Life's Sweet
Jesse Royal Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't trust the contrast, so...
A jubilation turn nothing abomination
Want get a huge station,
I said it won't be too long
If life was a thing that money could buy
We couldn't have any poorer
And that is why me choose Rastafari
Wake up this morning, couldn't find a ting
No water, bread, not a thing to eat
Inna my face temptation staring me
But Life's sweet Lord
Life's sweet Lord
Me astra A80 calling me
That kind of venture is not for me
Hungry years but we far from weak
Life's sweet Lord (Life's sweet Lord)
There is a zillion ways to the top of the hill
But the view remains the same
Many waves on a rock shall be ashamed
Said don't just get wet when it rains
Mental discipline, a form of giving in
Anxiety different from adrenaline
Let the words of the wise be your medicine
Exhuberance begins within
Far be the joker make a deal with the devil
A firgottin' til this one second
Tell me, don't put the man rebel
What you see is what you gettin'
Me no Hyde and Jackal
Don't forget my traitor
Do them smiles seem true?
Like Judas these things just a wait for the cue
Sell it is no wagon minding natty Avenue
Neither inna make can since nigh high can you?
Wake up this morning, couldn't find a ting
No water, bread, not a thing to eat
Inna my face temptation staring me
But Life's sweet Lord
Life's sweet Lord
Astra A80 calling me
That kind of venture is not for me
Hungry years but we far from weak
Life's sweet Lord (Life's sweet Lord)
I must say some offer you vehicles
Some of you have tried it
Some days arrive without no money in your pocket
Still I see a night without no current i'nna dem socket
Don't fret my bigger yearning, jah no forget it
No job no drama abeg ya' don't forget da racket
All the fate and no be too sporadic
Work for what you want and my brother you will have it
I know this ain't no typical topic
But Jacqueline will make a deal with the devil
Half i gwan important this boy circle
Tony talk but he put the man a rebel
What you see is what you get
Me I no Hyde and Jeckel
Don't forget my traitor
Do them smiles seem true?
Like Judas these things just a wait for the cue
Sell it is no wagon minding natty Avenue
Neither inna make can since nigh high can you?
Trubulation turn nothing abomination
Want get a huge station,
I said it won't be too long
Tribulation turn nothing abomination
Want get a huge station,
I said it won't be too long
Aaaah Jah make river, so where was I?
Jah create the sun so we have light
And Jah make day and a make night
Hmmm, some guy...
