To The Foundation (D.Brown cover)
Alright..
Whaoh whoah yeah..
Whaoh, whaoh..
I've got to get myself together, yes,
Can't afford to let my faith go, you know,
Whenever Jah sun comes a shining,
And my sisters are all smiling,
No one is dying, my people aren't crying.
We are living in the love of the Father,
Living in the house of the Almighty,
We are living in the love of the Father,
Living in the house of the Almighty, yeah.
The days of destruction will never be, oh no,
Not hard for a wise man, who will see,
Yet the fool thinks he knows it all,
Sooner or later he stumbles and falls,
He goes down for a reason,
Jah keeps giving him a beating.
To the foundation, they'll have to go down,
To the foundation, chant them down,
To the foundation, they'll have to go down,
To the foundation, woah.. yeah,
Oh.. oh, well.
Alright,
Oh.. oh, well, oh yeah.
Woah.. yeah..
See,
The days of destruction will never be, oh no,
Not hard for a wise man, who will see,
Yet the fool thinks he knows it all,
Sooner or later he stumbles and falls,
He goes down for a reason,
Jah keeps giving him a beating,
to the foundation, they'll have to go down,
to the foundation, chant them down,
to the foundation, they'll have to go down,
to the foundation, woah.. yeah,
Ooh.. oh..
To the foundation,
Oh.. oh, well..

Blood Sweat and Tears - Forelock & Arawak (Dennis Brown cover)
My woman she is willing and able
Ain't no devil, no
Oh Lord, see
I woke up this morning
With no bread on my table
My woman whoa, she is so willing and able
Take it easy she said
Jah is alive and you must survive
I can't hold out much longer
The wicked is gritting stronger
And every day, it's just blood, sweat and tears
Burning inside of me
Every day, it's just blood, sweat and tears
Burning inside of me
Everyone's playing their game and tear
I just can't get my equal share
My woman whoa, she is so willing and able
Take it easy she said
Jah is alive and you must survive
I can't hold out much longer
The wicked is getting stronger
And every day, it's just blood, sweat and tears
Burning inside of me
Every day, it's just blood, sweat and tears
Burning inside of me, whoa oh

The Man Next Door - Forelock & Arawak ft Luciano the Messenjah (D.Brown cover)
There's a man that lives next door
In my neighbourhood
In my neighbourhood
He gets me down
He gets in so late at night
Always a fuss and fight
Always a fuss and fight
All through the night
I've got to get away from here
This is not a place for me to stay
I've got to take my family
We'll find a quiet place
Hear the pots and pans they fall
Bang against my wall
Bang against my wall
No rest at all
He gets in so late at night
Always a fuss and fight
Always a fuss and fight
All through the night
I've got to get away from here
This is not a place for me to stay
I've got to take my family
And find a quiet place
(..)
I've got to get away from here
This is not a place for me to stay
I've got to take my family
And find a quiet place
There's a man that lives next door
In my neighbourhood
In my neighbourhood
He gets me down
He gets in so late at night
Always a fuss and fight
Always a fuss and fight
All through the night
I've got to get away!
I really got to get away!
Note:
This song is a cover released in 1979.
The original was by Paragons and first released in 1968.

Roots and culture - Forelock & Arawak
Now hear what the man said!
This thing is called speak to the world about you roots
So make me go on and talk about my roots my brother man
Have you ever heard about Atlantis?
Have you ever been into a place called Sardinia island my brother man ...
Now I have something to declare
And it's how I love the place where I came from listen what I tell you...
I really love my roots and culture
Yes I mi really love the place where I came from.
History of my place it comes from long time ago
From when my ancient used to build up stone towers all around
Gaudy giant tombs dig in the ground are some of the reasons why I love my roots
Really love my roots and culture
Warrior blood flowing in my veins
To say I’m a local you don't need no evidences
Women and men come in a circle to dance
with arm in arm they have a tougher stance
Sheepskin they wear
fearsome mask on their face and ringing bell when they jump and prance
Outside look rude but inside they are pure. They will get sure the guests have eaten enough food
Conquering invaders kicked away are some of the topic when you read about our tales
You get interested by the story of my island when i'm talking upon the riddim whit this rub a dub style

Deliverance Will Come ft Juba Lion (D.Brown Cover)
Emancipation they say will never come
Oh, will never come
Man, I say, man is doomed to die
Dung inna Babylon with war and strife
Grief and terror and the tongues of hate
This I know, will soon abate
!! For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions !!!
From the hills of captivities' plains
Yes I, the seed !!of a righteous one!!
Will someday declare, for I this land
For my brothers and my sisters
And my brethren in the yoke of oppression
For the child who only knows of hate and destruction
Deliverance will come, come, come
Deliverance will come
Inna this yah time it will come, come, come
Deliverance will come, yeah, yeah
No more visitation
Now I know where I-man stand
Yeah, whoa, yeah
For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions, yeah
From the hills of captivities' plains
Yes I, the seed of a righteous one
Will someday declare, for I this land
The man called wise, they all laugh at me
My captivity and bondage all they can see
Emancipation they say will never come, whoa
Your destiny is in Babylon
And not in Beulah Land, Beulah land
But I know the weary, destitute and scorned, yeah, yeah
Weakened strength by oppression and dread reforms, yeah
But deliverance will come, come, come
Deliverance will come, inna this yah time
It will come, come, come
Deliverance will come, yeah
Jubilation, celebration, no more visitation
Inna this yah time, yeah
Jubilation, yeah, inna Beulah land, yeah
Inna Beulah Land, whoa

Should I

Should I (D.Brown cover)
Should I have faith in you?
Should I put my trust in you?
And should you let me down?
Should I flirt around..
Why should I think this way?
Thinking that you're going away.
There ain't no way, we'll stay,
Together anymore.
Am I to go on now? Living this way.
Acting like a child, so young and gay.
You don't know, what it means to be loved.
You don't know how it feels, to be hugged, oh no!
I've got to tell you this,
You're love I've tried to resist,
For I just can't go on like this,
Pretending each day.
You make me feel so mad.
You make me feel so sad.
Whenever I'm to share your love.
So how could I ever go on? Living this way.
Acting like a child, so young and gay.
You don't know, what it means to be loved.
You don't know how it feels, to be hugged, oh no!
I won't come down on you,
With lightning brimstone or fire.
For in my heart, that isn't what I require.
My desire is, for you to be true and strong,
And then someday you will get to know,
Where you went wrong.
How could I ever go on? Living this way.
Acting like a child, so young and gay.
You don't know, what it means to be loved.
You don't know how it feels, to be hugged, oh no!
No, you don't know, what it means to be loved.
You don't know how it feels, to be hugged, oh no!
