Lyrics

Music Alone Shall Live
by Sandra L. Brooks

Reggae music flow over me pump up my heart so it can beat
Open all of the seven seals, clear my eyes so I can see
Cymbals crash, heavens decree, send a breath of air to me
I inhale now my lungs are free, spirit of life dwell inside of me
Love spread im hand pon de keys, send a sound straight to me
My ears are flowers now opened wide I hear your melody deep inside

(Cho.) MUSIC ALONE SHALL LIVE (rept.3)

Gitsy jussa scratch pon de fret open, up mi back now it stand correct
The secret of life is what I seek, I'm new soul just set free
Bassie a de oil inna mi joints, I start to move cause I have no choice
You're thundering now flows through my veins, this is the point where you feel no pain
Drummie just commanded my feet I start to dance cause de music sweet
Honey is what you place on my tongue, open my mouth now I sing your song

(Cho.) MUSIC ALONE SHALL LIVE

Step in my ride, pump up de bass, dis is how we strive in Babylon space
Kindred souls are here with me now, raise my hands as I take my vows
Yes I been to an African school, yes I learned all the rules
The earth is my drum, my kingdom come
Move my hips that's where the Reggae come from
Horns man jussa wild up de place, a Jah Jah voice come fe bless up de space
Reggae Music flow over me, pump up my heart so it can beat

(Cho.) MUSIC ALONE SHALL LIVE
