Beres Hammond Lyrics

Trus mi man
Believe me, my friend

Wherever it is, we must find it

A fi find it, sing fada sing
We must find it, let's sing and rejoice

Pull up da vibes that you're playing
Bring back the good vibes you were playing earlier

Can you play some more, can you play some more
Can you please continue playing more music?

Lif it up, jack it up, pull it up, come again now
Crank up the volume and let's dance again

Without di dancehall, a whe we woulda do
What would we do without the dancehall?

Reggae muzik call, you must ansa to
Reggae music is calling, you must answer

Wine up, jump up, when you hear sweet reggae
Dance to the sweet sounds of reggae music

Buju Banton and Beres Hammond are telling everyone to go ahead and enjoy themselves

Everyone a do di dance weh dem love
Everyone is dancing the way they love

In dis yah dancehall no form a grude
There is no animosity in this dancehall

Greet everyone dat enter wit a hug
Greet everyone who enters with a hug

Come spread out and listen to some sweet rubba-dub
Come and relax while listening to some sweet rubba-dub music

Scary and di one name Skellion
Scary and Skellion are around

Dem know every ting weh a gwaan
They know everything that's going on

I'm going to corner them to find out if my friends are there

Fi find out if mi bredren dem ina di lawn
To see if my friends are outside

Everywhere I look, people are dancing

To ratid, I see girls a get wild
Wow, I see girls getting wild

Selector a spin muzik versatile
The DJ is playing versatile music

Dem wan tun dung we sound and bruk we vibes down
They want to bring down our sound and vibes

A who dem a try turn in a clown
Who are they trying to make a fool of?

Dancehall full up and mi caan get a chance
The dancehall is crowded and I can't get a chance to dance

How mi ago find mi sistren ina di dance
How am I going to find my female friends in the dance?

Muzik a play, people jump and prance
Music is playing and people are jumping and dancing

Bruk out, you selector boy
Start playing some good music, DJ!

Di whol dance a cry, di whol dance a cry
The whole dance is calling out

I repeat, the whole dance is calling out

Caan get a chance fi mek a likkle step
Can't get a chance to make a small step

Dancehall ram a mi say no place nuh lef
The dancehall is so crowded that there is no space to move

A police come a turn it off di vibes dem waan fi wreck
The police came and turned off the music that people were enjoying

And dis is Buju Banton mi say no respeck

You're making me dance in a corner

Can't express how mi glad come, yah
I can't express how happy I am to be here

A neva seen so much good vibes flow
I have never seen so many good vibes around

Everyone inside is like family
Everyone inside feels like family

And every massive is here
And everyone is here

And tonight we don't care

Kill di violence dead, mek we rock it instead
Let's stop the violence and dance instead

Jump and palve everyman get red now
Jump and have fun and let's all enjoy ourselves
