Riverside - Culture

Where is the love to be found, oh People?

Nowhere around…

For I woke on Saturday morning

Feeling sticky and dirty after work

Took a walk down a riverside

I roll a little spliff

Sat down on a stone and start to cool off

With my burden down a riverside

For I check around the youths

And I try to teach the truth

Lay their burden on the riverside

I walk through every corner

Try to find someone to talk to but I have to

Lay their burden on the riverside

For I walk and I talk

And I linger and I search

Lay their burden on the riverside

And I walk, I met the youthman pocket

And I try to search around them

Lay their burden on the riverside

And I sat down quietly

Watch the fishes circle around the little stones

Lay their burden on the riverside

I cup my ears and I heard the little birds

Whistling in the tree like so

Lay their burden on the riverside

Live good among your neighbor

Like sister and brother and

Come with me a riverside

All you need is pray to Jah, quality

You see secret shall be revealed

Lay their burden on the riverside

Jah provides for the birds in the air

And the fishes in the sea so what about me

Lay their burden on the riverside

Look at the crow they toil not neither do they spin

Yet father provide far them

Lay their burden on the riverside

Let us walk and talk

And pray quietly in search

Lay their burden on the riverside

Look at the color of those clothes, oh Jah

Make each and every one individually

Lay their burden on the riverside

Where is the love?

Where is the togetherness too?

Lay their burden on the riverside

I can’t take the war and I can’t take the shooting

Neither the looting, just

Lay their burden on the riverside

I tried around Rema

Even in The Jungle

To find a quiet rest

Round there in a Nannyville

My heart come to a trail

Lay their burden on the riverside

And I knock, and I search

And I whisper and I preach

Lay their burden on the riverside

Where is the quietness

And the love to be found in some corner?

Lay their burden on the riverside

Let us walk, let us search

Let us examine and let us see

Lay their burden on the riverside
