Sweet Sativa
(lyrics: Uwe Banton; music: Family Music)
now, if your head can't take it, you better leave it
but leave the Rastaman alone
it's a wicked act to declare the plant of all plants as illegal
a crime within itself against humanity
to deprive us of the healing of the nation
(chorus:)
though they try to keep you down
the fact that you are still around
shows me you are the leader
love you my sweet sativa
no, you never fail to help me
so extraordinarily
shows me you are no diva
love you my sweet sativa
(verse 1):
oh, what a wicked campaign
babylon try to use them brain
can't belive, you dem waan blame
yet you never drive no one insane
then again, they might be just jealous of your fame
so I can never get tired of telling them again and again, yeah
(chorus)
(verse 2):
no other plant has equal medicinal purposes
yet your story has not been like a bed of roses
with laws and regulations babylon opposes
the healing that is growing right under their noses
how long will they try to fool the people
by spreading rumours every day
but the truth must come out, I say
(chorus)
(verse 3):
now it is just a matter of time
to release those who have been unjustly confined
Rastaman a bun it in the tabernacle
and a plant it up nuff inna di Pinnacle
we come fi occupy, and come fi settle
'cause a so it done set by Mr. Howell, the original Gong, yeh
(chorus)
