Ransom The Senator
We don't want a situation where the people dem a suffer thru a senseless.. Revolution
Now we're dealing with the violence and they're killing one another for the politics an illusion
They talk about peace while dividing all the people into tribal affiliations
Only one thing left for the people of the area, destruction... elimination
CHORUS
And so we Ransom the senator
Come mek we Ransom the senator
How many years of oppression and the innocent a suffer? So we ransom the senator
From the election we don't know what we've got... The difference with the have and have nots... So many people a suffer on your watch and so we ransom the senator
Liberate all souls from the practice of corruption hear the youth cry inna one voice
Deliver us from the valley of the shadows of destruction under gunpoint. You left us no choice
Preacher man have a Prayer for the sufferer
I and I pay a visit to de governor
Only one do the dirty work of all a them together, mek we ransom de senator..
CHORUS
You mek we take matters in a fi we own hands......
Tonight we get together nd we'll settle on the plan
True sufferation I don't know how we live
Without protection and with no benefit
You bleed the nation, we got no more to give
And so we ransom the senator
Hear me now big it up fi de heathens question fi de in de meeting of the minds of the global business
Gimme de price whe you put 'pon treason
You talk about peace and you think about war for de benefit a capital gain
You find enemies and you make them fight from the middle a political game
Question to de warlord general
Who make you feel presidential?
If so how many more people dead why not just you and your cabinet?
Who start with de first shot?
Who got all de people killing out nonstop? Not that fool on the hilltop
No sir, It's the long term senator, idiot. Believe that
-Reprise-
Oppressor we dentify, Put your hands up and keep them in sight
Stop the violence and bloodshed tonight, Listen up and we just might survive
What does the ransom note tell you?
From the election we don't know what we've got
The difference between the have's and have nots
So many people a suffer on your watch and so we Ransom the Senator
Hear me now, Jah Jah Children...
This is a bloodless revolution. Blindfold the senator, shave his head and take away his credentials.
Leave him in the worst neighborhood, Mek him feel how it is to live without privilege for just one night.
And realize, Senator... If you don't change your ways, the right time Soon Come

Coulda be microphone or ak.

She's signing the order, giving me my own
License To Kill
Chorus
Johnny got the big guns, Dressed up in a uniform
God is in your corner now, telling you you can do no wrong
Mercenary Shades Of Green, Looking for their Pot Of Gold
Johnny and the big guns, Brutalize dem out a road
Living a life under the threat of the gun could never be fun, Heroes and Outlaws
They all shoot down the next one
No matter what them a tell you now, Me Life Of The Party for real, you know?
Still me no like when dem commit the murder, call this a vacation
The harder the times the more they want to get to the heart of the matter, they follow the crimes
You get fatter, the rest of them dying... Things a rest 'pon me mind...
Seems them have a design
The best of the traps they keep the rats alive, inna the maze. Live out your life in a cage
Slave for all of your days.

Calling me Teflon [Don]? Take that camera out of my face
Gimme release 'pon the streets, within a week, me have to deal, with crooked police, dem bother my peace,
Because me defeat the rat race
No matter whe dem a go try fi run this is the norm, Wanna be sheltered from the storm?
Keep your hustling underground!
Just because you're writing a verse, you're tricking off all the game? You're worse than all of the damn informer dem
All of them

Fool me two time discrimination
Fool me three time, deportation

How man get all the ideas, put in all the work pon the verse?
I'm a lyricist... I got credits in the neighborhood clubs with the champagne girls
and the stripper chicks :o)
Now I am looking for the big city girl with the legs kinda tall, addicted to the nylons..
too many fake leather suits in the room with the cocaine spoons and disco medallions.
All in all I'm a realist, Authorities dem fear this, If your children hear this, they just might
think for themselves.
Beneath the heavens is a war now, they made the fallen angel a star now,
ZULU you've gone too far now.... lock him up inna the citadel.
Send the missile across the border, hesitation? GIVE THE ORDER..
Can't this idiot be stopped? He's got 11:59 on the doomsday clock!
Can you feel this? Blaze the fire.. thru your system getting you higher...
That's the question, Is he talking about the musical vibes or ganja weed plant?
CHORUS
Gal you got the body they be fighting about in the back of the parking lot.
All of the dopeboys fresh, and their necklaces gaudy, and you're wondering what they got..
"I got all of the connections to get you, meth and the coke and the sess too"
9 month baby you a breed and him left you... oh how this city life it will test you..
Bad Man. sick pon the verse, music around, call the police dem wan you keep this down
Whole heap of fan mail say they need sound, Jump inna the ride mek we leave this town
What's between us? No dollar$ and cent$ now? All of the love, but it don't pay the rent now
Put in a call to the dopeboy connect now .... don't bother tell me NOTHING 'bout vicious cycle

Walking among you with the secret of how to conquer space and time.
Take me to your leader now,
I keep you dancing. From me jump on the riddim I will save mankind
Chorus
Ghettoblaster, way past ten. You hear the music? Come alive again

I plug the speakers in and make the system overload
It's been a long time, since I traveled here. Riddim Killah cause nobody
Can compare. Dem try fi give me chase over the atmosphere.
Then crashing down to Earth, zulu Man gone clear
Don't get me wrong I'm just the messenger, but my ability is impressive,
A blessing, here's a demonstration: Me have the power fi manifest the knowledge
Of all the baddest artists who did it largest and hit the hardest.
I am a hit now with the rebel crowd. I'm in the mix now and they play it loud
I leave the ignorant people astonished, maybe we'll manage to get hatred abolished
Oh my god, It's the man, The Ghettoblaster
Chorus
Wha gwaan with the pretty girl that I left behind when I blasted off... What's her name?
She must have another man by this time, baby daddy, and maybe more, the way the
Drama plays
What about that Babylon [police] gal I wrote about but then someone beat me to the
Public play
Coming in for the landing now, but I know there's going to be hell to pay, with the gal dem
Riddim make the whole world step in line.
I will have you stepping like the world is mine.
A party aint a party if the gal don't wind.

More mayhem with a big recording, More dancing 'til the early morning
Hot winding when dem heed the calling, Riddim murda dem without a warning

More time dem hear the bass, and the rhymes, and the root, s and the culture
Whe de Zulu Man give them
CHORUS
When the kick drum drop and the gals dem hear this sound
All a dem realize seh the bass a the best around
They're going to lose control
Close up the window, I know how this goes, So much youth dem all a make dem noise
Out pon the corner, So much disorder, From the people want to make them choice
I just wonder, with the PEN... how they really gained full control of ALL the property
'Pon the corner the same ones inna the game going to hustle for economy
Now when the crowd a people want to deal with evil, all of them will see through
The wicked games
Music Murda will get them further, just run the right tune and something change
My recipe for the symphony, rinse the track thru Reverse Sixteenth.
Kush Arora with the Bad Man, Jump inna the dance and the gals dem scream
CHORUS
When the kick drum drop and the gals dem hear this sound
All a dem realize seh the bass a the best around
They're going to lose control
