Rise To The Occasion Lyrics


[Intro]
Rise to the occasion, look at yourself den say yuh strong,
no-one can stop yuh, oh yeah
Rise to the occasion, go ahead you know you strong, no-one can stop you
[Chorus]
It's for you to make the best in life, know that you got the chance
Get up & step towards your goal, it's all right, fulfill your needs & wants
You to make the best in life, know that you got the chance
Get up & step towards your goal, it's all right
[Verse 1]
Yeah yeah
Some people read & meditate, others move scantier
Some people are conscious about life, others are still panting, ya
Some people like strong drinks cold, like champagne & brandy, ya
Babies like ice-cream, & cake, and can-, candy, ya
I love herbs & girls, good words, roots, I'm Ashanti, ya

Girls love lots of shoes going to school, brand new, and I mean spanking, ya
Yeah, we all need education because that's the damn ting, ya
All things fade, leaving it standing
[chorus]
[Verse 2]
Fulfill your needs & wants
You got the clearance, that's the reference
Perseverance for the utmost best should be your preference
Skills of trade & talents is your evidence
Help those who far off, teach those in your residence
Woh! yeah yeah, girls get some sentiments
Look at it with a clear conscience
[chorus]
[Verse 3]
Oh wow
People try so many things just to make a living
Thanks & praise to the king, ever-living, thanks giving, ya
Need no distractions, stay focused because it now begins
Got to achieve your goals, and it so vivid
No crime!, no killing, no confusion
Life is so real, no time for disillusion
Just like mom would say, love is the solution
Keep making music, you'll become a musician
[chorus]
Woh yeah
[REPEAT Verse 1, fading]

Sizzla Kalonji (real name Miguel Orlando Collins) is a Jamaican reggae musician. He was born on 17 April 1976, in St Mary, Jamaica, of devout Rastafari parents and raised in August Town. He is unusually prolific, even by Jamaican standards. Sizzla has worked with such artists as Mobb Deep.

Sizzla, along with reggae recording artists such as Capleton, Buju Banton, and Anthony B, are credited with leading a movement toward a re-embracement of Rastafarian values in contemporary reggae music by recording material which is concerned primarily with spirituality, social consciousness, explores common themes, such as Babylon's corrupting influence, the disenfranchisement of ghetto youth, oppression of the black nation and Sizzla's abiding faith in Jah and resistance against perceived agents of oppression. Sizzla has over 40 full completed albums sold in record stores to date, the most popular which have been "Black Woman & Child" and "Da Real Thing" on the Digital B label, "Praise Ye Jah" on Xterminator, and "Rise to the Occasion" on Greensleeves.

Recently, however, he has come under fire for the homophobic content of many of his lyrics, and the advocacy of violence against gays.
