Naâman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl when my time comes I run kiss my darling
What a joy to go rest under the rays
I'm going on and on to do so
Let the thing start 'pon a roof top
Hold the vibe plug a mic let the loop talk
We got the trees them burning like at Woodstock
We are just fine living life as if it would stop
Mi nah go wait 'til the end of my days
To melt in the waves of creation
I don't believe in this God that they pray
Material things not my religion
Watch me on the way out
'Cause I got so much fi let go
This system blow my ego
It would work even if I'm gone
So maybe give mi some time
Give mi some time, some time
Just enough for mi to get by
Simplicity's not inferior
My brother life could be easier
If we just let it go reconnect simple joys
That ah gwaan around the corner
'Cause none of we no need no captivity
We no need no captivity for sure
All we need is a deep integrity
To carry love everywhere we go now
Many people sell out a life fi get rich
But still them feel so poor
No badda try ah take it away from mi
'Cause I need it more and more
Watch mi on the way out
'Cause I got so much fi let go
This system blow mi ego
So I'm gone
Some time
Give mi some time, some time
Just enough for me to get by
Oh some time
Give mi some time
Some time just enough for mi
A free ride is a good ride
Starting it from nowhere it ah end up worldwide
Everywhere I go I feel the presence of my old tribe
Watching over me every time I let my soul fly
We getting so high and that is alright
Me just ah love how you shine inna my blue sky
In my blue eye yes mi blue eye
Without your smile inside it would be so sad
Inna the morning mi go rock it and sway
And melt into the waves of the ocean
I don't believe in this God that you pray
Material things not my religion
Watch mi on the way out
'Cause I got so much fi let go
This system blow mi ego
I'm gone
Some time
Give some time, some time
Just enough for mi to get by
Oh some time
Give mi some time
Some time just enough for mi
