[Lyrics Buju Banton - Maybe We Are]
Maybe we are
A different race of people
Maybe we are
A different color people
Maybe we are
Of different ends and reasons
Maybe we are maybe we are
Of different spiritual conviction
People of the world come together by virtue of love
Able to be seen yet at most time they
are unable to touch
Make not my brother my rival
Don't watch skin color we all want survival
Isn't it blood that flows through the veins of man
You've got a heart and when I search my
self I've got one
Why must we be at each others throat
There goes the breaking of solemn oath
And the words you say to they mean anything
When you say that you love does it come from within
And the songs yoyu sind do they mean anything
Will they calm our fears and our suffering
Ah ah ah ah
It make me feel like crying
Ah ah ah ah
It make me feel like crying
Ah ah ah ah
It make me feel like crying
Ah ah ah ah
It make me feel like crying
Earth rightful ruler runs no wire fence
May not be your neighbor still yet we can be friends
Though language barrier we find ways to comprehend
Each man is my brother and I am glad to say that each
man is my friend

[Lyrics Built to Spill - Three Years Ago Today]
The other night I dreamt about a sudden realization
That everything bad that can happen to me would
Woke up screaming god I hope Im not bleeding
Out my eyes or mouth when I die
I have seen a sheepish wonder
I see me three years ago today
No ones gonna push my buttons
No ones gonna have their say a little while later I was trying to remember
But then it didnt seem quite as awful as it seemed
Cant believe I wont admit that I have seen a sheepish wonder
I see me three years ago today
No ones gonna push my buttons
No ones gonna have their way feel about the same but Im 10 years older
Watched my cat die for a month now I have seen a sheepish wonder
I saw you earlier today Built to Spill - Three Years Ago Today Lyrics](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yEln1UICKaM/mqdefault.jpg)

![Buffy Sainte-Marie - Smack Water Jack Lyrics
[Lyrics Buffy Sainte-Marie - Smack Water Jack]
Now, Smackwater Jack,
He bought a shotgun
Cause he was in the mood
For a little confrontation.
He just a-let it all hang loose;
He didnt think about the noose.
He couldnt take no more abuse
So he shot down the congregation.
You cant talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand.
Now, Big Jim the chief
Stood for law and order.
He called for the guard to come
And surround the border.
Now, from his bulldog mouth,
As he led the posse south,
Came the cry, We got to ride
To clean up the streets
For our wives and our daughters!
You cant talk to a man
When he dont wanna understand.
No, no, no, no, no.
The account of the capture
Wasnt in the papers,
But you know, they hanged ol Smack right then
Instead of later.
You know, the people were quite pleased
Cause the outlaw had been seized
And on the whole, it was a very good year
For the undertaker.
You know, you know, you cant talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand.
A shotgun in his hand.
Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun.
Yeah, Smackwater Jack bought a shotgun.
Oh, Smackwater Jack, yeah.
Talkin bout Smackwater Jack, yeah.
Talkin bout a-Smackwater Jack, now.

[Lyrics Buffy Sainte-Marie - Up Where We Belong]
Who knows what tomorrow brings
In a world where few hearts survive.
All I know is the way I feel
If its real Ill keep it alive
The road is long
And there are mountains in our way
But we climb a step everyday
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow
Some hang on what used to be
They live their lives, looking behind.
When all we have is here and now
All our lives up there to find.
The road is long
And there are mountains in our way
But we climb a step everyday
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow.
Time goes by
No time to cry
Lifes you and I
Alive. Today.
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagels cry on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the worlds we know
Up where the clear winds blow. x 2 Buffy Sainte-Marie - Up Where We Belong Lyrics](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ynZhD4XbH-Y/mqdefault.jpg)

