Nesta Marley

[Verse 1: Wretch 32]

Vibing it out, silence the sounds

Take the highs with the lows, smile at the clouds

Time is a must, they say I'm in a rush

Them just winding me up cah me nuh have time of the month

Whether you're riding a bus, driving a truck

You still reach where you're going, so don't mind dem you nuh

When it's raining it pours and your shining will come

Know your days can be long, but your life is a plus

[Verse 2: Skip Marley]

Jah run tings see nuh tings run we

Realist mentality conquer normality, yeah

We gotta set free

Cah I'm not the enemy, sacred's the energy

Jah deh with me anywhere we go

Coulda famine, coulda inna drought

We shot dem through the stereo

Wretch show dem all ah di

[Pre-Chorus: Wretch 32]

Rasta, rasta, rasta

Mister lover, lover, lover

Mister shotter, shotter, shotter

Dancing in the streets, dancing in the streets

[Chorus: Wretch 32]

I grew up on Ali and Nesta Marley

So who waan fi party? Mi waan fi party

Turn up the volume, mi come fi party

But mi turn up di party, nah ramp around me

I grew up on Ali and Nesta Marley

So who waan fi party? Mi waan fi party

Turn up the volume, mi come fi party

But mi turn up di party, nah ramp around me

[Verse 3: Wretch 32]

A likkle glimpse of the bigger picture

Love thy neighbour, protect ya sister

Nah war your brudda

God sees man in his image, there's nothing richer

Fruits of the scripture, we need to reiterate and deliver

Pain for the champagne, grace for the dinner

Ital will live on, no meet in me inner

But life ah guh live on, so still we deliver

Roots and culture in my system

Di eye dem big and strong

People fighting out my window

Can't they see the sun?

In these times I pray for better days

Where we all can live as one

Silver lining that it's not so bad, it's not so

[Pre-Chorus: Wretch 32]

Rasta, rasta, rasta

Mister lover, lover, lover

Mister shotter, shotter, shotter

Dancing in the streets, dancing in the streets

[Chorus: Wretch 32]

I grew up on Ali and Nesta Marley

So who waan fi party? Mi waan fi party

Turn up the volume, mi come fi party

But mi turn up di party, nah ramp around me

I grew up on Ali and Rasta Marley

So who waan fi party? Mi waan fi party

Turn up the volume, mi come fi party

But mi turn up di party, nah ramp around me

[Post-Chorus: Wretch 32]

Roots and culture in my system

Di eye dem big and strong

People fighting out my window

Can't they see the sun?

In these times, I pray for better days

Where we all can live as one

Silver lining, that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Non-Lyrical Break]

[Outro: Wretch 32]

All the way, I'm blessed indeed

(Blessed) Blessed and anointed

(Blessed) Blessed with my choices

With great depth, it's embroidered

And use every breath for the voiceless

I'm speaking, I'm speaking, let me speak (Highly blessed)

(And highly favoured)

My cup overrunneth with love and abundance (Jah)

I stunt for the ones who have suffered and run with those who are above us

'Cause it all means nothing if one hand don't wash the other

And both hands don't fill the cupboard and

Break bread to feed the brothers

(Blessed) Feast among us

(I am powers and always) Feast among us

(Yeah, oh)

(I am) Blessed
