I think he just wanted to do a different album that's more universal and more subtlety redirects back to his beliefs because he knows he has that ability to pull in the masses. Buju, over the years, has made a variety of music within the reggae sphere. And he's evolved a lot.
We ago mek it, mek it
Win the prize and tek it, tek it
We ago mek it, mek it
Four corner, global
We ah strive and ah reach fi we goal
Dem ah fight and spite through dem in control
Dem ah real asshole, but a long time
We ah fight fi a slice of di bread
Dem ah scream and ah dream and ah wish we fi dead
But ah God have we head ah nuh just now
We ah scream and ah cheer fi di team
Dem ah plan how fi bench we and dem rule supreme

Give love to who show us love to
We fly high like the morning dove
And da rich look 'ya fit like glove

We ah fight fi a slice of di bread
Dem ah scream and ah dream and ah wish we fi dead
But ah God have we head ah nuh just now
We ah scream and ah cheer fi di team
Dem ah plan how fi bench we and dem rule supreme
Like ah dem one fi clean
Well imagine we ah try move out of di shack
Dem ah cry and ah spy and ah try stop we clock
