Stop, live in the moment
(Striving, fighting, watch the seeds that you’re sewing)
Stop, live in the moment
(Responsibilities. You know yuh gotta own ‘em)
Stop, live in the moment
(Take it day by day. Just stay in yuh zone then)
Stop, live in the moment
Live in the moment, stop!
Been so many places
In dis brief time on earth
One thing I’ve realized
We underestimate our worth
Debt fighting
Death biting
Minds moldable as clay
Re questing
No questions
Take heed to the words I say
Stop, live in the moment
(Striving, fighting, watch the seeds that you’re sewing)
Stop, live in the moment
(Responsibilities. You know yuh gotta own ‘em)
Stop, live in the moment
(Take it day by day. Just stay in yuh zone then)
Stop, live in the moment
Live in the moment, stop!
(Tennille Amor)
They say one in million reach heights
And I'm trying, I'm trying to make it but
Only one in a million survive
Because so many others are breaking
I'm over-analyzing, over strategizing
Over thinking everything I'm feeling frustrated
So I better listen to Caleb
Stop, live in the moment
(Striving, fighting, watch the seeds that you’re sewing)
Stop, live in the moment
(Responsibilities. You know yuh gotta own ‘em)
Stop, live in the moment
(Take it day by day. Just stay in yuh zone then)
Stop, live in the moment
Live in the moment, stop!
Ghetto youths in a crater
And there is no hope
Tell dem tings will get better
But dey feel issa joke
Reality contradicts
All dat they’ve ever known
And to dem dis tune
Is just another clone
It’s as though (stutter)
It’s as though
D record ah life scratch
Shell like it crack
However it’s time to hatch
Babylon say lack
I say there is no match
For d greatness within you
And dats just the facts
Ah know yuh feel it in yuh core
So wuh yuh waiting for?
Just fly through the door
It’s your turn to soar
And if the door is closed
Then jump tru d window
And if the wind doh take yuh
Then find another path
Break down the walls
Put yuh feet in d grass
Forward trodding
Not the woes of the past
Buh doh get caught up
In the rocket ship blast
Stop, live in the moment
(Striving, fighting, watch the seeds that you’re sewing)
Stop, live in the moment
(Responsibilities. You know yuh gotta own ‘em)
Stop, live in the moment
(Take it day by day. Just stay in yuh zone then)
Stop, live in the moment
Live in the moment, stop!

I think you should relax
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Even scaled the wall
Why don’t you just sit back
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Fulfilled your call
Moon walk into this verse
No need for rehearsal
Hart of a Jackson
Matter fact let me flip it
A Reversal
Cm Jackson initially
Guided by the Messiah
No conspiracy
Crazy revelation
Hart stuck to us forever
It’s unbelievable what you’ve sustained
Like holy cow, it’s insane
Tougher than leather
Mama you’re great
So please say cheese
Dedicate this tune to thee
While you’re still breathing
‘Cus why wait?
Now’s the time.
Seize the moment.
That’s what you always told me.
Left the life of crime
So that you wouldn’t cry
When you hold me
Now I think about your love
When I’m gone
And feeling lonely
You never failed me
&
I Thank God for that
I Thank You for that
I thank God & and you for that
I think you should relax
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Even scaled the wall
Why don’t you just sit back
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Fulfilled your call
Heart of a lioness
Now ah got to profess
Have to admit
That you’re simply the best
Epitome of finesse
And I can’t express
How everything you do
Is sheer excellence
So I’m gonna love yuh
‘Til we’re both no longer breathing
So grateful for everything
All of the spiritual teaching
Not just preaching
but consistently leading
Burn the words of the haters
That were always misleading
Still you pushed through
And just kept on feeding
Nourishment for the soul
To ma innermost being
Your example 1000 books
That I’ll forever be reading
Now it’s time to reap from the harvest
That you spent yuh life seeding
You never failed me
&
I Thank God for that
I Thank You for that
I thank God & and you for that
I think you should relax
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Even scaled the wall
Why don’t you just sit back
You’ve done it all!
Run the race with such grace
Fulfilled your call
Relax

D world eh even know dat mih sickah dan most ah dem
Ah contract lyrical zika or ebola when
Dey come round me me ah hit dem like some mosquito
Vampire blood sucka we need yuh to go

