Kontraband (feat. Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley)
I'm way up
I'm way up
I'm way up
I'm way up
I'm way up
I'm way up
Kontraband, is it the master plan?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
It's taking up the farmer's land
Kontraband (I'm way up)
How it pass the border scan
Kontraband (I'm way up)
And end up in your daughter hand?
Kontraband, now, what's in that recipe
Kontraband (I'm way up) that giving me the stress relief?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
Sell more than rice and peas
Kontraband (I'm way up), feels so damn good to me
When all these dutty dogs sniffing me
Pray to Jah, I didn't leave a one spliff on me
If they found one, they surely move swift on me
Family and friends will surely be missing me
Meanwhile, Gong is having that epiphany
I'm been searched by a squady named Tiffany (spread your feet)
The way she gurt me, me sup'n get stiff on me (mm-mm)
Still me slide through smooth like the shiffon be
As they are done searching, The Pyramid
They turn their attention to the Grammy Kid
Dealing with the Rasta like an invalid
Demonstrating how Babylon wicked
Weh dem ask 'bout?
Illegal substances, if these things we're packaging
Hell top a thing, shipping and the handling
These accusations are damaging
Dem say dem heard reggae artists trafficking
Kontraband, is it the master plan?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
Taking up the farmer's land
Kontraband (I'm way up)
How it pass the border scan
Kontraband (I'm way up)
And end up in your daughter hand?
Kontraband, now, what's in that recipe
(Kontraband) (I'm way up) that's giving me the stress relief?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
It sells more than rice and peas
Kontraband (I'm way up)
Feels so damn good to me (yo, yo, yo, yo)
There is some sirens approaching me
Call Kabaka, hope I didn't leave a roach on me
Everything is stashed right where it suppose to be
But if not, a bail you haffi post fi me
Bredda, mi just see your picture weh di poster be
It hang up 'pon the wall inna the grocery
No worry, the judge have a favour weh she owe for me
Mi got it covered like the suit weh me a throw 'pon me
Yeah, but K our face is no locally
Prrf, and the thing turn up totally
I know dem mus' smell a smoke on me
Can we defend the case vocally?
Well, based on the scope of the evidence
And how much dem gathering intelligence
Determine the charges you held against
For all the weight and the measurements of
Kontraband, is it the master plan?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
It's taking up the farmer's land
Kontraband (I'm way up)
How it pass the border scan
Kontraband (I'm way up)
And end up in your daughter hand?
Kontraband, now, what's in that recipe
(Kontraband) (I'm way up) that giving me the stress relief
Kontraband (I'm way up)
Sell more than rice and peas
Kontraband (I'm way up)
Feels so damn good to me
They're preeing how our companies
Bebble Rock and Ghetto Youths' just keeping company
Huh, now, the agents dem-a come fi we
Because kontraband is spreading 'cross the country
Deal, our records cleaner than laundry
Or a washing machine weh full a lingerie
So, we not even need no money laundering
If it go to court, we just appeal it like a tangerine
Yeah, but we can't pay the lawyer with no tambourine
The case kinda shaky like a tambourine
Now, we hot a road like a lava stream
Wha' happen if di jury full a drama queen?
Prr, yo, hold on deh, see mi lawyer just phoning me
"Mr. Pyramid, I heard that you been touring
And the Kontraband is soaring, and it's taking off globally
Is it sold out, or do you have a little more of it?"
Kontraband, is it the master plan?
Kontraband (I'm way up)
It's taking up the farmer's land
Kontraband (I'm way up)
How it pass the border scan
Kontraband (I'm way up)
And end up in your daughter hand?
Kontraband, now, what's in that recipe
