Lyrics

Break Da Riddim

Looking for light, Looking for stars
Something to follow, some place to start
Where do we go now tell me
Running from this life onto the next
Breaking out of all the typical physical, search for material
I want something more

Waited for silver, waited for gold
Worked in the heat of the sun to the cold
Broke every boundary now tell me what ive got to show for

Aah break the rhythm
Aah break the rhythm of this (x2)

Breaking the chains, leaving the past
Nothin to restrain me at last
Look at me now do you see
A stitch out of line or a bruise on my cheek no
Theres a line of people like the old me
Stuck in time and too afraid to leave
But I wont be lied to, I wont deceive
You've got a problem, feel free to leave

This is the moment this is the light
All that I need is here in my sight
Welcome to breaking the rhythm,
Break, break the rhythm
This is the life

(KEN)

Aah break the rhythm
Aah break the rhythm of this (x2)
(never gonna stop breaking, break it down for me, breakadee breakadee break break, break da ri- da ri- da riddim )

As you get higher look to the ground
Don't loose the roots that fasten you down
Thank what you've got, where your from, what you've found
And hold it to your heart let me hear you say
I wont have it any other way
Any other way
Any other way
Any other way
