Yeah man realization man
You no see it reggae music a positive vibration
And that's why it deh inna the four comers of the earth
Guerilla Tony Rebel
A said I went to a uptown fair
On the earlier part of this year here
Where some of uptownist and some aristocratics
They were celebrating there
All kind of music the people did a play
Some from Caribbean and the U.S. of A.
But you should a did deh deh when them play some reggae
Me say the whole place just break away

Chorus:
A then me get fi realize how the music have the vibes
And that's why the people haffi love it worldwide
Realize how the music have the vibes
And that's why the people hatfi love it worldwide
Kinky me reggae, it rule every time
Kinky me reggae, like a star it a shine
K nky me reggae, boy me love how it a gwaan
Kinky me reggae, just a kick up a storm

It's not surprising I'm recognizing
The power at the music and a how it is a moving
I'm only hoping and I am voting
That this yah music will get its crowning
A long time fi a play an important role
Teach people good things comfort soul
Give thanks to the mar them weh make it preserve
And full time now it get, what it deserve

Chorus

I remember some a youth when me a grow
Them never inna nothing with stage show
More time them deh pan the street a palaav an a laugh
I sneak out gone take in a dance
Always when me come back the next day
Me tell them me did a try fi D.J.
But them always a say, reggae nah reach no weh
And me tell them weh no dead no dash it weh

Chorus

I used to wonder and used to ponder
If this yah music could really take over
The question answer that a come off me shoulder
And the earth the music at the four comer
So we better start show better interest
'Cause every company them no stop invest
Still lord nevertheless
We haffi acknowledge the gold mine that we possess

Chorus

Mi know some uptownist weh no love the music
Find say them pickney tun music addict
Every day them carry the youth them gone a psychiatrist
'Cause them feel say the pickney mentally sick
Send the children in the kitchen fi go wash up the dish
Every new dance weh come them no stop do it
Earphone Pon them ears walkman pon them hip
Ever listen reggae music from six till six
