Lyrics:

[English]

They say the sun shines for all

But in some people world, it never shine at all

These roads of flames are catching on fire (ahh)

Showed you I love you, you called me a liar

(Oh no no no no no)

Baby tell me where you gone gone gone

I've been feeling for your love so long

We can praise Jah in the moonlight

Baby if you with me better do right

And I've been gone too long

And I'm hoping that you sing my songs (sing my songs)

I've been on this road for way too long

I've been hoping that we all get along

These roads of flames are catching on fire (ahh)

Showed you I love you, you called me a liar

Give Jah the thanks and praises

I've been on my own all along

But we ain't never left alone lone lone

And if I'm telling you the feeling is wrong

Relax a little friend this won't take too long

And when you're feeling alone

You can call my phone

Is there a better way to go

Teach them something before they lose their soul

Oh no no no, freedom is the road

Oh no no no, coming in from the cold

Tell them not to sell it it's worth more than gold

And guiltiness will catch them in the end

Oh yeah, oh yeah

They'll try to manipulate through you through your pockets (ahh)

Now you're calling gonna fuck with the optic with the vision (ahh)

Trying to control your soul and take control oh no no no (ahh)

No we don't play that game right here to win power (ahh)

Give Jah the thanks and praises

Give Jah all the thanks and praises

Give Jah all the thanks and praises

Give Jah all the thanks and praises

Give Jah all the thanks and praises

Give Jah all the thanks and praises

...

Give Jah the thanks to thanks to

Thanks to thanks to thanks to

Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks

Thanks thanks thanks

Thanks thanks thanks

Thanks thanks thanks thanks and praises (give Jah)

...

Give Jah the thanks and praises
