I've seen your days

Sing it and have it set a nasty craze

Now I reach a state

Turn a new page

Stand by me and help I sing a song like this

[Outro]

Art and life, art and life, art and life

Art and life, art and life art and life...
