[00:00.30] MatisYahu - Buffalo Soldier
[00:01.67] .
[00:10.76] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[00:12.89] I used to be a mobster burning down the block
[00:15.45] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[00:17.89] I used to be a mobster burning down the block
[00:20.45] .
[00:20.76] Don't judge a book by the cover
[00:22.51] Every single being in this world is your brother
[00:25.07] When I lost and uncover
[00:27.13] Ancient words that teach me to love ya!
[00:30.14] So we burn to return to the mother
[00:32.51] And we yearn to unlearn all they told ya about yourself
[00:35.89] Who you are, what you should be,
[00:38.51] I'm gonna be free, leave it up to me!
[00:40.88] .
[00:41.08] Raise your eyes to the sky, look out through the night
[00:43.07] Feel alright!
[00:45.76] Stars burn bright, high like the moonlight
[00:47.95] You'll be alright!
[00:49.95] .
[00:50.83] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[00:53.20] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[00:55.76] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[00:58.26] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[01:00.95] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[01:03.32] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[01:05.82] .
[01:06.14] This is the medicine, I'm out like the Bedouin
[01:08.39] This knife I'm burying, this life I'm treasuring
[01:10.69] .
[01:11.15] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[01:13.47]
[01:16.21] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[01:18.96] .
[01:20.78] I went running away to the cave
[01:23.02] Went in a slave and came out all flames
[01:25.46] I went running away for the hills
[01:28.13] Back to my roots and I'm running still
[01:30.51] But now I'm running to face my dreams
[01:33.14] Find my place and what it means
[01:35.51] Find yourself and no one else
[01:37.88] You have to leave it up to me, leave it up to me!
[01:41.63] .
[01:45.57]
[01:51.59] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[01:53.90] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[01:56.47] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[01:58.97] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[02:01.53] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[02:04.03] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[02:06.46] .
[02:06.78] This is the medicine, I'm out like the Bedouin
[02:09.22] This knife I'm burying, this life I'm treasuring
[02:11.28] .
[02:11.71] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[02:16.66] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[02:19.53] .
[02:22.16] Buffalo soldier, you know I'm not a rasta
[02:24.34] I used to be a mobster burning down the block
[02:26.78] I shot the sheriff, the DA, and the deputy
[02:29.28] Sorry Al Sharpton, I don't need you to lecture me
[02:31.90] Maybe I'll stop talking about guns
[02:34.15] When you talk about the funds that they cut for the youth
[02:36.78] Let's cut to the truth, ain't enough for the youth
[02:39.22] So tell me how you judge me til you're stuck in the shoes, man!
[02:42.15] Where the Congressmen, where all the Senators?
[02:44.46] They're thinking about their green, not the color of the President?
[02:46.96] This is just a relevance, survival is the sentiment
[02:49.41] Narcotics is the only way you know that I'ma measure it!
[02:52.12] They say that we are in a post Obama era
[02:54.50] Well exactly what that mean? You needn't make it clearer
[02:56.88] Does it mean that the rich are gonna finally start to share up
[02:59.73] Re-proportion the wealth and make things fairer
[03:02.11] Asking God "why do poor people suffer"
[03:04.54] But now I'm such a hypocrite, the Rolls Royce mufflers.
[03:07.23] In the gutters nobody never loved us
[03:09.80] I am just the result of pain and hunger!
[03:12.17] .
[03:12.48] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[03:14.79] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[03:17.23] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[03:20.05] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[03:22.36] Buffalo soldier, no I'm not a rasta
[03:24.86] I used to be a mobster burning up the block
[03:27.42] .
[03:27.80] This is the medicine, I'm out like the Bedouin
[03:30.05] This knife I'm burying, this life I'm treasuring
