Time & Place Songtext
von Buju Banton

One, two, three, four

Hmm, yeah

Have you ever heard a caged bird sing?
There′s a time and a place for everything, whoa, whoa
And do you believe in the joy it bring?
When your eyes are open and you can see everything
That's around you

Separating friends from foes
Taking dangerous blows
Learning from life as you grow
Yo, do you believe me?

And however rough it may seem
It is not a far-fetched dream
And I know (I know)
Dreadlock will be coming in
And however rough it may seem
It is not a far-fetched dream
And I know (I know)
Blessings will be flowing like a stream


Have you ever heard a caged bird sing? (Have you ever heard a caged bird sing?)
There′s a time and a place for everything
Do you believe me, yeah?
Just open up your eyes and look within
There's a time and a place for everything (oh)
Or you could believe me (no)

I searched for freedom the caged bird sings
I wanna hear the freedom bell ring
Until that day uh there will be no peace, oh no
Battles rage over land and seas
Fighting soldiers with desperate needs
As children plays upon a land filled with cluster bombs, lord

Have you ever heard a caged bird sing?
There's a time and a place for everything, yo
Can you hear me, yeah?
Just open up your eyes take a look within
There′s a time and a place for everything, yo
Do you hear me?


This one called "Time and Time and Time and Time place"
Look man well look ready don′t destroy inna hearse
Try nuh tek your money and go free nuh base
Watch where you a carry wacka run with your ways
Lot man woulda run with it if it kill you inna hearse
Kill you and go hide your body and nuh leave a trace
Listen Buju Banton pon di riddim with mi case
Unuh wan hear mi just say it to mi face, 'cause

Let mi sing, there′s a time and a place for everything, yo
If you don't know, well I′m the son of the king
Just you take a look, take a look within
'Cause there′s a time and a place for everything, yo
How much more can I tell unuh

Be still oh, children of man
Know either your love is gone
It is you made our sun appear, no, no
Oh, oh, we're his children
