Sizzla *April 17, 1976

[afrotumble]

Born in Kingston in 1976, Sizzla has brought reggae into the 21st century. He's released a whopping 56 albums to date, with some of the most important being 1997's 'Praise Ye Jah' and 2013's 'The Messiah', which brought Sizzla his first Grammy nomination. Some of his most loved tracks include 'Thank U Mamma' and 'I'm Living'. No other contemporary artist has managed to recreate the popularity of reggae throughout the 70s and 80s as Sizzla has today.

We're living in serious times

Watch out

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

Gotta keep your heads up high, can'tbe giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

(What's wrong with us?)

Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

Rough life, nuff crime, youth them a do hard time

No guides, no sign, walking on a thin like

Sentenced, no trial, victim of a profile

No hope, more fight, wonder why we're hostile

False prophet make profit, focused on their pocket

White collar false docket, door open, can't lock it

Politics, polytricks, equal econometricks

(Where is the justice?)

Death toll rising, sex commercializing

Barely surviving, future jeopardizing

No compromising, hope paralyzing

Rules need revising, why is it surprising?

Got to heed the warning, see the storms are forming

Not the time for stalling, look around it? so appalling

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

(Mad, crazy you know)

Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

Nuclear warfare, satellites everywhere

Mothers on welfare, what about Medicare?

Ethnic cleansing, freedom pending

Government spending, who are they defending?

Bankrolls on poles, anything to enroll

Spotlight's their goal, price paid their soul

Step back, retrack, notice where your life's at

(Where was it worth it?)

Got to heed the warning, see the storm that's forming

Not the time for stalling', look around it's so appalling'

Poor is the mentality that disregard humanity

Say no to this insanity, create a new reality

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

It's a mad, mad world that we're living in

Gotta keep your heads up high, can't be giving in

Don't you let one day go by without praising the most High

'Cause it's the only way we ever will survive

Rough life, 'nuff crime, youth them a do hard time

No guides, no sign, walking on a thin like

Sentenced, no trial, victim of a profile

No hope, more fight, wonder why we're hostile

False prophet make profit, focused on their pocket

White collar false docket, door open can't lock it

Politics, polytricks
