Lyrics

Love Is Life

If lovin? is livin?, live it? livin? is givin?, give it
A you control your spirit. Nah let nobody take it
Voices inna we mental? physical, just a rental
Unuh soul is monumental. Rise up!
(Repeat)

As we settle inna we riddem contemplating pon we arrival
Illusions overcome a certain sense of survival
Wallow inna we sorrow, though we think we face a smile
Some whe open doors an? some whe open crack vials
Some whe open minds an? some whe fall from bicycles
Some digest poison an? think a King an? Queen meal
Regardless how we stay, we soon go?an find out what?s real
When time come, we a leave fi get judgement wid no appeal
Them send us go a school fi get degrees in competition
Strive fi get di money and honor false ambition
When truth talks, we nah wan? listen.
Worse off, when love chats too much,
We claim that we don?t know definition
So deeper, we dive inna we our riddem
Reflection pon di life whe we are given
Nuff times we affi back track fi slingshot forward
Lawd God, please help me get closer.

Chorus

Nowadays we affi constantly question
Wha? dem play pon we TV stations
Terrorism talk a di nation
Real life replace entertainment
Top man a claim say him a give way
To destruction of all whe pose threat to our system
Threat to our system?
Causes me fi stand and raise hand like, ?Wha? dat mean?
Same way Vietnamese did a cause threat? Wha? dat mean?
Same way West Africa did a cause threat? Wha? dat mean?
Same way Native America a cause threat? Wha? dat mean?
Same way Black America a cause threat wid dem intellect? Bwoy wha? dat mean??
Lawd, unuh a fart when dis here wold bruk ?part
Total recall fi di air whe dem a charge fa. Wow
Dem a prepare now. See how unuh can purchase oxygen sessions?
Choose fi you flavor? which fruit unuh wan? savor?
Come place fi you order ? mi wan? take a ?New World? fi go
Sit down and watch a bomb by light show
If it did outside your window, boy you?re too close
Unuh better hug fi you family? Grab fi you woman... Rest baby head pon chest
Mek me ask unuh one last question?
unuh at peace with God yet?

{Plain English}

If loving is living, live it? living is giving, give it. You control your spirit. Don?t let anybody take it. Voices in our mental? physical, just a rental. Your soul is monumental. Rise up!

As we settle in our rhythm contemplating upon our arrival, illusions overcome a certain sense of survival. We wallow in our sorrow, though we think on our faces are smiles. Some open doors while some open crack vials. Some open minds while some fall from bicycles. Some digest poison and think that it?s a King and Queen meal. Regardless of how we are, we?re going to find out what?s real. When the time comes, we?ll leave to get judgement with no appeal. They send to school to get degrees in competition. Strive to get the money and honor false ambition. When truth talks, we don?t want to listen. What?s worse, is when love chats too much, we claim that we don?t know the definition. So deeper, we dive into our rhythm. Reflecting on the life that we are given. Enough times we have to back track to slingshot forward. Lord, God, please help me get closer.

Chorus

Nowadays we have to constantly question what they play on our TV stations. Terrorism is the talk of our nation. Real life replaced entertainment. The top guy claims that he will give way to destruction of all that poses threat to our system. Threat to our system? It causes me to stand and raise hands like, ?What does that mean? The same way Vietnamese caused threat? What does that mean? The same way West Africa caused threat? What does that mean? The same way Native America caused threat? What does that mean? The same way Black America caused threat with their intellect? What does that mean?? Lord, they?re going to fart when this here wold breaks apart. Total recall for the air in which they charge for. Wow, they?re preparing now. See how you can purchase oxygen sessions? Choose your flavor? which fruit do you want to savor? Come place your order ? I want to take a ?New World? to go. Sit down and watch a bomb by light show. If it is outside of your window, boy you?re too close. You better hug your family. Grab your woman. Rest baby?s head upon your chest. Let me ask you one last question. Are you at peace with God yet?
