Buju Banton Memories

John Legend came through and offered his vocal stylings to Buju Banton’s new track, “Memories,” the first single off his upcoming album, Upside Down. After signing a new deal with Roc Nation last November, Buju has been prepping his latest project, which will serve as his first full-length, solo studio album in nearly a decade. The last offering we received of this sort was Before The Dawn back in 2010, and while the reggae artist did put out a compilation album by the name of Steppaz Riddim earlier this year, which features his own single, “Steppa,” along with joints from a variety of dancehall acts, Upside Down will be his first venture on his own in quite some time.

To amp up the anticipation for the new album, Buju has delivered its first single with the help of John Legend. Earlier this year, Buju also joined forces with Tory Lanez for the remix of his own song, “Trust,” and last month, he linked up with Dvsn and Ty Dolla Sign on “Dangerous City.”

Lyric Video

Lyrics

[Intro: Buju Banton]
Now what shall I do?
You confess to me that you feel the same way too, girl
Girl come forth and rock my world

[Verse 1: John Legend]
I guess I am not over you, like I thought I was
Guess I was foolin’ myself, ’cause I’m still in love
Still in love with you woman
I still have dreams of you and I
Can’t get over you woman
No matter how I try
It’s drivin’ me crazy
Thoughts of you with another man
I’m losin’ my lady, so sad I am
I guess I’m not over you, like I thought I was
I guess I was foolin’ myself, ’cause I’m still in love

[Chorus: John Legend]
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories

[Verse 2: Buju Banton]
Treasure yuh body but I, cherish yuh mind
Even though it’s complicated, which is most of the time
A life without your love ain’t workin’ out fine
Perception and reality, clearly define
I bet you never know the love mi have inna mi heart
We make simple mistakes, tear us apart
Forgettin’ where we comin’ from and how it all start
Usin’ harsh words, bitter arrows and sparks
We live inna di same house and we nuh talk
We used to be on, now we’re totally off
Oh I wish, this was never our past
Oh there is no love lost, know that

[Chorus: John Legend]
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories

[Verse 3: Buju Banton]
Over many moons, since we part
But the memories remain with the love inna mi heart
Care not how many friendships I start
This spot where yuh touch, still tender and soft
To be honest, I do miss the fires and sparks
But I’d rather live on the rooftop or somewhere in a park
But when did we mess up? Realize the blame
She left me a message explaining’her pain
She said, “I tried, even avoid
Surroundin’ distractions and outside noise
But we both make mistakes and we both lied
Oh, and now here we are”

[Chorus: John Legend]
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories
Even when I try to not say the things I say
Wasn’t meant to be this way
Love is not game to play, yes we went our separate ways
But the memories