[Lyrics Built to Spill - Cleo]
Wiggly days wiggly nights
When its dark bring in lights so you can see
What a sound straight through my spine
Bounced off me
Makes me round
3-D sound
Push it down move it around
see Im fine
Aint it strange that I can dream
(You can say its night or day
Snow or rain its all the same)
When theres nothing I have ever seen
(In here, In here)
Aint it strange that I can dream
(You can say its night or day
Snow or rain its all the same)
Aint it strange that I have brain activity
(In here, In here)
Who brought those cameras in?
Who gave who the right?
Inside a sea turned from frog to freak
(Linnart Nilson shut off those lights)
To tiny, red, and meek
Strange that Im a human being
Aint it strange that I can dream
(You can say its night or day
Snow or rain its all the same)
aint it strange that Im a human being
(In here, In here)
Aint it strange that I can dream
(You can say its night or day
Snow or rain its all the same)
Living in the womb
Running out of room
Have to come out soon
Have to meet the sun and moon and Built to Spill - Cleo Lyrics](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yozUZN00s2A/mqdefault.jpg)

[Lyrics Buju Banton - Til Im Laid to Rest]
All my days!
Seem like they have been wasted, eh? (Uh huh)

Till Im laid to rest, yes
Always be depressed
Theres no life in the West-uh
I know the East is the best
All di propaganda dem spread
Tongues will haffi confess
Oh Im in bondage
Living is a mess
An Ive got to rise up
Alleviate the stres
No longer will I
Expose my weakness
He who seeks knowledge
Begins with humbleness
Work 7 to 7
Yet me still penniless
For di food pon me table
Massa God bless
Oller fi di needy
An shelterless
Ethopia awaits
All prince and princess-uh

Youd better watch yourself
Thats what people say
Its too late for that

And yo I loved to baby him

Then he start to turn on me
And it aint no fun no more

Needles in the drawer
Theres blood all in the mirror
And theres strangers at the door

[Lyrics Buffy Sainte-Marie - Tall Trees in Georgia]
Tall trees in Georgia they grow so high they shade me so
And sadly walking through the thicket I go
The sweetest love I ever had I left aside
Because I did not want to be any mans bride
But now Im older and married I would be
I found my sweetheart but he would not marry me
When I was younger the boys all came around
But now Im older and theyve all settled down
Control your mind my girl and give your heart to one
For if you love all men youll be surely left with none
Tall trees in Georgia they grow so high they shade me so

[Lyrics Buju Banton - Well Be Alright]
Been through the fire and didnt get burn
Buju Banton, Luciano come fi teach
Listen and you will learn
The price you pay
And still at the end of the day
For them its just a lue la lay
We have done all the good that we know should
Spread a little love in the neighborhood
Buju done that, I and I done that
Spread a little love in the whole wide world
And telling my people better take control
We have done that, I and I done that
Well, so tell I, why do they act so strange who
Through mi natty them would a love mi rearrange who
Come ya to speak the truth, the natty never hold it back
I never hide the truth, Jah know mi never hide the fact
No couldnt love mi talk, no couldnt love mi chat
A who a try stop Buju fi reach pon top
Buju Banton, Luciano, two youth them cant stop
Touch it, touch it, touch it star
Amidst temptation, I and I will be strong
I earn my meditation in this holy Armageddon
With love and righteousness, we manifest upon creation
Together were standing tall
Well be alright
With Jah by my side
Most people think others cannot make it without dem
No man is an island but I still cannot trust dem
Oh, we have learned more than what theyve taught us
So in this day and age, well let knowledge take its place
Over the mountains and over rocky terrains
We try to prove to mankind that Jah Jah lives and reigns
He in the heart of man so we must manifest
Together were standing tall
Put your shoulder to the wheel, go days without meal
Walk up and down, run down mi boot heel
Nuff think I am jokin, nuff thinkin its fun
Catch I when I fall
We have been everywhere in the world we could
We spread a little love, we haffe know we should
We have done that, Buju Banton done that
We have traveled the world and we spread Jah word
Tellin mankind to rise and move forward
We have done that, yes, Jah know we have done that
Why do they think Rasta cannot make it without dem
No man is an island but I refuse to trust, good gosh
Oh, we have learned more than what theyve taught us
So in this day and age have got to let us, let us
Cannot move in rage, thats a wrong stage
That dem wan fi si mi do fi fling me inna cage
Take it easy, deh pon a descent page
Yeah, Im not face
We will survive, yeah, Buju Banton
We will survive, oh, Luciano [Incomprehensible]

And food mi ago hav it nuff plenty
