lyrics

No one can pollute my soul, now mi deya pon di control
No one can pollute my soul,
no bother bout di glitter and di gold
Mi seh no matter whe dem say
and no matter whe dem pay
No one can pollute my soul, my soul...

More time ina mi life it kinda hard enuh
fi walk straight and wid mi head tall enuh
dem seh yuh ago be di next big star enuh
voice a tune yuh ago mek it to di charts enuh
While mi know seh di music jus a start fi grow
and di lyrics whe mi sing still have far fi go
fi reach a stage whe mi truly seh dem badd enuh
pon dis ya path nuff work fi do
And I feel these expectations pressuring me
they won‘t let me be free mek mi fret and believe dat mi
haffi walk di road whe dem a see mi
like di fools dem whe deh pon TV
So while I - see these developments it kinda creepy
mechanisms ina di market dutty like fieces - YUCK!
So I move to where mi inner peace be
between blue rivers and green leaves

No one can pollute my soul, now mi deya pon di control
No one can pollute my soul,
no bother bout di glitter and di gold
Mi seh no matter whe dem say
and no matter whe dem pay
No one can pollute my soul, my soul...

Ina di hills whe mi a step
fi cool dung mi nerves and fi hold a proper meds
fi release di pressure and fi relieve di stress
fi free up mi mind and fi tek a deep breath
Cah mi nah waan fi bother bout di fortune and di fame
then get lost in the game and get caught in mainstream
but what if disya certain way whe mi say
a dem say whe mi pave, is it lame and a shame?
And what if, dis a whe mi heart truly aim for
is it the path whe mi should stay pon?
Stay strong, march wid mi cape on straight on
Will I still be singing the same songs?
Sometimes mi faith mi a wait for
and mi inner strength mi a pray for
so right ya now mi ago shout dis straight,
nah doubt dis mayne
nobody coulda out dis flame!

No one can pollute my soul, now mi deya pon di control
No one can pollute my soul,
no bother bout di glitter and di gold
Mi seh no matter whe dem say
and no matter whe dem pay
No one can pollute my soul, my soul…

Focus on di energy ina mi heart
Erase di expectations out of mi thoughts
Now thru these ruff times I a gather all mi powers
keep di fyah blazing on and on
Because a you decide yuh destiny
and just a we alone know whe best fi we
so when your spirit down and its about to break
look ina yuh self and mek dem know seh…

No one can pollute my soul, now mi deya pon di control
No one can pollute my soul,
no bother bout di glitter and di gold
Mi seh no matter whe dem say
and no matter whe dem pay
No one can pollute my soul, my soul…

about

Bassplate Records Bologna, Italy

Sound system and reggae fanatics from long time, we started Bassplate Records because we felt the need to try to leave some music that can pass the test of time, positive music that everybody can listen and dance to, music intended to be heard on sound system, as reggae music is meant to be.

Enjoy it loud!
