I am a warrior preparing for war
I am a warrior I step through this door
The enemy is ignorance
The enemy is hate
I am a warrior
I’m fighting for… I’m fighting for…
I’m fighting for Love
On the right, they claim the victory
But I can see the fear they try to hide
They push the future out in the streets
Of depression and disease
My own people, some so abused
Some don’t recognize the God in you
Youth try suicide – we have to help them live
The world needs love – that’s what I have to give
Love’s what I have to give
Open your hearts and let Love march in
Courage will free the minds of many today
Knowing the truth of how God made you
Just embrace your true soul
Jah said to love one another
Even as I do love you
Jah said love one another
Because in love you find the truth
Love is the truth
I am a warrior preparing for war
I am a warrior I step through this door
The enemy is ignorance
The enemy is hate
But our weapon is our love
Love’s stronger than hate
Love barricades
Our weapon is our Love
Love’s stronger than hate
Sooner or later truth will prevail
I know it will
Our weapon is our love
Love’s stronger than hate
The beauty in our love
Will soon liberate
Love elevates
Your weapon is your love
Love’s stronger than hate
The power in your love
Will conquer someday
Love finds a way
My Love is your Love
Our Love is pure Love
Its all One Love

The glow of 7 white candles
A circle of sea salt
Ancient words to open earth’s doors
1 drum beat dancing outside
I’ve fallen in a trance
Oh life’s burning with desire
Oh I’m speaking with the Ones of Old
Oh I’m filled with new meanings
High above this world I go
I’m seeing with new eyes now
An alter in the woods
A life misunderstood
4 symbols start with air
Water cleanse me, earth remake
Fire give me life

I was once asked what this song meant and I hesitated to answer at the time. But this is a new year – this song is about possession, about soaring beyond this material world into the indescribable realm, about communicating with beings as old as time.
May you laugh loudly with all your heart and soul
Ancestors grant us love
May you bless each life you touch along your path
May you overcome your pain
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do
May prosperity forever be a friend of yours
Ancestors light our way
May your demons cease to scream and bring you fear
May they inspire you to grow
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do
May the raindrops continue to caress your soul
Ancestors grant us peace
May you always climb the mountain of your dreams
May happiness surround you
Peace be unto you
Blessings in all you do

Sometimes people come into our lives and make a huge impact… really teach us something important about life. I wrote “Peace & Blessings” for such a friend. We were in each others lives for short period of time, but that time meant a great deal to me and inspired this song.
Let the sun shine in
Move to the Light
Relaxation…
Feel the power
Nature’s power
Healing power
Make my step
Light and swift
So I can move to the Light
Light my path
Show me now
So I can get to the Light
Let my heart
Open wide
And I will move to the Light
Accept my gifts
Bless my soul
I’ve got to move in the Light
Let the Sun shine in

Let the sun shine in… I remember I was in DC with some friends at a club and Nina Simone’s “Here Comes the Sun” came on. I’d never heard the song before, but I loved the message – it inspired me so much I started writing right there in the club… lol
My brother
I’m writing this
To tell you I love you
You showed me what true friendship means
This life is rough
But knowing you has made me better
You shared your strength
And I want you to know
Brother
You help me to grow
I thank you
Where ever you go
Always be true
Sitting here
Thinking of
Tough times I came through
You were there, helped me make it through
This life gets rough
But knowing you has made me stronger
You shared your faith
–Words & Music by Nhojj
I wrote this song for all the brothers, especially my biological brother, who inspired me and helped me be the human being I am now. Its interesting, when we were younger, my brother and I fought constantly… lol now we are the best of friends. Thank you my brother…
