about

On "Don't Do That" the band stated that the song came about because of the situation in Jamaica with the youths killing each other with the gun. It's been like that for many years and it's perpetual. We're here now trying to encourage the youths to develop the ability to reason instead of shooting each other. It's important that we preserve ourselves because we're the future. It's the tradition of the Rastafari to make sure youths stay positive, we should be able to strengthen each other as a people. Rastafari is love and unity. Rastafari is about building the community. Rastafari is a oneness, we hope to be able to at least encourage the youths to have a different mindset.
We want to give thanks for the good people that surround us through the connections we have made. We were blessed to link with Issachar Muzik Record Label who is part of the cultural revolution, helping to push the culture aspect of reggae to where it's supposed to be. Our connection with Issachar has been very fruitful, and we are so thankful to have our music distributed by the legendary Tuff Gong International and we

lyrics

Ho ho ho hoooy don't do that don't do that don't do that
Oh ho ho hoooy don't do that don't do that dont do that
Bust it man mi say you no fi bust it cool down you temper
No bust it man me say you no fi bust it leggo you gun trigger
Simple things the make us quarrel
Simple things that make us fuss and fight
You use you gun, and you shoot your brothers down
Without respect of the human being's life
That's not right let's unite in Jah sight.
Now and forever right now

You might need someone while down and out and
He might be the one that will help you out
Don't you push that man down in the mud
Give that man an helping hand
That is right let's unite in Jah sight
Now and forever right now

Oh ho ho hoooy don't do that don't do that don't do that
Oh ho ho hooooy don't do that don't do that
Bad boy cool down you temper
No bust it man me see you no fi bust cool down you temper
No bust it man mi say you no fi bust leggo you gun trigger

Cause simple things that make us quarrel
Simple things that make us fuss fight
You use you gun and you shoot you brothers down
Without respect for human beings life
Thats not right no lets unite in Jah sight
Now and forever right now

Ho ho ho hoooy don't do that dont do that don't do that
Ho ho ho hoooy don't do that don't do that don't do that
Mi say no bust it man mi say you no fi bust cool down you temper
No bust it man mi say you no fi bust it leggo you gun trigger
Mi say no bust it man mi say you no fi bust cool down you temper
No bust it man mi say you no fi bust it leggo you gun trigger

Mi say no bust it man mi say you no fi bust cool down you temper
No bust it man mi say you no fi bust it leggo you gun trigger
No I say cool down you temper easy man leggo you gun trigger
Easy man cool down cool down
