No smile come without first a cry
There’s no such thing as a sweet goodbye
The righteous lose to evil, we fail often when we try
But the people of this music straight refuse to live the lie
So often dreams they go and they, run away
Nasty bills come through the door and eat ya pay
Often clouds they come prevent us feel them sunny rays so
When we fall, get left behind, we sing for better days now
Stand up, defy we pump that soul rock reggae
Bump the ride we live we strive to soul rock reggae
Come together live the truth with soul rock reggae
I hit your heart from in the booth with soul rock reggae
Pump the groove and ride the wave with soul rock reggae
Defeat the lies and live the truth with soul rock reggae
Breath the air, the trees the leaves with soul rock reggae
Feel the the beat from deep within with soul rock reggae
Cause I don’t wanna to sell my soul!
And I don’t need a brand new ride!
I just wanna keep my wheels and I gotta get by
I just wanna live this life!
And I just wanna see them grow!
I just wanna share this love and l wanna let go
Let go, let go, let go
Modern life presents many avenues
Right here right now we feel now choice do you
Only one action, one destiny, one voice
For what has gone dry must now become moist now
Disconnected worlds rejoined and rejoiced
You used to think you care, but now you got no choice
This wealth of things, just figments and toys
Spiritual richness set woman and man from girl and boy
Stand up, defy we pump that soul rock reggae
Bump and ride we live we strive with soul rock reggae
Come together live the truth with soul rock reggae
Hit the heart from in the booth with soul rock reggae
Pump the groove and ride the wave with soul rock reggae
Defeat the lies and live the truth with soul rock reggae
Breath the air, the trees the leaves with soul rock reggae
Feel the the beat from deep beneath with soul rock reggae
Cause I don’t wanna sell my soul!
And I don’t need a brand new ride!
I just wanna keep my wheels and I gotta get by
I just wanna live this life!
I just wanna see them grow!
I just wanna share this love and l wanna let go, let go!
Let go, let go
And this system you know
It's been getting me down, down, down
Oh, and this system you know, oh you know
They come quiet you know, quiet you now
Well, they can take me now
