Tribal Seeds – “The Garden”
“The Garden” Background & Lyrics:
“The Garden” is the first track off of Tribal Seeds 2009 album The Harvest. When The Pier asked about the song, the group simply advised that it was inspired by the ridiculousness of a plant being outlawed. They invite you the fans to read the lyrics to see the clear definition of the song.
Lyrics:
“Come on and burn
Put your two lungs to work
Oh I say burn
Put your two lungs to work
For the ganja smoking, for the ganja
For the ganja smoking, for the marijuana
Babylon you break the very laws that you made
To ban out Jah garden is a mistake
I mon is the roots and not the branches
I see through your lies little son of a …
Lord bless I wit the abundant herb for meditation
Grow it and spread it to the whole nation
Nuff of the yout spread negative vibration
All wrapped up in downpression
But in I herbal garden is a sweet medicine for me
In I herbal garden is what inspired this melody
Sensimilla is a gift from Jah
I will not follow your man made law
Me nah cause no trouble with Jah herb in me pipe
Yes me fire up and yes me feel alright
Me blaze up the green when me feeling the blues
To plant tribal seeds is what I and I choose
Never disrespect I will never abuse
It is laws of the book, I follow the rules
In I herbal garden is a sweet medicine for me
In I herbal garden is what inspired this melody
In a dub war
Can I get some meditation today
Can I get a good vibration today
Can I get some meditation today
Can I get a good vibration today
Please mister herbs man
Whoa mister herbs man
Yea collie herbs man
Herbs man”