And although negativity exists
I choose to live my life in bliss
Hope yuh got the gist
Ya know ah just cyah quit

Water electrolytes and enzymes
Come tru with passion

There’s never been a better time
I see you rising up with wisdom
So raise yuh voices to the sky
Go Away!
We doh need you and never did
Nyamin up the poor man’s food
Babylon you’re a pig
Gooo awayyy
We doh need you and never did
Nyamin up the poor man’s food
Only acting like a pig
Shout it from the mountains
To the beach and to the city
We marching as one with
Dig nity
Cus we see clearly
You got no sympathy
Doh try to stop we
It’s been a long time coming
Revolution sounds
So ah keep on strumming
Positive vibes
So we keep on drumming
Boots laced up
So we keep on running
But yuh not dat cunning
Tink yuh sly like a fox
With yuh pointy shoes
In d middle of d weak
And yuh weekend crocs
Bank account increasing
Neighbourhoods in pieces
Look between the creases
But yuh just cyah see it
Need a new prescription
From dis generation
We the healers
Will take the patients
But it takes patience
Good ting we got it
You’re a Cancer
That we spotted
So we say...
Gooo awayyy
We doh need you and never did
Nyamin up the poor man’s food
Babylon you’re a pig
Gooo awayyy
We doh need you and never did
Nyamin up the poor man’s food
Only acting like a pig
Go Away!

Lost & cyah be found
Head without a crown
Wandering through the town
Eyes keep gazing now
Don’t care what dey whispah
Atmosphere’s getting crisper
Colder than an arctic river
I get drowned out
But then I feel d riddim
Somehow at that moment
I’m no longer...
I’m no longer
LOST! x4
Leh we...
Take it to another level
Playback d tune nah
In 440
Dey say the truth hertz ya
Increase the frequencies
Unified with nature
In this day and age
I doh need to be yuh teacher
It’s astounding
These sounds resounding
Rhythmic vibrating
Atomic creating
Used to be a frown ting
But dah frown dun tun up
Now it’s a joy ting &
Lost & cyah be found
Head without a crown
Wandering through the town
Eyes keep gazing now
Don’t care what dey whispah
Atmosphere’s getting crisper
Colder than an arctic river
Ah get drowned out
But then I feel d riddim
Somehow at that moment
I’m no longer...
I’m no longer
LOST! x4

Dahlin you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Pretty woman you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Drowning in a wave of emotions
Cus ah tink we share a vibes
But I cyah tel
‘Cus dahlin sometimes
Is rel explosive
Den yuh leave me by d gully side
What am I gonna do
With dis change a yuh tide
But i’m a kinda fella
Well ah doh rely surf
Yuh say your grass is greener
So den a step on to yuh turf
Tings were going nicely
Getting kinda spicy
And I don’t take dat lightly
Now my mind wanna fight me
(A wonder if my mind tryna fight me...?)
Dahlin you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Pretty woman you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Send you a message
Just to ask how yuh doin’?
Maybe pick you up
So we can go groovin’
Got me under your spell
Which potion are you brewing?
Beer vibes when we lime
But it’s kinda confusing
Maybe I’m blind
Or in too deep
I shoulda listened when
Jr Gong warned me
Got me like a Pop song
Feeling kinda corny
But I think I’m finally starting to see...
(A wonder if my mind tryna fight me...?)
Dahlin you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Pretty woman you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I am yours
Intelligent woman you’re my dream come true
But I don’t think that I’m yours
(My dream come true, you’re my dream come true)
I don't really know if I am yours...

