Be Blessed

by Junior Kelly

Lyrics
Jah!
Hott 'n' dem a send dem yah blessings yah
Yeah
If you want to be blessed
And don't you go settle for less
Junor Kelly, endorse

If you wanna be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk
And be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk

Yo
Me no waan know who a bussy
No waan know who a shippy
But all me know the cemeteries a full bad bull
Lots of youth lef' off the titty
Him run gone grab the Uzi 'pon him waist and a shoot up the place

But if the kids can't play inna the park
Can't walk after dark
Upon you curses, curses
And this yah one here worth your while
Lef' upon your face you put a smile
And stop wrinkle and hurt it, hurt it
You no see badness outta sight
Go look a work a mind your child, child

And if you wanna be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk
And be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a

Can't go a party and we can't rave
'Cause certain fools with gun they won't behave

Nuff trigger happy when dem see friend dem a hype
And after youth dem done fi pick off a stripe

Nuff nuh brought up, drag up, dem force right
Dem nuh right
So me know dem bwoy deh Jah Jah ago smite
So clean up your act because the time is near at hand
And don't you follow no friend
Take no bootsing from no one
And don't say, "If me did know" when judge done pass the sentence
Remember inna the grave there is no repentance
Nuff a groupie
Dem stupidie

And if you wanna be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk
And be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk

There is no pardon when you take a life
With a gun or a knife

So youth man no take no boots nor bribe
I see the blood up in your eyes
This is what I man surmise
Say you nah take no compromise
I wonder who full you of lies
Make you not acting wise
Pon the serpent under disguise
Me no waan fi know the puppet
Waan fi know who pull the string
The man behind the curtain with the sinister living

The man weh a give the youth dem the wrong song fi sing

Youths with the gun, well a you me a blame
Say you wild and you just can't tame

Well if you wanna be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk
And be blessed
Give the gun a rest
Put the artillery 'pon pause because
Hopefulness is the only way to step
Full time you give the violence a walk

Yo
Me no waan know who a bussy
Me no waan know who a shippy
But all me know the cemeteries a full bad bull
Lots of youth lef' off the titty
