well, it's almost impossible to pick just a few. So talking about "categories" i like first of all "tuff "lyrics, you know, like Warnin from Max Romeo, Revolutionay dream from Pablo Moses, and some more in this way from The Toughest, Peter Tosh. I also enjoy those "cultural" lyrics, about iniquity, suffering and things like this. Justice, from The Meditations is one of my favs, or Mama say from The Heptones.
But you know bro, this is reggae and we love one another, so lyrics about brotherhood and hope, good vibes are also enjoyable to me. Call on you from Burning Spear, for instance.
What definetly i don't enjoy are those about slackness. i love my princess and respect here. no talk about homophoby on actual dancehall

I like that line from Michael Prophet: "Righteousness gonna destroy them" from the Love And Unity Song.

I've always liked the verse from BMW's "Bad Card"
I want to disturb my neighbor
'cause I'm feelin' so right
I want to turn up my disco
Blow dem to full watts tonight
