buju banton - tribal war lyrics
[intro – brian & tony gold with buju banton]
rude boys, be wise
war mongers
cool down deh pon all the war and strife
oneness
no tek n0body’s life
unity
[chorus ft. buju banton]
tribal war (take heed)
we don’t want no more of that
tell them like it is (a’ nuh you we a’ trod)
tribal war (you get that?)
a’ nuh that we a’ defend
tell them like it is (cry tears, why?)
[verse 1 – buju]
remove the blindfold
primitive days end
we have done it already and we won’t do it again
just to hurt your own brother
all your life was spent turning the wheels of evil
put an end to di trend
what is done cannot be undone
amen, amen
blood a’ run, mother dying, starving children
mom would a’ say where di answer?
when will it end?
some a’ bawl, some a’ holla
for me nah k!ll dem
because of tribal war you nuh see di pickney dem
war and oppression, aid can’t reach them
what’s the solution for the matter?
all war have fi end!
remember that
[chorus ft. buju banton]
tribal war (buju banton say so)
a’ nuh that we a’ defend
tell them like it is
[verse 2 – ganzie]
why can’t we say peace?
and no bother wit’ di war?
too much blood a’ run
me can’t take it not at all
politicians a’ showing dominion
setting no form of example fi the [?]
influencing the youth
with money and dem weapon
was so greedy and blind to the situation
on election there comes politics fiction
and man a’ rival and i see it’s tribal
say see a [?], see a [?] live like a cannibal
our voice of the earth throughout the dancehall
unu must educate the youth, tell dem di truth
stop fight di truth it a’ cause too much dispute
a what dem man a’ say father rebel?
[rebel]
so much things to say, let’s celebrate today
i tell you this, watch this, have mercy
[verse 3 – rebel]
a’ election or not, we nuh haffi fire shot
’cause remember that the most of us colour is black
like sardine ‘pon the slave ship the whole of we did pack, and
’till the whole of we end up a’ jamrock, you better
promote life and demote death
you can’t big up the k!lling and yuh can’t blow breath
honour these words and nuh disrespect
’cause anything you work for man a’ that you goin’ get
[chorus ft. rebel]
tribal war (man say put it on pause until you ready fi fight for a cause)
we don’t want no more of that (that’s not needed my friend, put that to an end!)
tribal war
a’ nuh that we a’ defend (let love abide)
tell them like it is
[verse 4 – rebel]
say from the day that me born me never see the need for strife
if them need to do that man a’ with dem voice
so dash weh the gun and dash weh the bomb and dash weh di knife
a’ full time now we start to unite
’cause this is something that we must practice
fight fi equal rights and justice
right now we haffi try set some new trend
’cause the tribalism it must come to an end
[chorus ft. rebel]
tribal war (listen keenly)
we don’t want no more of that (take heed my brother take heed don’t follow that greed)
tribal war (fight for your wants and fight for your need and remember to sow good seed)
a’ nuh that we a’ defend (’cause what you sow is that you reap)
tell them like it is (an’ nuh bother set up no whole leap a’ fire heap ‘pon ya head yuh hear sah?)
[outro]
tell them like it is
tell them like it is
