Tracks + Lyrics:

1. Conscious Party (Live)

Conscious Party
Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

No booze to lick our head
Now we can’t lose in life way
No booze to lick our head
Got to stay a light in darkness
And everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
But not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Spirit of Jah passes through
I can feel him, so can you! Yeah
Makes one want to get up and dance
I said we’re jammin’ on this love and chant
Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
But it’s not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Everyone, and Jah-a-everyone

I get smiles of Happiness
Jahlification a dances
Brothers loving their sisters…
Sisters loving their brothers

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of your world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party
Everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
And how could there be any fight
In such a Conscious Party?

No booze to lick our head
Now we can’t lose in life way
No booze to lick our head
Got to stay a light in darkness
And everyone is happy tonight
But not because of the world
It’s not because of the world
And I know there’ll be no fight
In such a Conscious Party

2. Looks Who's Dancing (Live)

Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now
Look who’s dancing
Oh look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now

Well, first the dance floor
Was like a forbidden land
Where people would never dare to go
But now everyone’s doing it
I said it’s a dance galore

Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now
Look who’s dancing
Oh look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now

And some are dancing on their feet
Some are jumping off the floor
And look at old Granny “B”
She got the, she caught the, she knows the groove for sure

Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now, right around
Look who’s dancing
Who is dancing
Look who’s dancing now, get on the floor

(groove section)

Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now, around the world
Look who’s dancing
Oh look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now

And some are dancing on their feet
Some are jumping off the floor
And look at old Tauter him
He got the, he got the, he got the, he got the beat for sure

Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing
Look who’s dancing now
Look who’s dancing
Check the dancing
Look who’s dancing now, get on the floor

(groove section)

Do the ska, the rock steady, the ridim and blues
And if you catch them, then you do the della move
It nuh mek nuh sense to sit down, when you know you can goove
Any type of danve you do, you neither win or lose

And if your choice is reggae, you don’t need nuh dancing shoes
Suh listen to the message, and you know you won’t lose
Look who come, come dancing pow we dancing floor again
Some a dem a enemy, some a dem a friend

Some a dem a mother and father, some a dem a children
Some a dem a loafer who a follow the trend
And some a dem a just dey ya as we good brethen

That’s why we ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged
Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged
Ra ra ra ragga muffin
Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged

That’s why we ra ra ragga
That’s why we ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged
Ra ra ra ragga muffin
So we ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged
Ra ra ra ragga muffin

That’s why we flash certain dancing style, it sound well wicked
If a guy woulda really try, so you know him stupid
Exorcism, devilism we nuh deal wid
Our faith in jah jah man, it well, well, well solid
So pray every day and ask for strenght and knowledge

That’s why we ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged
That’s why we ra ra ra ragga muffin
That’s why we ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff and rugged

3. Start It Up (Live)

Start it up,
Bring a revolution
Front the evolution
Love’s the contribution. Sing.
Start it up,
Heal the wounded warriors
Raise us to victorious
Start it up,
Be the one who leads us
Right from wrong will be just
All we need is your trust
Start it up, yeah

Like a lion in the morning sun
You can live like a champion
Save the world we live in
Burn down the walls of our skin
We can rise from the ashes again

Start it up
Bring a revolution
Front the evolution
Love’s the contribution. Sing.
Start it up,
Heal the wounded warriors
Raise us to victorious
Start it up,
Be the one who leads us
Right from wrong will be just
All we need is your trust
Start it up,

When the politician take all our rights
And they shake us all down with their might
When government can shoot
Down on defenseless youth
You can see people’s marches unite

Start it up,
Bring a revolution
Front the evolution
Love’s the contribution. Sing.
Start it up,
Heal the wounded warriors
Raise us to victorious
Start it up,
Be the one who leads us
Right from wrong will be just
All we need is your trust
Start it up, start it up,

It don’t take a blind man to see where the world is headed
It won’t take a wise man to know that our Earth is threatened
There is no future to seek if we don’t come together
Love is the chance that we take and the answer forever
Yeah, sing it with me

Start it up, start it up, start it up
Love’s the contribution. Listen.

