Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me cant lose, Me never lose
Yeaah, Reggae Vibes
Me cant lose, Me never lose
A the highest me choose

All this time
All this time
Marijuana Sensimilla on my mind

Yeah Yeah

All this time
All this time

Weh day me deh a me weed bush
Fi go water me kush
But when me take a look
Badness babylon a push

Me make a draw, tek a cough
Babylon see me naw laugh
And me go rock & pop off
Sittn wid the mouth weh cut off

Babylon a draw card
Me no want dem in a me yard
Dem work fi reward
Dem a fight ganja hard

Just tru a spliff
Babylon start a rift
Jah Jah give we as a gift
Crack & cocoaine me naw sniff

All this time




All this time
Marijuana Sensimilla on my mind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ginjah's song All This Time is a testimony to the artist's love for marijuana, also known as Sensimilla in Jamaica. The chorus line "All this time, Marijuana Sensimilla on my mind" explains Ginjah's love for the herb, which has been a significant part of the reggae culture. In the first verse, Ginjah emphasizes his faith in his abilities, "Me cant lose, Me never lose, A the highest me choose." He asserts his confidence and fearlessness, indicating that he will never lose, and he chooses only the highest standards for himself.


The second verse tells a scenario where Ginjah is attending to his marijuana plantations. He portrays that Babylon, a term used for the police force, is pushing badness in the area, and this is a common occurrence in Jamaica. When Ginjah inhales the smoke from his weed, he coughs, but Babylon does not find it amusing, leading to a confrontation. The artist is not fazed by the police's actions and decides to stand for what he believes in, ganja - a Jamaican term for marijuana.


Overall, the lyrics of "All This Time" are a homage to Jamaica's marijuana culture, where the herb has been a part of the Rastafarian faith and reggae culture. Ginjah uses his lyrics to express his love for marijuana while also standing for one's beliefs in the face of persecution from authorities. Moreover, the song is a classic example of the role of reggae music in highlighting social and cultural issues in Jamaica.
