Beware Lyrics


[intro:]
Beware for the shottas dem strap
Rastaman ah tell di youths dem fill low di block
Beware who di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care(no ooo)Its ashame to see brothers killing themselves
Wasting energy, should be uplifting themselves
Whos di enemy putting shots on the shelf
What we need is brain, food and belly full for our healthSo dont get caught up in a fety passion
Be careful of dem guns and ammunition
And let us make a change in meditation
Cause we could use the strength for cultivation(my lord!)[chorus:]
Beware for the shottas dem strap
Rastaman ah tell di youths dem nuh rat-ta-ta-tat
Beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care and then we shot yuh inna yuh poop-poop-poop
Beware now the whole place hot rastaman ah tell di youths dem fill low di block
Beware now di cops start heart attach and dem nuh care(no noooo)So much blood crime man ah shot man ah night time
Read yuh head line lord it really blows my mind
School children targeted in the broad day light
Dem ah dead fi cell phones, all so inna drive by

Police ah dead to, one ah day

Wasting energy, should be uplifting themselves
Whos di enemy putting shots on the shelf
What we need is brain, food and belly fully for our healthSo dont get caught up in a fety passion
Be careful of dem guns and ammunition
And let us make a change in meditation
Cause we could use the strength for cultivationomar

Tarrus Riley born Omar Riley in Bronx, New York, is a promising reggae singer and songwriter. His early years were spent in music studios and traveling the world with his dad. He picked up something special along the way. He is a songwriter of uncommon intelligence, breadth with a deft touch. His emotional and spiritual IQ matches his heartfelt sincerity. As a singer, his vocal style is reassuring. It conveys his every mood, concern and context eloquently. His songwriting is bold, yet definitive, passionate and authentic, without being strident or overly militant. Except for the same surname, Tarrus, while clearly not possessing his famous father's voice with its sharp edge, is content musically to create his own legacy.
------------------------------------
Riley is the son of veteran singer Jimmy Riley and nurse Lavern Tatham-Riley. He was born in the Bronx and grew up in South Florida. He began his musical career as a deejay working with Busta Rhymes, taking his birth sign as his stage name at his mother's suggestion (the spelling later changed from Taurus to Tarrus), and recorded his first singles for his father's Love & Promotion label. He was guided in his early career by Dean Fraser, who also performs in his band and produces much of Riley's work.
Riley has released three albums, Challenges (2004), Parables (2006), and Contagious (2009). Contagious features guest appearances from Damian Marley, Vybz Kartel, Etana, Konshens, Demarco and Duane Stephenson. His commercial breakthrough came in 2006 with the Parables album and the Jamaican number one single "She's Royal".

Riley was awarded the Reggae Runnins Caribbean Heritage Award at the 2009 HOT 105 FM Caribbean-American Heritage Awards. He was nominated in the Best Reggae category of the 2009 MOBO Awards.
