Someone stole a check from our company and cashed it.
It was written from a store called the Rainbow Grocery.
The check was for over a thousand dollars.
The whole thing caused some hardship,
but it gave birth to this song.
Such a deal!
The LAW of KARMA
and
The Rainbow Grocery Reggae
Wassup my Brother?
Im gonna lay down a track for you my mon
You know how ders a check dat a crazy man don took
Well I wrote a poem bout it
an put it in my book
Its called
Don't Fuck Wit de Law of Karma
Heres how it goes
Front and back it seems to be
dat check ain't his
an money ain't free
Ders a price for everyting
everybody's got to pay
It must be now or later
if you ever want to play
If you take from others
what ain't rightly yours
it may give you quick advantage
but wont even de scores
You see de Lord is our collector
an He's never denied
A lot of people tempted
a lot of people dey cried
So if you want to be happy and if you want to be free
Never take another's mon's money from de Rainbow Grocery
an
Don't fuck wit de Law of Karma mon
just don't do it
you know
its like a waste of time
cuz de Law will get you in the end
You remember one time de Gandhi mon
I remember he say:
'God created the Law of Karma
an den He jus' walked away'
He retired mon
What else He need to do?
Take care of everything
All over de world
People know dis truth
What you do unto others
Shall be done unto you
For every ting a man has done
There shall be just reward
I believe its very difficult to judge another
unless you are de Lord
So, I'm tellin' you now
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
Don't fuck wit it man
You can fuck wit' anything else
but don't fuck wit dat
Its been known for thousands of years
only recently forgot
It will make a big big difference
help everybody out a lot
Dat's why I keep singing
again an again an again
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
its at the root of all sin
Jus don't mess wit it man
You got to leave it alone
Jus don't touch it
Do righteous actions
dey grow all on their own
No sense in bawlin' mon
a moanin' and a groan'
Put your feet on the righteous path
an walk your way home
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
Don't try to hurt somebody
Be kind to all beings
Der is no Truth but de one Truth
An dat Truth is de Truth of God
Its really very simple
not at all odd
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
Its like fuckin' wit God mon
jus don touch it
leave it alone
Everybody be happy
Man woman child in der home
When everybody got de true wealth
den dey wont need no loan
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
You see I wrote this poem
an I laid down the tracks
Its in the big book now mon
I cain't take it back
You know wen a ting happens to you
or you jus cant find a way?
Don't get reactive to it
jus remember what I say
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
jus leave it alone mon
Keep your hands off it
Do righteous actions all de time mon
It will take you all the way home
But as for the Law of Karma
Im tellin' ya
Don't touch it
leave it alone
Everybody be happy
Happy as dey can be
Know de Law of Karma will find us all
On land or on de sea
It'll find you everywhere mon
I want dis song to be a blessin
even wit de crazy man
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
don fuck wit it mon
I wrote this poem now
and Ive laid down the tracks
Now its in de big book mon
it ain't comin' back
Don't fuck with the Law of Karma
Don fuck with it man
Dis is P Biggi mon
signin' off from Jah-maica
I gone a foreign
All is Irieites
Itinually

All praise to de Irator
