BLACK PEARL

Oh black pearl in my palm shimmering bright

Oh black pearl from the depth ocean divine

One day you’ll have to shine

No longer will you hide

When you solidify

Stronger than knife

Closer to Jah I bring my mind

Far away from guile and strife

Violence disappear in time

Beauty come and waste no time

Be still and know you live for life

Beating hearts could not divide

In the darkness you reside

All my life

I wanted to know that side of you

In the shell you hide

The tears you cry fall into water

No more goodbyes

We’ve been through hard times but you survived

Chorus

Once created and sealed with you

Embedded and finally became you

Now all your pearls yeah I will review

Which one to shine and hide dem too

It’s lonely work what you been through

I do as much as I am able to

Slow and patient and gradual too

Reliant in JAH from sand you move

Wave will push but destiny you rule

Chorus
