Move!

|

You got to move! Because it's good for your body! It is good for your soul!
But most of all, it is for skankin'!
In time
I've just discovered why
why people stands in line
why everybody's born where they die
so I decide to fly
away across the sky
it takes about the time to say goodbye
to all the things that tie you
so let's move from here
to another place
But I don't know where
yeah let's move from here
migration
from fossil generation
yeah this is my vocation
the only worry's get to the next gas station
and catch all the deviations
surrender your temptations
and only think about the next location
goodbye to all the things that tie you
so let's move from here
to another place
But I don't know where
yeah let's move from here
I saidda move, let's move
donot wanna spoil da groove
narrow mind I disapprove
am I talkin to someone or
did you pick me as a fool?
pack yo bags is da first rule
raise yo ass up from da stool
point yo fingah on a map and move!

Along the seashore a young lady is strolling, passing by
swinging her backpack on a hot midday of sweet July
so tell us all the summer where you've been
when they found out 'bout your style
as soon the riddimm came to them blasting from some soundsystem
take another beat!
she is carrying seashells maybe that's what's inside
but if you look her eyes they're shining with pride
and it is not too much weight for her to drag
still curiosity is wondering what's inside that bag
and if you pick up your ears you'll hear a far tune
that's where now she's headed in this hot streaming noon
footprints are fading with the tide of the waves
as the air is shacked by the beat of the snare
she sells for ska, you know, for the beginning people
some cells, not shells, to dance till the end
Along the seashore a young lady is strolling, passing by
swinging her backpack on a warm September crispy night
so tell us all the summer where you've been
when they found out bout your style
as soon the riddim came to them blasting from some soundsystem, oi!
she is carrying seashells maybe that's what's inside
but if you look her eyes they're shining with pride
footprints are fading with the tide of the waves
as the air is shacked by the beat of the snare

Early in the morning, still feeling a little dizzy
don't know what I'm doing here, is everyone still sleeping?
the floor became a graveyard of cigarettes and bottles
got nothing in my pockets, ain't even got my pants on!
I need to find the reason of what went wrong last night
my shirt smells like pot, my mouth tastes like red wine
but suddenly I realize why everything is upside down
there was a fire last night 'cause ska is back in town
cuz when you hear the screaming of the trumpet
ska will beat you and leave you on the carpet
cuz when you hear the singing of the trombone
ska will crack you and leave you on your lawn
I said there was a fire last night a battle for the loudest
trumpet against trombone, it wasn't just a sound test
and all those kids around them all, beating and stomping boots
that's when I just lost my mind, when I joined the groove
cuz when you hear the screaming of the trumpet
ska will beat you and leave you on the carpet
cuz when you hear the singing of the trombone
ska will crack you and leave you on your lawn

Gentlemen, it is time to get.. classy!
You gotta take a look at our trombone
he now has a second job
he's got a very very very long bamboo
and he's victim of a mob
every girl in the town wanna have him around
them all are standing in the queue
he's got a long time for all of you
just wait for his long bamboo
well this
is a warning song
not a sensation
You gotta take a look at our trumpet
he now has a second job
he's got a very very very fast bamboo
the second victim of a mob
every girl in the town wanna have him around
them all are standing in the queue
he's got a quick time for all of you
just wait for his fast bamboo
well this
is a warning song
not a sensation
You gotta take a look at our guitar
he now has a second job
he's got a very very very hard bamboo
the third victim of a mob
every girl in the town wanna have him around
them all are standing in the queue
he's got an hard time for all of you
just wait for his stone bamboo
well this
is a warning song
not a sensation
so ladies, please watch out
and then pay attention!

