Konshens Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Naw sit down wid hand pon jaw
Bless ma plans almighty Jah
Jah, Jah, blessings in the morning
On the most high name am calling
Yea I'll be steaming in the evening
What a feeling
I wake up wid a meds like
Stand firm but when you walk you fi step lite
Never ever stop try till you get right
You gonna get fight from pagans
And dutty satan love try fi derail plan
But there is a story behind every great man
Rock stone weh tek pressure turn diamond
Am telling you this life is a tricky one
Yo should a never put yo faith in a any man
Suh every morning and nightly
Hold a reverence wid the almighty
Steaming, steady steaming
Likkle by likkle everything revealing
Positive medz in a mi head sealing
Suh yo naw si mi fall like a rotten tree lim
Wi work smart cause wi waan the bonus
Wi focus, plus Jah, Jah, love surround us
When I and I give praise
Every one a my days Jah stand by my side
Always a tell yo
This life is a tricky one
Yo should a never put yo faith in a any man
Suh every morning and nightly
Hold a reverence wid the almighty
In Konshens's song "Morning Meds," the artist takes us through his morning routine that allows him to start his day off right. The first line of the song suggests that Konshens starts his day by boiling tea with mint leaves, a soothing and refreshing concoction that helps him to relax and prepare for his day. He then talks about not just sitting idly by but blessing his plans with God, or "Jah," and asking for divine assistance in his endeavors.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of starting each day with gratitude and positive energy. Konshens talks about calling on the "most high" and feeling blessed in the morning. He brings up the idea of "meds," which is short for meditation or medication, suggesting that taking the time to center oneself and focus on positivity is vital in achieving success. He urges the youth to follow this practice and to walk a path of wisdom and light. He also acknowledges the presence of negativity in the form of "pagans" and "dutty satan" but encourages listeners to persevere through difficulty and turn pressure into diamonds.
The song highlights the importance of holding reverence for a higher power and focusing on positive energy to navigate life's challenges. Konshens's morning routine of tea, meditation, and seeking divine guidance serves as an example of how we can all start our day on the right foot.
