Pato Banton - Legalise It lyrics
rate me(Intro)
(Letter to the President)
Yes man, legalize it, decriminalize it
(Letter to the President)
And I man Mr. Banton will advertise it, sensimelia
(Chorus)
Me send a letter to the residence of the President
With a stamp on the front saying very urgent
The message inside went something like
'Legalize it, sensimelia'
(Verse)
Sensimelia is a herb that grows naturally
Just like any other plant or tree
Natural as the birds, natural as the bees
And just like them sensi ought to be free
To be grown anywhere that we please
In the city, in the town and in the country, free
In the hills and in the valley
Sensi should be there for everyone to see
(Chorus)
Me send a letter to the residence of the President
With a stamp on the front saying very urgent
The message inside went something like
'Legalize it, sensimelia'
(Verse)
To call sensi a drug is very absurd
It should be known as a natural herb
So much diseases sensi has cured
That's why doctors use it all 'round the world
For glaucoma and fever, rheumatism, arthritis and asthma
Insomnia, emphysema and to block epileptic seizure
To alleviate pain and nausea, associated with the AIDS and cancer
Some say it is the best stress reliever
Lord knows I am believer
(Bridge)
Give me the ganja cookie and the herbal tea
Sensimelia is irie
I don't care what no government say
Sensimelia is okay
Give me the ganja cookie and the herbal tea
Sensimelia is irie
I don't care what no government say
Sensimelia is okay
(Chorus)
Legalize it, yes man, legalize it now
Legalize it, legalize it, legalize it
(Verse)
We want legalization, decriminalization and emancipation
For all those sentenced to incarceration for participation
With the healing of the nation
It's just another case of political insanity
Abusing the rights of humanity
But we should all plant a seed of this weed that we need
To avoid an ecological calamity
We can use for paper to save some trees
Use it for fuel to save some seas
Use it for medicines to help fight diseases
And use it for food when we hungry, so
(Bridge x2)
Give me the ganja cookie and the herbal tea
Sensimelia is irie
I don't care what no government say
Sensimelia is okay
(Chorus)
Me send a letter to the residence of the President
With a stamp on the front saying very urgent
The message inside went something like
'Legalize it, sensimelia'
(Outro)
Legalize it, fe we medication
Legalize it, Lord, fe we medication
Legalize it, woe, throughout the nation
Legalize it, yes, we sensimelia
Yes, from Downing Street to D.C.
Time to paint the White House green
You know what I mean, scean