How happy I am today
to see the blue sky
across green leaves
yeah it is a resurrection
like a get up start
like to be free, be free!
this is my liberation
some would tell evasion
so dear to me
enchanting darling
after a long long waiting
just prove it to me, to me!
Always together, say that we'll never commit a crime
no one will capture our conceptions we'll be so fine
We're stealing in every way
feeling not guilty
we're serious thieves
we're finding connections
in every strongroom
we light a ray, a ray!
like ol' Robin Hood
we fight the sheriff
to save the poors
Not to be misunderstood
we're bestowing our cause
nobility!
Always together, say that we'll never commit a crime
no one will capture our conceptions we'll be so fine

Sweet Jah feat. Berise

Sweet Jah please help me reach mount Zion
I'm wicked down here in Babylon
Unchain my thoughts between bright and clear
We had rebelled and fall away from you
those who dwell in confusion cities
in cityblocks and in chaos they roam
so be your own home in yourself dwell
as any homeless my grant has got to tell
gimme the riddim sweet Jah Lord
those are my best days playing the chords
feeling si nice and sweetable
unto the top of mount Zion
Sweet Jah please help me reach mount Zion
I'm wicked down here in Babylon
Unchain my thoughts between bright and clear
We had rebelled and fall away from you
My soul is humble and remembers
my hearth considers all the hope you give
I sacrifice this song onto you
and all the people that I keep into my hearth
gimme the riddim sweet Jah Lord
those are my best days playing the chords
feeling si nice and sweetable
unto the top of mount Zion

cacao!
dai monti tirolesi lui scendeva per spacciarlo
un mutuo da pagare solo con il suo..
cacao!
e poi ultimamente coi clienti decimati
riusciva a malapena ad arrivare a fine mese
la gente era stufa del solito cacao nero
ormai abituata all'effetto del..
cacao!
serviva roba nuova, roba più assuefacente
gira già la voce che lo sanno anche le suore
lo spacciatore è in libertà
ma stavolta non fallirà
lo spacciatore di cacao
ma stavolta è bianco!
dovette abbandonare il suo vecchio cacao nero
la moda è cambiata, bianco adesso è il..
cacao!
purtroppo era chiaro la droga più commerciale
non era cacao vero ma cacao artificiale
e fu proprio così che il nostro pusher della Milka
riprese a commerciare stecche e buste di..
cacao!
te lo procura anche con le nocciole
gira già la voce che lo venda anche alle suore
lo spacciatore è in libertà
ma stavolta non fallirà
lo spacciatore di cacao
ma stavolta è bianco!

Grain of sand

How I love this daylight is so delicious
and there's no cloud in the sky
everytime those seagulls play their song
my hearth flies out so high
and the palms and the seashells, the sand and the ocean
shines on this perfect day
as the wind caress your hair
I drown into paradise
and maybe a little later, we will get together
the Sun will make love with the Sea
so just hold your tears and save 'em for tomorrow
'cause today is meant to shine
how I love this moonlight is so delicious
and there's a star-filled sky
everytime those crickets play their song
my hearth flies out so high
and the palms and the seashells, the sand and the ocean
glows on this perfect night
as the fire warms your skin
I drown into paradise

Free at last
03:01
|

Ti fai scudo di un ideale
di stendardi e morale
sfrutti il disagio sociale
ma tutto ciò che predichi si basa sull'odio razziale
ma un uomo è fatto delle sue azioni
non fonde i suoi concetti e preconcetti e proprie frustrazioni
resiste e non rinuncia alla
propria libertà
nei nostri petti i nostri cuori
batton per la libertà
le nostre corde, i nostri cori
vibrano per l'unità!
Hai paura del diverso
lo pregiudichi perverso
lo isoli dal tuo universo
e tutto ciò che predica e urla ti passa attraverso
ma un uomo è fatto delle sue azioni
non fonde i suoi concetti e preconcetti e proprie frustrazioni
resiste e non rinuncia alla
propria libertà
nei nostri petti i nostri cuori
batton per la libertà
le nostre corde, i nostri cori
vibrano per l'unità!
"Free at last! Free at last! Thank god almighty! We are free at last!"
