Sean Paul: 'We Be Burning' lyrics - Dancehall

Intro]
Just gimme di trees and mek we smoke it yo (smoke it yo)
It don't mek we please so don't provoke it yo (voke it yo)
We nuh need nuh speed so we nuh gon coke it yo (coke it yo)
Set we mind at ease we gotta take it slow
So when yuh see di S.P. floatin', don't provoke him
Cau di weed weh we smokin' need fi soakin'
Fastin' fi di medication, and di best hygrade a Jamaican
When we a bun a weed we supportin' and promotin'
Lau di crack and di coke ting yeah we soaking
Herb a di healin' of di nation
Legalize it right now we wanna blaze one
[chorus]
Everyday, we be burnin' not concernin' what nobody wanna say
We be earnin' dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and all dem diamonds all we got is Mary J
Legalize it, time you recognize it
This purple haze it mek mi crazy
Mek mi write new tune yeah dat's what pays me
Cau dat not di only occupation
Goin' to get some I give yuh medication
When a farmer grows it he knows to close it
Economical benefit help fi those who a fi deh yah pon di hard jugglin
Cau di system only keep man struggling
Studyin people a use it don't abuse it
Cau di concentration well reputed
Dat's why herb man dem a di wise one
And it found on di grave of King Solomon
And it good fi di eye sight and di chest sight
And it give yuh nuff inside just gimme di light
And, mek we blaze it we should a neva waste it
[chorus]
Again, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and all dem diamonds all we got is Mary J
Legalize it, time you recognize it
Just gimme di trees and mek we smoke it yo (Smoke it yo!)
It dont mek we please so don't provoke it yo (Voke it yo!)
We nuh need nuh speed so we nuh gon coke it yo (Coke it yo!)
Set we mind at ease we gotta take it slow
So when yuh see di S.P. floatin don't provoke him
Cau di weed weh we smokin need fi soakin
Fastin fi di medication, and di best hygrade a Jamaican
Cau we know it as a great ting no debatin
While dem incarceratin true dem hatin
Cau dem don't wanna see we a remain calm
Even though dem condemn (?)
[chorus]
Everyday, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and all dem diamonds all we got is Mary J
Legalize it, time you recognize it
Again, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and all dem diamonds all we got is Mary J
Legalize it, time you recognize it
Again, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and all dem diamonds all we got is Mary J
Legalize it, time you recognize it
Just gimme di trees and mek we smoke it yo (Smoke it yo!)
It dont mek we please so don't provoke it yo (Voke it yo!)
We nuh need nuh speed so we nuh gon coke it yo (Coke it yo!)
Set we mind at ease we gotta take it slow

This song has a catchy tune and I looked up the lyrics because I can't understand a thing that he was saying.However, the message that it is portraying is politically incorrect. All it talks about is legalizing marajauna which could single handedly destroy our country. If you were educated and could spell correctly, you would realize this.

yeah so all you people are juss talkin bout how cool the song sounds and how hott sean paul is. ya'll are a disgrace cuz 99% of ya'll postin prolly didnt even know wat da song was bout til u read da lyrics. this is a powerful song and it represents a very strong topic thats causing a revolution for our generation. quit bein so ignorant and closed-minded, oh yeah and

This song is very .... Wow ... I love the beat and could listen to this song everyday. Sean Paul and I are both from the Caribbeans. Dont get me wrong, I love this song but the words are not very ""Polite"". DO NOT SMOKE !!!! It's bad. real Bad. Do me and yourself a favor, you could listen to this song all you want (like me) but please don't follow the words !!!! Sean Paul is cute and all but be carefull what you say Sean Paul .... Caribbean people moving with power. I love you Sean Paul !!!

Wow... i cant believe how many people dont know what this song is about and just think its a cool beat an think this dudes hott... he's suggesting we legalize pot, and putting it to a fresh beat, maybe someone who has a clearer voice should sing it so it could be possible... or swisha house should screw and chop it

we were trying to figure out what the words to the song were so we looked up the lyrics and it is a very catchy tune but it shouldnt be legalized!!!!!!

This song is off the hook, and it is a powerful song.... and the comment by "us"... if anyone's close minded its you! To some people it is just a song to dance to at the club, not everyone takes these words to heart like we do, so quit being an ass!!! This song is very powerful, and i bealive soon it will be legalized!!! shit its already legal in DENVER!!!!! just give it time.. till then... *lights a blunt* peace!

To the kid who said legalizing weed would destroy our country: I have a little aphorism for you: Shut the f**k up!
And to everyone else who has no idea what he is saying and just thinks he is hot and sexy, you people need to get a life. People sing and make songs for specific reasons, and sean paul's reasoning for We Be Burnin' is 100% correct. I couldnt agree with him more. And its not hard to know what he is saying if you actually make an attempt to listen. Dont be naive, the lagalization of marijuana would be so beneficial to me, my friends, jailmates imprisoned solely for the distribution of marijuana, and millions of others who smoke herb nationwide. The United States is supposedly a "free country", but if you cant even smoke a plant that grows naturally, how can we be free? Alcohol and Cigarettes are a million times more destructive than marijuana, and they are both legal. This sh*t is f**ked up, and the government needs to get smart and make economic benefit off weed. The economy is already f***ked up beyond repair, so the addition of weed would do no harm whatsoever.
