Thinking About My Life
Laying in bed thinking 'bout my life
Tears came to my eyes
Thinking 'bout my past and picturing my future
And how meh love King Selassie I
Mad with myself cause I've done many wrongs
Still I yearn to do right
So open up your heart and live life pure
Wickedness ah what we come to fight
Remember people of the earth
Be humble and always be calm
Be focused even when it hurts
And we can get through the storm
Life is full of joy, life is full of pain
People do not give up
'Cause we can bear the struggle
And we can take the strain
People of the earth live up
'Cause I know that we will rise
I'm sure that we will elevate
I know that we will rise
So I beg you younger children just concentrate
Laying in bed thinking 'bout my life
Tears came to my eyes
Thinking 'bout my past and picturing my future
And how meh love King Selassie I
Mad with myself cause I've done many wrongs
Still I yearn to do right
So open up your heart and live life pure
Wickedness ah what we come to fight
My children stop the violence
Let us be peaceful and free
Come together and seek repentance
Strength will grow in a unity
Uplift the youths show them the way
Teach them the positive laws
Try to better your life do not go astray
Get rid of those negative flaws
Aum! Aum! Aum! Aum!
Laying in bed thinking 'bout my life
Tears came to my eyes
Thinking 'bout my past and picturing my future
And how meh love King Selassie I
Mad with myself cause I've done many wrongs
Still I yearn to do right
So open up your heart and live life pure
Wickedness ah what we come to fight
Ooh ooh yeah ay yeah Jah reign
Rastafari is my king king yeah yeah yeah I must obey
I know that we will rise
I'm sure that we will elevate
I know that we will rise
So I beg you younger children just concentrate
Laying in bed thinking 'bout my life
Tears came to my eyes
Thinking 'bout my past and picturing my future
And how meh love King Selassie I
Mad with myself cause I've done many wrongs
Still I yearn to do right
So open up your heart and live life pure
Wickedness ah what we come to fight
