live for today and not for tommorrow is the wisdom of a fool
say people when you love you shall not say the lord is in your heart
but you shall say I am in the Heart of The Lord

I like particulary the lyrics of "self praise" of the Twinkle Brothers in their album "Miss Labba Labba"
Look at yourself
And tell me
Who do you think you are?
Your reign is from Earth today
You are the star
But i say
Self praise its not recommendation
Yes i sing
Self praise its not recommendation
Today is your hour
You know xxxxx xxxxx
Blablabla etc etc
(sry for bad translation)
...on a killer music and melody! TRY IT!

I already try to ask for good lyrics in a topic called "beautiful lyrics", (but no answers). so I will write again the same thing; one of the most beautiful and truthfull sentences in reggae music for me :
"you must be born again to reveal the body as the true church"*
(IJahMan, Church)

great lyrics from Midnite
You need to overstand
You from the african continent
Just how the black American, stand up
Truly is your brother man
Had they dehumanized and taken your name
Had they fed you swine and fed you shame
Today you would be just the same, stand up
As the people you disrespect and disdain
You have been brainwashed to call each other bushman...
