El reggae es un género musical que se originó en Jamaica en la década de 1960, con influencias del ska y el rocksteady. Se destaca por su ritmo sincopado que enfatiza el tercer tiempo del compás, así como por el uso de bajos y baterías contundentes.
Las letras del reggae suelen abordar temas sociales y políticos, como la pobreza, la opresión y la lucha por la igualdad y la justicia. Entre los artistas de reggae más reconocidos se encuentran Bob Marley, Peter Tosh y Jimmy Cliff, quienes contribuyeron a popularizar el género en todo el mundo.
Hoy en día, el reggae sigue siendo un género apreciado en todo el mundo y ha influido en numerosos otros géneros musicales, como el hip hop, el rock y la música electrónica. Los sitios web de música en línea ofrecen una amplia selección de canciones de reggae de diferentes artistas y épocas, permitiendo a los amantes del género disfrutar de su música preferida de forma gratuita y conveniente desde cualquier lugar del mundo.
Sizzla Kalonji es el nombre artístico de Miguel Orlando Collins. Nació el 17 de abril de 1977 en Saint Mary, Jamaica, y se crió en August Town. Es inusualmente prolífico, incluso para los estándares Jamaicanos. Sizzla pertenece a la secta rastafario "Bobo Ashanti", conocida por su ortodoxia al rechazar los valores asociados con la cultura y el colonianismo. Las canciones de Sizzla hablan de la pobreza y desesperación que impregna la juventud jamaicana, de brutalidad policial y de opresión política y religiosa.
Dry cry even tears
Even if my heart cry
But who cares
Who's fault
No one but myself
Things do happen words can't explain
The only human feeling mix with pain
People would spend time just for us to separate
And they do wanna see us reach nowhere oh girl
And you know I care
Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you to go
Can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days
Am I to humble or ignorant
Since we start to fight nothing seems important
Oh my girl have left me and gone
Doesn't want to see her in no other arm
The essence of her beauty and charm
The perfume linger oh damn
Remember girl where we are coming from
I am the one to whom you belong oh yea
Girl you keep me strong
You alone a love no other one
Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you to go
Can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days
[Verse 3]
Keep looking to see her at my gate
Listening to hear the phone ring by the fireplace
Now somewhere out there is my girl
Now where can I find her in this world
Still not going to break down
Nor be sad even though
I am stress up, fed up and feeling mad
I just can't do it with out her oh jah...
Still I a man got to try
Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you to go
Can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days
Is this happen for real
Only if know what the vibes what I feel
Still trying to do my best
And I still won't lose my interest
Ma dont I love you so...
Really hurt to see you go
Why does it have to be this way
Can't tell you to go
Can't tell you to stay
Just one of those days
Just one of those days
Dry cry even tears
Even if my heart cry
But who cares
Who's fault
No one but myself
Things do happen words can't explain
The only human feeling mix with pain
People would spend time just for us to separate
And they do wanna see us reach nowhere oh girl
And you know I care
Am I to humble or ignorant
Since we start to fight nothing seems important
Oh my girl have left me and gone
Doesn't want to see her in no other arm
The essence of her beauty and charm
The perfume linger oh damn
Remember girl where we are coming from
I am the one to whom you belong oh yea
Girl you keep me strong
You alone a love no other one
