about

from the Suffice Single:

nattynation.bandcamp.com/album/suffice-single

This song serves as a departure from NATTY’s usual conscious messages with a hard roots rock reggae style to a new song about personal relationships and a softer tone. We are excited to see how reggae fans respond to this new style.

lyrics

I'm caught in too many directions
and I'm trying so hard to show some love and affection
but the situation has got me under suspicion
I'm breaking no rules & needing no protection

but it won't suffice, not to save her life
No it won't suffice, not to save my life

She cries and she cries and she cries tears from her eyes
and I try and I try and I try; it never suffice
and she cries and she cries and she cries every time
and I try and I try and I try; it never suffice, no no no...

Pain stricken for no reason at all
and I'm blaming myself for dropping the ball
Replying to her at her every beck and call
still I can't stop the tears that fall

No it won't suffice, not to save my life
No it won't suffice, not to save my life

She cries and she cries and she cries tears from her eyes
and I try and I try and I try; it never suffice
and she cries and she cries and she cries every time
and I try and I try and I try; it never suffice

Don't believe everything that they're telling you
(Why me?)
because I never do those things to make you feel so blue
(Why me?)
You got to believe in the love that we have together is true
(Why me?)
because I never do those things to make you feel so blue
(Why you?)

I'm caught in too many directions
and I'm trying so hard to show some love and affection
but the situation has got me under suspicion
I'm breaking no rules & needing no protection

but it won't suffice, not to save my life
No it won't suffice, not to save her life

but I cry and I cry and I cry tears from my eyes
and she tries and she tries and she tries; it never suffice
and I cry and I cry and I cry every time
and she tries and she tries and she tries; it never suffice
