Lyrics Buju Banton

Buju Banton

Battered & Bruised

one life to live

take a look at me tell me what do you see

you dont have to love me but am not your enemy

and am not amused by your verbal abuse

you think you are clever what a sorry excuse

playing with the minds of people dangerous games they play

man if you are not careful they lead you a stray

protect your soul by any means necessary

take nothing for granted

you may be sorry ooohhh

one life u've got to live

come on lets us live it right

if u're in bed with the devil

then you ave made your choice

because

we've been battered and bruise we still nursing wounds

battered and bruised still nursing my wounds

battered and bruised yea still nursing my wounds

battered and bruised yeah still nursing wounds

we face all form of human segregation

who use to ask me ware i am from

they brought us here in shackles and chain

and throughout the centuries its nothing but pain
