Yes eyes
Pick up
Bubble that
Yeah
When I come again to take away the pain
Lift up your heart
When I come again to drive away the pain
Lift up your art - I must know
If it ain't of no flower dew
It'll sure make you blue
Lift up your art
If you don't know which way the wind is blowing
Wicked gravity



If you don't know by now
You may never know
When I come again to drive away the pain
Lift up your art
If it ain't of optimism
I will pay no attention
If you should know
I really need you
You would overcome
Feelings

If it ain't of no flower dew
It sure ain't for you
Lift up your heart
If it ain't of no flower dew
It'll sure make you blue
Lift up your heart
Here I come again to drive away the pain
When I come again to drive away the pain
Lift up your heart
If you don't know by now
You may never know
If you don't know which way the wind is blowing
Wicked gravity

As hard as it is for me to imagine, this song takes reggae to new levels of suckitude. This music may have wonderful insightful meaning to some folks, but not me. Of course, I'm not the worldy example of shining tolerance and goodness that some of the RPeeps are, but at least I recognize what I do and don't like. I'll save the "We Are The World" and "All Music Is Great, No Matter How Bad It Is" sentiments for others to enjoy.

This is the lowest rated song I've ever seen on RP. It is simply torturing..

This sucks with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns.

I always hate it when singers use fake Jamaican accents to sound "reggae". It's not working, dude!

A friend of mine once said that you have to listen to rubbish occasionally because that makes you appreciate good stuff even more. Well, I've done my bit for today -- back to the good stuff please!

Let me just pile on and agree that this is a great album. His next album was a mess (random words don't make lyrics, dude), but this one has some great songs on it.

Wow, no hanging about here, this only just got added from the LRC! Yup, I'd agree, a solid album this. Some of the other tracks are a bit more immiediate, but this one (for me anyway) was a real "grower" and whilst wasn't my favourite track on the CD initially, ended up being my favourite by far.
