Reflection lyrics

Feel them spirit
Feel them spirit
Feel them spirit
Lord, I thank you
Lord, I thank you
Feel alright now
Feel alright now
Feel alright now
Lord, I thank you
Lord, I thank you

I'm gonna put it on, I put it on already
I'm gonna put it on, and it was steady
I'm gonna put it on, put it on again
Good Lord, help me
Good Lord, help me

I'm not boastin'
I'm not boastin'

Why boasteth thyself
Oh, evil men
Playing smart
And not being clever?
I said, you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity (if a-so a-so)
But the goodness of Jah, Jah
I-dureth for-I-ver

So if you are the big tree
We are the small axe
Ready to cut you down (well sharp)
To cut you down

These are the words
Of my master, keep on tellin' me
No weak heart
Shall prosper

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet, yeah
Make you wanna move your dancing feet now
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know, y'all, can you understand?

When the mornin' gather the rainbow, yeah, yeah
Want you to know, I'm a rainbow too now
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know, y'all, can you, can you, can you understand?

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet now

All twinklin' lee
Can't see the right rose when the streams abate
The old slave men might grind slow
But it grinds fine, yeah
African herbsman, why linger on?
Just concentrate, 'cause heaven lives on
Greet-I-eth slave men will look with a scorn
With a transplanted heart (yes, how quick they had to part)
(... how quick they had to part)

The remembrance of today

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air;
If you listen carefully now you will hear.
This could be the first trumpet, might as well be the last:
Many more will have to suffer,
Many more will have to die - don't ask me why.

Things are not the way they used to be,
I won't tell no lie;
One and all have to face reality now.

You've been riding
You've been riding quite a while, child
(keep on riding, keep on riding)
You've been jiving
Like a peacock, that's your style
(keep on jiving), ooh (keep on jiving)

Now I remember the days in school
There wasn't a time when you didn't treat me cruel
Ooh, wait till I get my hooks on you
I'll show you what a fisherman can do

You're riding

There you are, cryin' again
But your loveliness won't cover your shame
There you are, you're takin' true love
And while you're takin' true love, you given the blame

(How could I ...) Could I be so wrong
To think that we could get along?
Days I wasted with you, child
If I count there'll be a million or two
Now I stand alone through the memories
That haunts me, that haunt

400 years (400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o)
And it's the same -
The same (wo-o-o-o) philosophy
I've said it's four hundred years;
(400 years, 400 years. Wo-o-o-o, wo-o-o-o)
Look, how long (wo-o-o-o)
And the people they (wo-o-o-o) still can't see.
Why do they fight against the poor youth of today
And without these youths, they would be gone -
All gone astray

Come on, let's make a move:

There she goes with the pieces from my heart
There she goes and now my teardrops start
And `ere I go once again
Tru deese loonely `eartaches and pain
That`s all remain all remain
Now I know love is a guessin` game
She goes with the pieces from my heart
There she goes and now my teardrops start
Who`s gonna put back the pieces to my broken heart

Try me [try me]

Try me [try me]

Try me [try me]

Try me [try me]

Try me [try me, try me]

Try me [a wah wah wow]

Try me [try me, try me]

When the hurt is strong

And everything you do is wrong

You need someone to comfort you

Well, listen baby, I'll come first to you, so

Try me [try me, try me]

Try me [a wah wah wow]

Try me [try me, try me]

Try me [a wah wah wow]

Why’s this fussing and a-fighting?
I wanna know, lord, I wanna know
Why’s this bumping and a-boring?
I wanna know, lord, I wanna know now

We should really love each other (love each other)
In peace and harmony (peace and harmony), ooh
Instead, we’re fussing and fighting (fussing and fighting)
And them workin’ iniquity (... iniquity)

Wake up and turn me loose
Wake up and turn me loose
Wake up and turn me loose
For the rain is falling
Got to have kaya now
Got to have kaya now
Got to have kaya now
For the rain is falling

I'm so high, I even touch the sky
Above the falling rain
I feel so good in my neighbourhood, so
Here I come again

Got to have kaya now
Got to have kaya now
Got to have kaya now

Lively up yourself and don't be no drag
Lively up yourself, 'cause this is the other bag
Hey, lively up yourself and don't be no drag
You lively up yourself, dig it, the other bag

Hey, you rock so, you rock so, like you never did before
You dip so, you dip so, and you can dip thru my door
You come so, you come so, oh yeah, like I do adore you

One good thing about music, when it hits you fell no pain [repeat]

So hit me with music, hit me with music

Hit me with music, hit me with music now

I got to say trench town rock
I say don't watch that

Trench town rock, big fish or sprat

Trench town rock, you reap what you sow

Trench town rock, and everyone know now

Trench town rock, don't turn your back

Yes, me friend, me friend
Dem set me free again
Yes, me friend, me friend
Me deh 'pon street again

Yes, I've been accused
Wrongly abused now
But through the powers of the Most High
They've got to turn me loose

Yes, me friend, me good friend
Dem set me free again, mm
Yes, me friend
Dem turn me loose again

(Yes, me friend) Me friend, me friend, me friend

Bend down low
Let me tell you what I know now
Bend down low
Let me tell you what I know, what I know, what I know
Long time, we no have no nice time
Doo-yoo-doo-dun-doo, yeah, think about that
Long, long, long, long time, we no have no nice time
Doo-yoo-doo-dun-doo, yeah, think about that, mm

One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel alright
One love, hear my plea, one heart

Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Lord, I've got to get on down
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Where I can't be found
Lord, they're coming after me

I've been accused for the killin'
Lord knows I didn't do
For hangin' me, they are willin', yeah, yeah
And that's why I've got to get on thru
Lord, they're coming after me (a-one more time)

(I say) Lord, I've got to keep on moving

Ooh-ooh
Old Mr. Joe, he build a house away
On top of some hill
Old Mr. Joe knew he had to go, so he
He got right down and wrote bank will
He say now, here's to mother hen
And her chicken, Lord have mercy now
Master, will you take a roll in the mud
Like you know you should?
The old barnyard, the old barnyard
Birds and the chick, ooh-wee
Who's got to watch out for brother mongoose
