SMOKE THE WEED
Collie Buddz; Snoop Lion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Smoke the weed, everyday
Don't smoke the seeds, no way
Smoke the weed, hey
Smoke the weed

Younger generation
Young boys and girls
Be careful of the seeds you show
If you wan fi see a strong tree grow
You gotta put them for the future
Show respect don't neglect mother nature
All the pollution in this world
Me just can't stand it
Global warming make the whole world panic
Take care of mother earth cause ah she be the planet
Youth man don't go astray
Fresh trees, young seeds all tryin' to find the light
Stretchin' out their limbs to the sun, got them right
Help them keep their life will trap
Watch out for life like satellite
Them winds will stop and go like a traffic light
Many obstacles to overcome in the city life
Making sure they stay pure, teach them whats wrong from right
Seed brings forth new life

Smoke the weed, everyday
Don't smoke the seeds, no way
Smoke the weed
Smoke the weed

Hey are you on your own
Six AM inna di morning
When mi just ah wake up
Stick the peer pockets been dallin'
The baba hurt me break up
Holding my fight the herb me cyan stand it
Me solely see babylon can't come step on it
Mi ah mix di weed with ah grey goose and tonic
Rude man don't stop all di chronic, everyday
Mi Roll me the weed up
Take off you shot then me mix a couple breed up
Can't stand it when some boy go, the seed up
We no do that if they cheat up
And me seh herb herb what we all prefer
And my juggly top street girl
And di youth a say weed is life
Weed is reality

Smoke the weed, everyday
Don't smoke the seeds, no way
Smoke the weed, hey
Smoke the weed

Early light papa you damn my supper
Asking my pop off hot like the summer
You can't never understand why we live the life
You would never recognize unless you see the fire in my eyes

I'm burrying the man like every single day
Black birds in the sky can't get a break
The smoke is my gun that's how I blow them away
Music is my weapon rewind it let it play
Babylon the police sun set all day
They call me Snoop Lion I smoke everyday

Look granded they see
Watch them grow a new breed
Cultivating these streets
Recycle, carries on

And on and on and on it don't stop
The tic tac of the universal clock
To the bang bang boogie the love streaming through me
And the smoke that wait while we procreate

Smoke the weed, everyday
Don't smoke the seeds, no way