Trust Me

Started in the spring
Walked off the ferry
& I saw your smile
Thought to myself
‘She looks different...
Go say hi’
Decided not to
Walked away to
The mercantile
But then fate couldn’t keep us apart
You walked over and
spoke to a different guy
(Ragga)
Much to my surprise
You actually thought he was me
Awake for days
Days like 3
I found it hard to believe
But then
We locked eyes, laughed & started to play
Hours of chemistry
Nuff electricity
It was clear to see
I had met an anomaly
Gosh I need to sleep
Buh if yuh see she
Dancing in the black dress
Quisha lend she
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me
Need you to trust me
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me
Dancing in the cabin
Snoozing in the Westie
Go ahead & cry in my arms
I’ll hold you gently
This is unconventional
Just know you’re my bestie
This is all new
We can call her Nova 💫
Stars shine bright
Over SSI & Castara
Fulford to Lambeau
Yuh done know I’ll take yuh
On a crazy adventure
From place to place we’ll venture...
& when the road gets tough
Woman ah beg yuh please doh worry
And even when I’m gone
Know that I’ll be back in a hurry
Ah know tings eh perfect
& for my downfalls I am sorry
But I said through it all
I will be there, Oh Honey
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me
Need you to trust me
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me
Trust me, trust me,
I’ma need you to trust me...
& when the road gets tough
Woman ah beg yuh please doh worry
And even when I’m gone
Know that I’ll be back in a hurry
Ah know tings eh perfect
& for my downfalls I am sorry
But I said through it all
I will be there, Oh Honey
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me
Need you to trust me
We don’t really know
What’s about to happen
I’ma need you trust me

*chants*
Can somebody please inform me
What have they done with our lives?
Oh humankind
Oh humankind
I see brothers falling
Mothers are bawlin
All the politicians saying
‘Tighten up your belt’
Then raise their pay
While all our people fade away...
*chants*
Can somebody please inform me
What have they done with our lives?
Oh humankind
Oh humankind
Privilege;
Let’s talk about it for a second
‘No I don’t have any!’
That’s what you reckon?
That’s what you figure?
It wasn’t me that pulled that trigger
Yuh say
Just another ‘ni&$ah’
Although you wore
a cotton t shirt
Every night that yuh touched her
She says #metoo
But according to your status
‘It’s just another fad’
Not that bad
All lives matter
But mostly yours...
Until the day that
Yuh let it reach yuh core
Then together we can soar
But right now we’re sore
From climbing the mountains
You placed
Can’t you tell?
From flying while dodging
The bullets of your spell
P R I V I L E G E
PRIVILEGE
Can somebody please inform me
What have they done with our lives?
Oh humankind
Oh humankind

Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That ragga music brings healing
(So we sing again)
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That Jah Jah music brings healing
I remember back in the day
In coaching school
Football we used to play
from a distance
I heard it
coming over the
‘Hills and Valleys’ too
A sweet tune
A liberating vibration
Kinda ting
Dat have d power
To cause eternal elevation
So we train our minds
Tune in d proper station
Bus another healthy one
Send it to the right destination
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That ragga music brings healing
(So we sing again)
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That Jah Jah music brings healing
Track7 (Musical breakdown)
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That ragga music brings healing
(So we sing again)
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
‘Cus I know
That Jah Jah music brings healing
(Buckman Coe)
In times of trouble
Turn to the bass, mids and the treble
Rhythm of the heartbeat will fix you up on the double
I know often need to get out of my own head
Drop into my body let the music guide me instead
So like ABBA I thank you for the music 😂
I give thanks for the songs that I’m singing
Raise my praises for the joy that they’re bringing
With Caleb Hart and Track 7, sonic comrades in the making
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
(Incredible feeling)
'cus I know
That ragga music brings healinggg
(Ragga music always brings the healing)
So we sing again...
Oh it’s an incredible feeling
(Incredible feeling)
That Jah Jah music brings healinggg
(Jah Jah music always brings the healing)

Who I Be
03:36

I am
Who I be
I am
Who I be
Steady try to change we
Attempt to re-arrange me
Walk in dey place and dey shoo me
Like a Caleb dat is mangey
Thought I was a parasite
And even now sometimes I might (mite)
Nah nah
Forget that thought cus I realized
That I just can’t be CATegorized
I am
Who I be
I am
Who I be
Born inna d prairies
Grew up in sweet Tobago
Things weren’t always easy
For dis likkle youth from Lambeau
At times life was scary
Circumstances try to tear me
But the fear I chose to let go
So I say let’s go...
Switch it, kick it
Like ah playing football fuh
Bishops one more time
Give a
snippet, of my life
Like ah got one more rhyme
I’m just being me
No need to battle
For the title
‘best of all time’
That’s already taken
I’m just reflecting
In retrospect
That’s something I can’t neglect
So I don’t pay my respects
I pray my respects
I pray my respects
I pray my respects
I am
Who I be
I am
Who I be
I am LOVE
& I’ve created you to love
Those were the words
That You told me!
I am LOVE
& I’ve created you to love
That is the truth
You show me
I am
Who I be
I am
Who I be...
