IN THE TIME I KNOW TO THE WORLD l’M BORN IN
I DONT ASK MUCH OF THE TIME THAT’S PASSING
THE DAYS GET LONG BUT THE YEARS GET SHORTER
YOU CAN HAVE TWO EYES AND STILL BE BLIND
MY HEARTBEAT’S MINE l’VE BEEN DULY SWORN IN
SOME TIME TO WORK A LITTLE TIME FOR RESTING
THERE’S PLENTY OF LAWS BUT NOT MUCH ORDER
FOR WHAT I DO l’M THE ONLY MASTERMIND
WHAT I WANT FROM THE UNIVERSE IS TO KNOW l’M DOING THE RIGHTEOUS THING
TO LIVE AND LAUGH AND LOVE MY FRIEND AND NOT BE A STRANGER IN MY OWN SKIN
WHAT YOU THINK OF ME IS NONE OF MY BUSINESS
YOU CAN FLY AROUND IN YOUR OWN AIRSPACE
WHAT I THINK OF YOU IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS
NOW l’M UP TO MY ASS IN APHORISMS
YOU CANT MAKE THE RULES FOR ME
BUT l’D RATHER BE DEAD THAN BE UNFREE
BUT I’ll GIVE YOU EVERY LATITUDE
HERE COMES ANOTHER FLUFFY PLATITUDE
WHAT I WANT FROM THE UNIVERSE IS SOME PEACE OF MIND AND A PLACE TO STAND
TO USE THE WITS THAT l’VE GOT MY FRIEND TO TAKE MY PLACE IN THE PROMISED LAND
Eb SECTION
WE’VE BEEN BLESSED BY OUR EXISTENCE WE’VE BEEN GIVEN THE RAREST GIFT
WE ALL FEEL THE MIGHTY OCEANS LET US FEEL OUR SPIRITS LIFT
THROUGH THE SECONDS THROUGH THE MINUTES THROUGH THE HOURS AND THROUGH THE DAYS
PAST AND FUTURE NEVER HAPPENED ALL WE HAVE IS HERE TODAY
CHACUN SON GOUT, MA AMIE, CHACUN SA BETISE
HOW GENEROUS THE UNIVERSE I BLESS EVERY DIME I SPEND
THIS IS THE LIFE YOU CHOSE MY SISTER
DONT BLAME GOD FOR THE WAY ITENDS
THROUGH THE WEEKS AND THROUGH THE MONTHS AND THROUGH THE LOST UNCOUNTED YEARS
KEEP THE FAITH KEEPT HE PROMISE COURAGE STALWART VISION CLEAR
CHACUN SON GOUT, MA AMIE, CHACUN SA BETISE AYE MOKO SANE
I DONT CARE WHAT EVERYBODY KNOWS
TO BE YOURSELF CAN NEVER BE NO CRIME
l’M GOING TO STICK ON THE ROAD I CHOSE
IT’S YOUR LIFE BROTHER YOU ONLY GET ONE AT A TIME
WHAT I WANT FROMT HE UNIVERSEIS EVERYTHINGIT HAST O GIVE
THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT TO FAIL THE RIGHT TO LOVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE
