Lyrics by Yuya Joseph, Music by Michael St. Clair
Pontificating on the fate of man-kind
It’s useless unless we learn from one another
Setting the stage 4 the new world man
Complexities of nature in a new promised land
Time 2 fix up what went wrong, Build up what went right!
What went wrong, What went right
Searchin’ 4 a signpost some sorta light in the night
2 love faith and charity, freedom truth and rights
What went wrong, What went right
Looking back now on the 20th Century
From Hitler and Stalin, 2 Marley and Sellassie I
From evil and error, 2 Unity and Goodness
I vote 4 music and dance, togetherness and harmony
Time 2 fix up what went wrong, and build 4 2morrow!
What went wrong, What went right
Searchin’ 4 a signpost some sorta light in the night
2 love, faith and charity, freedom, truth and rights
Baby, tell me what went wrong, and what went right
I thought I knew U
I think I remember
U believed in peaceful things
Harmony and nature, goodwill and hope
Now I see you’re choosing enemies
Glorifying violence, obscuring Light
What went wrong, What went went right
Searchin 4 a signpost some sorta light in the night
2 love, faith and charity, freedom, truth and rights
Baby, tell me what went wrong, and what went right
There once was a day we dreamed of one people
Not religion or armies just faith in humankind
I’d take U there now but you’re not one 4 leavin’
So stay awhile with me … I just wanna hear U breathing!
What went wrong, What went right
Blazing our trails all thru the night
Give U Everything
Lyrics by Yuya Joseph and Music by Michael St. Clair
Back in the summer of twenty-o-five
We were fighting in the streets just 2 stay alive
U never knew what was coming next
Warfare and terror eatin’ brightest and best
People turning 2 religion 2 hide
From one another and all the reasons 2 cry
Nobody told me ‘bout the sun and the shade roles
I wanted your heart mind body and soul
I only wanted Everything
We were young and relentless
Our passions burned hot
I’m gonna give U everything
My story life world visions
Everything I’ve got!
I’m gonna give U everything
I’m gonna give U everything
I’m gonna give U everything
Gonna give U give U give U give U
Give U everything
‘Twas in the autumn of twenty-o-eight
Things were really looking up, Irie, jus feelin’ great
Two very long days since the birth of Iyasus
Cusp of a New Day, a Spirit a Muse
I couldn’t believe my good fortune 2 meet U
See your smiling face, hold your hands, and greet U
In Beijing and Addis and at home in Canada
We’re rockin the world from Athens 2 Asia!
How Shall We Thank Thee
Lyrics by Yuya Joseph, Music by Yuya Joseph and Michael St. Clair
Better get a walkin when you’re knockin out your talk ya know cuz
Rockin’ without talking is like knocking out a crock
Jah rules all em Jah mek all em
Jah make em sing a rock I know cuz
Singin’ without rockin’ is like talking without thought, but
Jah, sets us free
Jah, moves us 2 higher ground
Jah, You’ve set us free
Jah, how shall we thank thee?
Go out in the evening hear the reggae up a block
Feet‘ll start walkin’ ‘cause Jah Music cannot stop
Body start a swayin’ 2 the local reggae chop
That sweet ole I I music gonna mek I wanna shout, that
Jah, sets us free
Jah, moves us 2 higher ground
Jah, You’ve set us free
Jah, how shall we thank thee?
Oh Jah, You set us free
Jah, You moved us to higher ground
Jah, You’ve set us free
Jah, how shall we thank thee?
