Stop Live Inna Di Past Lyrics - Beenie Man

Intro: 

When yuh live in the past 

Yuh lost (blessed, blessed) 

Yuh better walk on the right path 

Big life! Liberty! 

Straight up 

Mankind what me sing (sung) 

Chorus: 

Memories dont live like people do 

They always 'member you 

Whether things are good or bad 

Its just the memories that you have 

The Beenie Man a sing (say hey) 

Boy stop live down inna de past 

Just member when man a ride 'orse 

Now yuh dead that mean yuh soul lost 

Crushed like a serpent snake under grass (again!) 

Boy stop live down inna de past 

Just member when man a ride 'orse 

Body between di board head peep through the glass 

Crushed like a serpent snake under grass

Way back inna di west before dem lick Jango head

High plains drifter man ah fled (I sing)