Like a lion in the morning sun
You can live like a champion
Save the world we live in
Burn down the walls of our skin
We can rise from the ashes again

Start it up,
Bring a revolution
Front the evolution
Love’s the contribution. Sing.
Start it up,
Heal the wounded warriors
Raise us to victorious
Start it up,
Be the one who leads us
Right from wrong will be just
All we need is your trust
Start it up, start it up,
Who’s gonna start it up?
Who’s gonna start it up?
Start it up

4. Fly Rasta (Live)
[Chorus]

Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Chedda don che
Not to have to hold up yo head, do
Redder than red
We work fo’ that red

[Verse]

Take that velvet separation onto the love
You know strom them see the dead
And all the days of yo vow-up separation
No rays of shroud will come upon yo head

[Chorus]

Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Root to them roots
My spirit speak the truth
Cutter than cute
I might cheat god, boya

[Verse]

Now there’s an evil that we see under the sun
Bitches comein’ around men
What have the fool moon and the wise
Band can’t live alone unbread
Wear it, I would say
Enlighten the laws of jaja
With the most ganja
The fellows meditate,
Living better than lifting house over the Sanomany
Like the tree granted by water
Poverty don’t spit the man don folley
These leaves never wither

[Chorus]

Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Fly rasta, you fly rasta
Chedda don che
Not to have to hold up yo head, do
Redder than red
We work fo’ that red

[Interlude]

When I say blessin’ to the money come walking out dotti
And standing in the way of civil life, I would say
Take a vow of separation
And all the days of your life
Let no rays come down upon your self

5. Black Cat (Live)

Black cat come visit me, I don’t care what people say
I saw your hazel eyes, sparkling in the moonlight

Black cat one day things will change, I’m gonna wipe away your bad name
my friend tells me you’re no good, and I say hey I’m not afraid

Black cat you’re beautiful, why does everybody run away
has anybody told you, I care
has anybody told you, I love you

Black cat come visit me, I don’t care what people say
I saw your hazel eyes, sparkling in the moonlight
black cat things will change, I’m gonna wipe away your bad name
black cat you’re beautiful, black cat, black cat

6. Butterflies (Live)
[Verse 1]

The battles you will win with arms
And only love can win the war
She says am high I am must be smoking so much kush in bed
Why am talking about these crazy things
Like who really has the most to gain
The ones who find the flame
The ones who tell the tail
That history never fail
Words are form a page
A shaklee for the brave
So the dragons dreams came true
What about me and you
We can be butterflies
If only you knew

[Chorus]

The battles you will win with arms
And only love will win the war
We can be butterflies
Now if you hear what I say
Only the sun can bring the day
We can be butterflies
Yeah

[Verse 2]

They say am not really in the bet’s are already in
And I didn’t have a poker face
Ooh the river was just around the ben
For sun it’s just a game
The ones who sell the barns
The bullets and the guns
They build the tanks and planes
They sent to find our pains
Ooh the serpents dreams came true
Why not me and you
Now we can be butterflies
If only you knew

[Chorus]

The battles you will win with arms
And only love will win the war
We can be butterflies
You hear what I say
Only the sun can bring in the day
We can be butterflies
We can be butterflies

7.Tomorrow People (Live)

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you’re gone
But you’re gone so long
If there is no love in your heart, so sorry
Then there is no hope for you, true, true

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last?

So you’re in the air
But you still don’t have a thing to spare
You’re flying high
While we’re on the low o-o-oh

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Tell me now
Tomorrow people, where is your past? No where
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!

Stop tellin’ me the same story
Today you say you deyah
Tomorrow you say you’re gone and you na come back
If there is no love in your heart oh now
There will never be hope for you

Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, how long will you last? Ten years!
Tomorrow people, where is your past?
Tomorrow people, tomorrow people, come on

Don’t know your past, don’t know your future everyone
Don’t know your past, you won’t know your future, every man
Don’t know your past, you don’t know your future, come on
Don’t know your past, you don’t know your future, hey
How many people did that one catch
How many nations did that one catch
Don’t know past, you don’t know your future
Don’t say, don’t know past, don’t know your future

How many people did that one catch
How many nations did that one catch
Come on come on

8.True To Myself (Live)

Life has come a long way since yesterday, I say
And its not the same old thing over again, I say
Just do what you feel and don’t you fool yourself, I say
‘Cause I can’t make you happy unless, I am I say I say I

Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself

Day in day out I’ve asked many questions, I say
Only to find the truth it never changes, I say
If you don’t deal with it it keeps killing you a little by little, I say
Call me selfish if you will my life I alone can live, I say I say I

Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself (in a way all)
Got to be true to myself

I don’t care if it hurts
I’m tired of lies and all these games
I’ve reached a point in life no longer can I be this way
Don’t come crying to me I too have shed my share of tears
I’m moving on yes I’m grooving on well I’m finally free I’ve

Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself
Got to be true to myself

Got to be true
Got to be true
Got to be true to myself (in a way all)

Got to be true
Got to be true
Got to be true to myself
