No smile come without first a cry There’s no such thing as a sweet goodbye The righteous lose to evil, we fail often when we try But the people of this music straight refuse to live the lie So often dreams they go and they, run away Nasty bills come through the door and eat ya pay Often clouds they come prevent us feel them sunny rays so When we fall, get left behind, we sing for better days now Stand up, defy we pump that soul rock reggae Bump the ride we live we strive to soul rock reggae Come together live the truth with soul rock reggae I hit your heart from in the booth with soul rock reggae Pump the groove and ride the wave with soul rock reggae Defeat the lies and live the truth with soul rock reggae Breath the air, the trees the leaves with soul rock reggae Feel the the beat from deep within with soul rock reggae Cause I don’t wanna to sell my soul! And I don’t need a brand new ride! I just wanna keep my wheels and I gotta get by I just wanna live this life! And I just wanna see them grow! I just wanna share this love and l wanna let go Let go, let go, let go Modern life presents many avenues Right here right now we feel now choice do you Only one action, one destiny, one voice For what has gone dry must now become moist now Disconnected worlds rejoined and rejoiced You used to think you care, but now you got no choice This wealth of things, just figments and toys Spiritual richness set woman and man from girl and boy Stand up, defy we pump that soul rock reggae Bump and ride we live we strive with soul rock reggae Come together live the truth with soul rock reggae Hit the heart from in the booth with soul rock reggae Pump the groove and ride the wave with soul rock reggae Defeat the lies and live the truth with soul rock reggae Breath the air, the trees the leaves with soul rock reggae Feel the the beat from deep beneath with soul rock reggae Cause I don’t wanna sell my soul! And I don’t need a brand new ride! I just wanna keep my wheels and I gotta get by I just wanna live this life! I just wanna see them grow! I just wanna share this love and l wanna let go, let go! Let go, let go And this system you know It's been getting me down, down, down Oh, and this system you know, oh you know They come quiet you know, quiet you now Well, they can take me now
