You know you get satisfied when there's plenty and

must be weighted in pounds

The cultures of marijuana are where i am feelin the freest

When I'm with you I feel so high I rise above such tempest

I love ya Mary J

You're the prettiest of flowers, "girl" i can't have any complains

And ya're not nocive to ones health like 'the mf cocaine 'tis

Causin people loneliness and such a pain

Because your DNA is one of the purest marijuana strains

Your effect is so potent, it's so insane

You so gummy and sticky like a plasticine 5

When me grind out your body, only stems remain

And to love you is so risky, I might get detained 6

You always keep me flying on the highest peaks

And anybody know it, and will always say the same

Chorus

Such a cure , such a cure this medication be for i

I'm just havin patience alike a patient tryin to find

The Levitation - Just go and mend all of m'a ills

Thy elevation this very medication is gettin me on such hights

Hook

Your leaves of green, your purples and blue

Has cured little kids, and old women too

And I say to myself, what a wonderful herb

And I say to myself, what a wonderful herb ???????? ????????

V2

Look at how wicked the Babylonian spirits are, they wagin

wars against comunities for years

For what they love/ their beliefs lots of people are sentenced

So wicked the Babylonian spirits are waginwars against

comunities for years

And now they all are tradin it

(Cannabis) should be known to all bread out ther

Across the seven seas, for its energy (benefits)

Yet again the ones usin it are to be judged and sentenced

Just for sharin/bein in possesion of this very medicinal plant

Chorus

Such a cure , such a cure this medication be for i

I'm just havin patience alike a patient tryin to find

The Levitation - Just go and mend all of m'a ills

Thy elevation this very medication is gettin me on such hights

V3

Ask me how i feel, and i'd say splendid indeed

Havin smoked a lil splendid weed

The purest bread grownd indoors, not a stick nor seed

Without forcin it to ripe , but lettin it to do so at its own speed

No fertilizer, natural baby feed

No cross pollination, she's a real pure breed

Cultivated in love and she's not grown for greed

She's everything I want and also all I need

Chorus

Such a cure , such a cure this medication be for i

I'm just havin patience alike a patient tryin to find

The Levitation - Just go and mend all of m'a ills

Thy elevation this very medication is gettin me on such hights

1. The "Medication" here is more likely to be Cannabis considering the intro and its healin property and the mention of it thr the whole song as well as the Jamaican beliefs on it AKA "I LOVE YA MARY JANE. The chorus can also be about a person love/... medication being the tenderness received from this very person ...but like i ve said most likely is a ref. to mary, mary 2. In interpretation it can be "happyness can be easily attained if it is truly persuaded yet it can also be a long way/road to be followed to do so 3. A chalice, also known as a wisdom chalice or chillum chalice, is a type of cannabis smoking pipe. It is a water pipe with a hose, or drawtube, for inhaling; the water cools and filters the smoke and the hose provides additional airspace for cooling 4. Rae Town is a Kingston, Jamaica neighborhood by Kingston Harbor 5. Yass, gemme that qualitative

sticky cannabis baee 6. "And to love you is so risky, I might get detained" Prolly a line that makes ref. to the ilegality of the cannabis in the world and the detainin that would face one if caught in possesion of it ... sadly #legalizeit Big up and respect for SUA, Spain, Amstertam, North Korea, Uruguay and hopefully many more to come
