When Jah9 sings, hearts and minds awaken. Old school blues improvisation meets hard hitting lyrical prowess in a rich imaginative blend of vocal clarity and complexity. She sings with a voice that belies the dimensions of her physical body, from a soul much older than its current vessel. Her philosophy is profoundly spiritual, and her style is Jazz on Dub.

Lyrics:
One drop a Ganja oil a day
Keeps the doctor away
Three drops a ganja oil a day
It keeps the cancer a bay

Creation provided the Marijuana
For the heights to be guided by the Marijuana
And the nation relying on the Marijuana
If a one ting Jamaica lead the way
With Rastafari save the day
Cause him supply dem wid the Marijuana
While the government tell lie pon the Marijuana
So It up to I and I to free the Marijuana
Rastafari lead the way with the levity we maintain

For years dem prosecute I
Send police to hunt and kill
Raid and burn up we farming
And send the yutes dem go a jail
Now hypocrites presenting its self as good business practice
When the farmer colonizers want to meet with Rastafari
To work out logistics

When Creation provided the Marijuana
For the heights to be guided by the Marijuana
And the nation relying on the Marijuana
If a one ting Jamaica lead the way
With Rastafari save the day
Cause him supply dem wid the Marijuana
While the government tell lie pon the Marijuana
So It up to I and I to free the Marijuana
Rastafari lead the way with the levity we maintain

Yes there are somethings to be address now
Some reperation you could say
Lets start with some land and incentives
All if you nuh have no money
So Mr Minister.. What is require to fly the gate
Economic liberation on the way
And Jah 9 and the big

one up a front await

To be provided with the Marijuana
For the heights to be guided by the Marijuana
And the nation relying on the Marijuana
If a one ting Jamaica lead the way
With Rastafari save the day
Cause him supply dem wid the Marijuana
While the government tell lie pon the Marijuana
So It up to I and I to free the Marijuana
Rastafari lead the way with the levity we maintain

Mr Gong little son say set up shop
So gwaan prepare your power still the word sound drop
Nuh watch the lock of formal training
Watch the rate of progress
when you give a Jamaican just a little access
Yes, Education will prepared us to self sustain
As I intentionally classified the higher brain
But we indigenous, so the ganja free we up
And when them legalize it
I will advertise it and provided them with the Marijuana

For the heights to be guided by the Marijuana
And the nation relying on the Marijuana
If a one ting Jamaica lead the way
With Rastafari save the day
Cause him supply dem wid the Marijuana
While the government tell lie pon the Marijuana
So It up to I and I to free the Marijuana
Rastafari lead the way with the levity we maintain

Oh o o o o ohh oooh

One drop a Ganja oil a day
Keeps the doctor away
Three drops a ganja oil a day
It keeps the cancer a bay

The Marijuana
The Marijuana
The Marijuana
The Marijuana
