God bless everyone listening to this conscious chune....

alright, well i am a musician and i am performing this song on an acoustic guitar. i am foreign bwoy (USA) so i dont try to put on any jamaican accent when i play reggae and i like to sort of put in words that my audience will understand (propa english dem a speak)

i love this song and i want my american and european friends to overstand the words. i'm cool with everything with exception to lyric:

Mi nuh wah fi pree nobody fi dem links

I dont want to pray anybody for their....... what is links? what does this really mean? how would you say this if you were from the states?

my idea is "I don't wish bad things on anybody", i dont know.

thank you if you can help me


also, probably the most important: badmind = jealosy, envy, (any type of negative thought, and in this song mostly hating people for having something that you don't)

Good choice!

This is a wonderful tune produced by Paul "Cash Flow" Mitchell, also one of the best tracks from Reggae Gold 2010 (VP Records).

(sorry, but can't help with lyrics

Thanks Pavle. But what I still don't understand is "fi dem links."
