Inna Di Red
Stephen Marley Lyrics

I didn't get no sleep at all last night
My shoulders were as heavy as lead
I felt something was just not right
I had to roll a little spliff for my head

So I took a walk inside
Talked to I, I self
Trying to ease these pains of mine
Oh Jah give I strength

And if a egg, natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red
Rasta inna it, natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red

Yeah, yah yah
Yah, yah

Eh, now I'm in a irie place
Now I'm in a irie space
Now I man can I ditate
Free ourselves from all that hate
Now I'm in an irie state
Now I man can I ditate
Free ourselves from all that hate
Bless them with Jah love and grace

And if a egg, natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red
Rasta inna it, (egg), natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red

Yeah, yeah

Eh, I didn't get no sleep at all first night, no
My shoulders we as heavy as lead
I felt Something was just not right
Had to Roll a little zig for my head
Yeah
So I took a walk inside
Talk to I, I self
Free I from this frame of mind
Oh Jah give I strength

And if a egg, natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red
C'mon man and if a (egg), natty inna di red
And if a egg, natty inna di red

Yeah, yah yah
Oh, yah, yah,yah, yah

None shall escape Jah judgment
Jah judgments gonna call on you
Red eye, red eye, red eye
Red eye, you're gonna turn to blue
None shall escape Jah judgment
Jah judgments gonna fall on you
Red eye, red eye, red eye
Red eye, you're gonna turn to blue

Yeah, yah, yah
Yah, uah
Yah, yah

Outro (Kids):
So when we call him Rastafari
Watch how weak heart tremble
Heathen nah like Jah name

Jo-Ann Greene writes about "Mind Control" AllMusic.com: "Stephen has continued to grow, adding new sounds and styles to his repertoire over the years. A conduit to the past and a bridge to the future, his music -- like his father's -- sounds timeless: reggae that embraces the world."

2004 he started the 27-city Bob Marley Roots, Rock, Reggae Festival tour with his four brothers and sons of Bob – Ziggy, Julian, Damian and Ky-Mani – each of whom have their own professional recording careers. The tour was the first time the brothers have officially performed together on stage.

Every February in Miami, Marley and his brothers perform at his family's annual Caribbean Festival in honour of their late father Bob Marley.
