Mission Songtext

von Damian Marley

Well hear mi nuh
All Jamaica
(J-A-M-A-I-C-A)
Say is not a sweet sixteen
And how unno just past 20
Jamaica, a half century

I'm on a mission, today is the day
Start your ignition, lets take it away
We gotta rise, gotta rise, gotta rise
We gotta rise (to the top), gotta rise (to the top) gotta rise
Straight to the top
Jump, jump, jump we 5oth,
Jump, jump, jump, jump let's celebrate So hear mi now
Gold and green and black
One likkle dot any time you look pon di map
But check it hip- hop, r&b and pop
Reggae up inna di lot
Ah 958 pon di clock di whole world shock
And is a Jamaican do dat
From di white beaches to a di blue mountain top
Our shores weh di whole world flock

We're on
A mission, today is the day
Start your ignition, lets take it away
We gonna rise, gonna rise, we're gonna rise
We gotta rise, gotta rise, gotta rise
Straight to the top
Jump, jump, jump we 5oth,
Jump, jump, jump, jump let's celebrate Oh my how
Time fly by so quickly
When mi tink how we jus reach 50
Now mi proud till mi eye get misty
Rise up an we nah move risky
Now the island so small is a mystery
How we mean so much to world history
Paul Bogle to Garvey to Wally to starting a worldwide rasta ministry

We're on a mission, today is the day
Start your ignition, let's take it away
We gonna rise, gonna rise, we gonna rise
We gonna rise, gonna rise, we gonna rise
Straight to the top
Jump, jump, jump we 5oth,
Jump, jump, jump, jump let's celebrate [Wayne Marshall/Shaggy/Tifa
Wave di flag cah we proud ah we country
Mi so glad say we reach half a century
Black green and gold
Represent the sun the land the people hopes
Our people the strength of the land that
Half a century we work for the plan that
Brighter future for where we belong
Raise by the blessing of real strong ooman
Eternal father bless di woman
I am proud to be Jamaican
Respect goes to my sunshine girls
Watch Miss Jamaica go tun Miss World
____ and physical beauty
Put dem inna track and inna spelling bee
Down to mi sista kno say she can tun prime minista
