New Day Dawn
Gentleman Lyrics

If love was in your heart
If you had love and compassion in your heart

You coulda find a way to brighter days
You would find a way to a happier future

It s not to late to start
You can still make positive changes

Do it as a new day dawn a new day born
Approach it as starting fresh with a new day

Be smart
Be wise and sensible

No badda try to hate or complicate
Don't try to create conflict or trouble

You re tearing us apart
You are causing division and discord

Can you see a new day dawn a new day born
Can you envision a new beginning?

Instead a help the people burden get lighter
Instead of helping to ease people's troubles

You have dem a train and a turn dem ina sniper
You are manipulating and exploiting them for violent purposes

Have dem a die fa the things wha you lie fa
You are causing them to die for things that you have lied about

Your poison is more potent than a viper
The harm you cause is more deadly than a snake's venom

People don t make that destroy cypher
People should not engage in destructive behavior

So we hafi big up all the freedom fighter
We applaud those fighting for freedom and justice

Who a move righter and a shine brighter
Who are striving to do what is right and make progress

If unno agree me seh flash up unno lighter
If you agree with me, show your support

So many bridges dem break down
So many connections and relationships have been destroyed

So many monuments of inspiration dem take down
So many symbols of hope and inspiration have been removed

Look how far dem hate grown
Look at how much hate has grown and spread

Now dem wanna take it to mars a place of unknown
Now they want to take it to an unexplored and uncertain place

So me wonder what s the next round
So I wonder what the next development will be

After the people dem just done vote and put dem x down
After people have just voted and expressed their choice

From alaska to cape town
From Alaska to Cape Town

Babylon a get shake down
Oppressive systems are being challenged and dismantled

Everybody coulda nice everywhere
Everyone could be kind everywhere

And everybody shoulda nice everywhere
And everyone should strive to be kind everywhere

Asking me what s the matter
Asking me what the issue is

My replay is that everyone wants to live better
My reply is that everyone wants to improve their lives

Everyone wants to live proper
Everyone wants to live well

You got the choice tell me what do you prefer
You have a choice - what do you want?

Stop fighting each other
Stop creating conflicts and divisions

Member me seh brother you are brother me say from another mother
Remember that we are brothers, even if not born to the same mother

You shoulda love one another
You should love one another

Each one teach one help one climb up the ladder
We should all strive to mentor and help each other progress
