about

In the age of big government, big industries and the great race to monopolize all aspects of the human experiences by big and greedy. Compassion centers and dispensaries have taken over the land scape flooding the market with the inorganic in the quest for big profits.
Rasta Nuh mix up no way. "Got What I Want"takes the listener on a journey of the Roots Man living in 1st world confines. Culture supports his wholesome living. Loyalty to what's real keeps him sane, so the daughter son di corner above all. "what mi get regular you can't find it at any other shop, higher grades".

lyrics

Yooohooo yoohoohoo
Just a working Man
ohooo yo oho ohoo
Just a working man

I’ve been working hard with no day off
It’s the measure of the man living inna first world country and self employed
When the work day done man stopped on the corner to get a draw,
something to shift my vibration cause tomorrow’s burden soon come

I need something for my brain
I need something for my meds

I know what you want
Know what you need
Little sativa, ah some a dis good cut indica weed
Know what I want
Know what I need
Something to shift my meditation
Yes yes yes

As she bring it come
Mi cut it up and roll it out
Overactive mind nuh need nuh talking
Just focused on the first puff
And I’ve got to save some for the morning time yeah
Nothing beats crushing the highways
With mi mind feeling right

I need something for my Brian
I need something for my meds
I got what You want
Got what you need
A little sativa, or maybe some good cut indica weed
Got what I want
Got what I need
Something to shift my vibration, something to seal mi meditation Yes

Pon di corner wha mi get regular you cah find a any other shop
High grade marijuana fi calm mi nerves and mek mi shoulder drop
So at the end of my work day

I need something for my Brian
I need something for my meds
I got what I want
Got what you need
A little sativa, to set my mind to ease yes
Got what I want
Got what I need
To shift my vibration,
Yes yes

Oh oh woh woh wo

Yes I

Am just a working man yes
