lyrics

They say a chalice a day keep the doctah away
Well u can’t prove it?
We haffi tell the whole story about the herb
If INI endorse it
The ganja is a blessing from di earth
Don’t forsake it or abuse it
I said I wanna sing a different kinda ganja tune
kinda song that u never knew

I want to sing a different kinda ganja tune
Every song the same, nothing new under the sun and moon
I wanna talk about how we must build the nation
And how the ganja gonna fund the education
Of our youth that we sending to failed institutions
An how we gonna use the ganga for bettah solutions
For Uplifting the community and the resurrection
Of a people who ah suffer poverty, indoctrination
For my people, this system don’t have no good intentions
And I know say that the herb is the healing of the nation
But INI nah get nowhere smoking away our problems
While the profits go to government and greedy corporations

Ah me nah wanna hear the same ole ganga tune
Or how much the ganja smoke ah make the man dem swoon
Sounding like you love the ganja more than you love your people
Ganja is for liberation not for sedating the sheeple

A chalice a day keep the doctah away
Well u can’t prove it?
I said We haffi be the herb connoisseur, yeah
If INI ah use it
I say the ganja is a blessing from above
Don’t forsake it or abuse it
I said I wanna sing a different kinda ganja tune
Kinda song that you never knew

Don’t wanna hear another song about the high grade makka
Unless we talking ‘bout how high we gonna trade stock options
I say, put down the spliff and lift up level, brick and mortar
And set the foundation for Sellassie I sons and dawtas
Decriminalization, yes, we need fi legalize it
And keep the poor from unjustly being penalized still
Ganja-smokin’ ain’t for ev-er-y man or every woman
How can INI use the sacred herb from top to bottom?
The stem, the stalk, the branches and leaves make healthful tonic
Not just the Flowers and the buds which some callin’ da chronic
Medicinal healing, boom economy it offer
But yet routine rolling can cause unfavorable outcomes
I beg ur pardon but me nah jump on the weed bandwagon
Rastafari is ah movement so we nah gonna stay stagnant
And if we use it wisely, enough philosophizing
Time fi Rasta mansions come together and start Organizing
