one upon a time, just like in the nursery rhyme, before pig turned to swine... i used to wear my fear on my face like a shield like a mask... and everyone would think me cool and deadly. :: this entire album is brilliant
I would just like to say that for me, this is more than 5 star reggae music from LKJ, it is something, in my book never heard of before. All the classical instruments brought in, which, as far as I know, have never been used before. Thank you LKJ, a friend of mine from Isle Maurice introduced me to your music although I am from the Caribbean and I have never, ever looked back! Your use of such classical instruments makes your music so "classy" yet down to earth, never have I seen this before, , this is just incredible I. I never really thought that reggae music could almost be compared to classic music! Thank you Maestro and all the best, a fan forever!
So true. It captures all that was still sincere about the fight in humanity to be free. LKJ is on of the last true reggae artist that has something to say that is not a cliche.
I love LKJ too. No artist from any genre has consistently bought me so much comfort. Been listening to him since i was 17. I'm 55 this year and i still listen to him on a regular basis. I would love to meet him.
Once upon a time just like in a nursery rhyme before piggy turn swine me did wear for my fear on my face like a shield like a mask an everybody think me cool and deadlyNothing you could have said would have make me take it off and if you get me nervous I woulda just laughed it off an everybody think me cool and deadlyBut not so long ago just like in a picture show where the hero gets a blow me spirit gets vexed an me get so restless that me get careless and go bare me skinny chestMe never even think that things are make outta glass that the whole wide world coulda see right down to the feeling in my heart how them twist-up how them tie-up how them tight-up oh my heart how it cut-up how it craw-up how it scar-upIt's a hard act to master you know this smiling and skining your teeth when your heart swell up so till you feel it gonna bust when you can't find the rhyme to fit the beat when you can't find the answer for the puzzle complete.So me take off me mask and start for wear dark glass but every so often me have to take it off and every now and then me find me last you ever see me trial see me crosses?

qué temazo, joder
Once upon a time
just like in a nursery rhyme
before piggy turn swine
me did wear
for my fear
on my face
like a shield
like a mask
an everybody think me cool and deadlyNothing you could have said
would have make me take it off
and if you get me nervous
I woulda just laughed it off
an everybody think me cool and deadlyBut not so long ago
just like in a picture show
where the hero gets a blow
me spirit gets vexed
an me get so restless
that me get careless
and go bare me skinny chestMe never even think
that things are make outta glass
that the whole wide world coulda see
right down to the feeling in my heart
how them twist-up
how them tie-up
how them tight-up
oh my heart
how it cut-up
how it craw-up
how it scar-upIt's a hard act to master you know
this smiling and skining your teeth
when your heart swell up so till you feel it gonna bust
when you can't find the rhyme to fit the beat
when you can't find the answer for the puzzle complete.So me take off me mask
and start for wear dark glass
but every so often
me have to take it off
and every now and then
me find me last
you ever
see me trial
see me crosses?
