“My self-produced album, Digital Degeneration, was born from my realisation that, rather than running from the digital sound I was limited to, by means of my recording equipment and software, I should embrace the abilities of the digital tools and simply balance it with a few analogue recordings and samples where necessary. The title track, Digital Degeneration, is a commentary on a society moving towards an unnatural, dystopian future, […covering creation with dem synthetic imitation].”
Behave Your Mouth lyrics:
(Jah Tung:)
Cool down and behave your mouth
No bother come here start rave and shout
Stop talk and behave your mouth
Cause you nah really got di first clue weh you talkin’ about
Better behave your mouth
Seh we nah nothin’ fi debate about
Done talk, can’t make me doubt
Better hold your Tung and a wait it out
Ay Babylon, please approach we with some respect
Remember when you handle we fi come correct
Don’t bother make assumptions and claim what you don’t know yet
Don’t carry on, me are no suspect, me is not a criminal
Wah make you think seh you haffi get physical?
Your diagnosis critical, you need fi decalcify your pineal
(Kabaka Pyramid:)
Babylon boy don’t talk to me
Show respect when you walk to me
I am a King like royalty
My ancestor dem fought for me
You a target me and harassing me
Like seh me did commit grand larceny
And a judge through the colour of me skin
But the same blood a flow inna me veins and me artery
C-c-c-cool down, Babylon just take a step back
If you ever touch me dreadlocks
Man haffi go box you down like Lennox
Y-y-y-you too loud with your chatting, try correct that!
No make no drama start cause that’s a setback yeah!
(Jah Tung:)
Cool down and behave your mouth
No bother come here start rave and shout
Stop talk and behave your mouth
Cause you nah really got di first clue weh you talkin’ about
Better behave your mouth
Seh we nah nothin’ fi debate about
Done talk, can’t make me doubt
Better hold your Tung and a wait it out
Hold on there, listen me lyrical analogy
Rebel with a cause fi challenge your authority
Ay Mister Politician check your priority
Meditate and find some clarity
Some say, it help you use less profanity
Balance di positive and negative polarity
Lion and Lamb duality
So me avoid Babylon like allergy
(Kabaka Pyramid:)
Them cannot stop the evolutionary progress happening
Universal brotherhood a spear dem like a javelin
Them want fi see we strugglin’
Hate a weh dem dabble in
Rastafari travellin’
Dem system is unravellin’
Dem babblin’ and chattin’ up dem mouth, yeah
I & I a fight the gideon without no doubt, yeah
All around the world me see di people dem a protest
And all you wanna do is talk, when the slewin’ start you better…
(Jah Tung:)
Cool down and behave your mouth
No bother come here start rave and shout
Stop talk and behave your mouth
Cause you nah really got di first clue weh you talkin’ about
Better behave your mouth
Seh we nah nothin’ fi debate about
Done talk, can’t make me doubt
Better hold your Tung and a wait it out
(Kabaka Pyramid:)
Less talkin’
We need fi sight more action
& less distraction, yeah
