Anthony B Lyrics
Equal rights and justice we speak for
Hotter fire, red, Judgement come yo yo
Chorus:

Cause dem say me get braver
And a me dem caan get rid of
No care how dem fight we wid di media
Dem caan cut the speed ya
Cause a me dem fraid of
And a me dem caan get rid of
No care how dem fight we wid di media
Dem caan cut the speed ya
Commissioner Forbes me a talk to you fuss
too much innocent ghetto youth skull a bust
Hold off you cow boys dem a kick up rumpus
Seems like dem a play another one bite the dust
From we bun politics the ghetto youth dem stop fuss
Come back fi you guns whey a gather rust
Out a you heart we a go take out the puss
Haile King Selassie I you know is a must
Me bun Hostel and haile Marcus
Chorus
Tell the Government Jamaica house me come for
Cause we want some truth and rights defender
Back part a di ghetto give that to Sizzla
All country mi give to Louie Culture
Dem a go clean out the heathen wid di ole canalina
Out a Tivoli we a go move Seaga
In a him seat we a go put in Muta
Jamaica want a winner, don't want no quitter
We a go move PJ put in Babatunde Whiter
Think me done talk me gone little
Chorus
Ghetto youth open you eyes and rise up with the living
Cause the leaders go out in a ism and schism
Americanize fi kill of we tourism yo
Dem don't like we true we bun counsel and bun M.P.
Dem a bring segregation no unity
Pure promise bout yah and no loyalty
When yu fight dem war you gone in a G.P.
Chorus
Every politician go under Rastaman banner
Watch dem a fight over Rastaman colour
One hold pon di green, one pon di red, one pon di yellow
We a go bruk dem knuckle
Police gi me back di ganja leaf out a you belt buckle
Now dem a bruk like bottle
Over the years rastaman dem a hackle and tackle
Watch out and mi bend dem nozzle

Anthony B is the stage name of Keith Blair (born March 31, 1976), a Jamaican musician.
Blair grew up in rural Clarks Town in the northwestern parish of Trelawny. His deeply religious family life (his mother was a Seventh-day Adventist and his grandmother a Revivalist) imbued him with a profound spirituality. During his youth, his favorite singers were reggae legends Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer, musicians who strongly influenced his own style.

Blair grew up in rural Clarks Town in the northwestern parish of Trelawny. His deeply religious family life (his mother was a Seventh-day Adventist and his grandmother a Revivalist) imbued him with a profound spirituality. During his youth, his favorite singers were reggae legends Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer, musicians who strongly influenced his own style. Peter Tosh's influence can definitely be heard in Anthony B's vocal delivery and revolutionary stance.
Anthony B adopted Rastafarian beliefs as a teenager, a decision which was not well-received by his family. The stubborn and determined Anthony B refused to give up his new religion and his dreadlocks and moved to the home of his aunt and uncle in the Kingston suburb, Portmore.
While attending high school, Anthony B debuted as a deejay for the local sound system, Shaggy Hi-Power. In 1988, he befriended reggae artists such as Determine, Mega Banton, Ricky General and Terror Fabulous.
At this point in the reggae industry, singing "slack" songs about women was the popular thing to do. Anthony B did not believe in degrading women and chose to pen politically-slanted songs rather than so-called "gyal chunes." He hooked up with Little Devon the Half Pint sound-a-like singer he made his debut single "The Living is Hard" on the Wizard label in 1993. Anthony B tried many different producers but found that none of them fit his style of music. Finally, Anthony B teamed up with Richard "Bello" Bell, creating hits such as Fire Pon Rome, Raid Di Barn, Rumour, and Repentance Time. Anthony B's 1996 debut album Real Revolutionary was highly acclaimed in the reggae community. In late 1997, Anthony B released Universal Struggle which showed that Anthony B had a consistent, high-calibre talent. Anthony B has released a large number of albums since that time including 1999's Seven Seals and 2004's Untouchable which featured collaborations with artists including Wyclef Jean.
Anthony B tours extensively in Europe and North America and is known for his fiery, high-energy performances.
Anthony B is a member of the Bobo Ashanti branch of the Rastafarian movement. "Bobo Dreads", as they are known, are recognizable by their long robes and turbans. The strong Afrocentric pride and the other Rastafarian beliefs (or "overstandings" as Rastafarians prefer to call them) which Anthony B holds are reflected in his songs.
