Gentleman Lyrics

I was seeking now I find, yeah

It's not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

This is not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

Joy, boy, let your soul a vibes
Let your voices be heard and make a joyful noise
Joy, boy, full time nuh realize
The truth havi be told to recognize
You nuh see that we a step ina di footsteps of Jah Jah
Hear the "Eden" a talking but dem just can't bother
But step by step nuh so we climb up the ladder
We choose and rights we help another

It's not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

This is not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those desolate faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

Obedience and courage to a higher purpose in life
Conscious of the knowledge
That exists in a the words of the wise
Silence and devotion must we learn
For the one missconnection that we earn
The players of the faithful concern
That the tide it might be turn

It's not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

This is not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those desolate faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

I nuh really matter if your cons are pros
And I nuh really matter if your friends are foes
To be yourself in a "the ideal" so life goes
Righteousness man havi come first

It's not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

Joy, boy, let your soul a vibes
Let your voices be heard and make a joyful noise
Joy, boy, full time nuh realize
The truth havi be told to recognize
You nuh see that we a step ina di footsteps of Jah Jah
Hear the "Eden" a talking but dem just can't bother
But step by step nuh so we climb up the ladder
We choose and rights we help another

It's not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those distant faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces

This is not about class, colour or races
Let's get around and see different places yeah
Put a smile on those desolate faces
Wipe away your sorrow with no traces
