Lyrics
So many ways to say the same thing
So much pieces we try to make fit in
Gazing at stars to comprehend
Some sincere
Others it’s just pretence
And so the story grows
As more truth unfolds
We’re not ai far away yea
Chorus
Go on reach high
Find heaven
Third eye deep water
Blue skies all around us yea

Verse 2 The morning breaks we do it all again
We rise and shine to a bright new day
So blessed with beans we’re living in a dream
What really differs between you and me
So the story grows as more truth unfolds
We’re not so far away yea
Chorus

Love me × 4 Naturally
You look at me I turn and smile
Your pretty face melts me like ice

Days in the past you did me wrong

Smile at the the things you do
When I’m with you I bloom
I really admire you
Verse 2
Your tender touch
I long to feel I close my eyes to make it real
Do you recall us on the phone

I can’t find the strength to say what I feel
Some how I know you see right through me
And I dont know why
I need you this way I cant help myself
Believe when I say
Chorus
Verse 3
Now when it’s all been said and done
The times we spend lessons are learn

I cant help myself believe when I say
Vamp outro
Girl I really admire you

With out proof it’s just a story told
And by how you should see clearly it’s with you my final chapters is wrote
But I cant find me living though your eyes
Don’t clip my wings I was meant to fly
So much to say in so little time
But we’re not really sharing
No
Chorus
It’s not only if I cry
Sometimes I bruise inside
So don’t assume my silence
Would mean I’m fine and everything’s alright
With words you crush my body

So don’t assume my my silence would mean I’m fine and everything’s alright
Verse 2
I know you watch daily what I do
But your compliments have dried
And though you say your love me

But I cant find me living through your eyes
I won’t pretend this love is blind
So much to say it’s all on my mind but we’re not really sharing
No
Chorus
Bridge
We promise to grow
We said we would stand the test of time
But now silence lingers on
Some how we missed our turn
Chorus
It’s not only if I cry
Sometimes I bruise inside
So don’t assume my silence
Would mean I’m fine and everything’s alright
With words you crush my body
girl with a kiss you’ll bring me back to life
So don’t assume my my silence would mean I’m fine and everything’s alright
Intro Ooo
Chorus
I know there’s so many
Questions unanswered but I’ll grow
Like a seed that is watered
We strive for material possessions
Then we cry and feast on all their illusions
Verse 1
Each day just seems to pass us by
There no thought that occupies
Maybe a dream maybe a hope
Some fickle scheme it quickly
Leaves the mind
Yet Still we find it do easy to forget
Blood sweat and tears our ancestor met
It comes to naught not in your heart
Oh my were living in these times
So we go to church on sunday
Speak of heru then you complain
Story been told through out the age
Hidden from the wise now brought to babes
Chorus
Verse 2
Probably would be ostracized
Too much a risk don’t touch the tithe
Your white as snow you’re garments clean
Come be redeemed come now come join the line
Yet we find it so easy to forgot
Blood sweat and tears our Ancestors met
It comes to naught not in your heart
Oh my we’re living in these times
So we came on the good ship jesus
To this new world and all it’s believers
Afraid to look away from deceivers
Trapped in our minds but can’t conceived it
Chorus
Solo
Chorus Vamp

Ooo we feast on all their illusions
We strive for material possessions then we cry and feast on all their illusions
Ooo

So much out there to keep us trapped in our minds you know

Verse 1
This is not for the pessimist or the optimist
Quite frankly I’m speaking as a realist
Someone who is familiar with the story of Sir Francis the introduction to this new world we are living in
We understand that it has been a business
Authorized servitude by Pope Martin the fifth
Wealth in this system tell me when you get it
They say abolished but it the same
Chorus

The system set longtime bout here
So know what you’re fighting for

Give on to Caesar what he longs for
You better know the system set bout here
Verse 2
The system set away
Schemes and lie they try to tell us
Take us back to the gallows and try to sell us
Try to poison our minds
Hate we own kind
Kill we one another then them talk say we jealous
We’ve got to start a revolution
Spread some more love and not confusion The IMF plan is not to save the poor man
A lie a fleeting illusion
Chorus
So know what you’re fighting for
Think You’ll even the score
Are you willing to start back from zero
The system set longtime bout here
So know what you’re fighting for
And who the dollar you spend it belong to
Give on to Caesar what he longs for
Yuh Better know the system set bout here
Verse 3
Hawkins saw the benefits now its come to this
War and terrorism and a struggling currency
who will escape it when the trader comes to take it IMF you either in it or them squash you like a pumpkin
We understand that it has always been a business but only things we selling is blue water and we beaches
What a situation we are now confronting
They say abolish but it’s the same
Chorus
Know what you’re fighting for
Think You’ll even the score
Are you willing to start back from zero
This system set longtime bout here
So know what you’re fighting for
And who the dollar you spend it belong to
Give on to Caesar what he longs for
Better know the system set bout here
Longtime bout here

Verse 1
The system set yes we check it out
Babylon nah ease up the folly round
Stop me the youth compromise themself

And when you feel say you had enough
I know you feel say pick yo the glock
The vicious cycle to attain only vanity
I know that you got to pay the rent
