	Our Thoughts One man’s morality can’t be another mans legality So don’t nurture the seeds seeds of negativity Or they will grow or they will grow Or they will grow oh ya or they will grow Big old man sitting behind the desk barking orders to me I live an honest life I never never hurt nobody If you look into my eyes you would realize what I can see It’s a mixed up world with too many laws for morality Mr. bossman I need a raise you got me working all seven days Through my gate come Mr. postman with dem bills I man mus have fi pay From a Boston to the South Shore Noddaclu crew I lean a pon Through dis ya reggae band and all dem fans show mus soon go on Preach one love and positive vibe will keep you alive One love and positive vibe will keep you alive But its plain and simple to see dem a talk through dem plastic teeth Some a wear lock pon dem head but see black and white instead Show pon dance with their wolf clothes but me true bredren dem a know Reggae beach day down a Hull we gonna play till di sun a come Concrete jungle I nah gwan a fret reggae dance party is a sure bet Some a dem a searching for truth ya can’t even find it under your roof You can give all you have in the end Don’t mean your gonna make a true friend Duck and Hide and runaway maybe catch I but not today Send spaceship up way up to Mars nah ghetto youth have candy bars You mus focus pon the right foot for soon come rubble and soot You will not be here in the end tell it to your enemy tell it to your friend Just some of dem thoughts
