《Save Your Soul》歌词

[00:00:01] I was a dead man out in the cold

[00:00:03] Life was the pits and I was deep in a hole

[00:00:05] Just about to give up then lo and behold

[00:00:08] A voice from within said: "Save your soul".

[00:00:19] Hit it!

[00:00:42] Yo brothers and sisters all around the globe

[00:00:44] I got a story yeah it's got to be told.

[00:00:47] To my family friends fans even my foes

[00:00:49] Like this ya this is how it goes.

[00:00:52] I was out in the world without an aim or a goal

[00:00:54] Out a school and out a control.

[00:00:57] Set in my ways yeah stuck in a mold

[00:01:00] And going the wrong way down a one way road.

[00:01:02] Young and bold I didn't wanna be told

[00:01:05] I use to steal and brag about the stuff I stole.

[00:01:08] Then one bright day my mind got blown

[00:01:10] When a voice from within said: "Save your soul".

[00:01:22] My mind got blown!

[00:01:33] I didn't listen no I didn't want to be told

[00:01:36] Things were looking up and I was on a roll.

[00:01:38] I was a rude boy and a Romeo

[00:01:41] And anywhere I went I started to show.

[00:01:44] I had money women and plenty of gold

[00:01:46] And a over inflated E. G. O.

[00:01:49] I was a dead man but I didn't know

[00:01:51] Until a voice from within said: "Save your soul".

[00:02:16] Yo! You see me? Original rough neck youth

[00:02:19] From up so round so down so in so out so bout so.

[00:02:23] You see me? Is better a boy don't even see me

[00:02:26] A me a run things this year expensive and dear.

[00:02:30] Garn clear come wid it rude bwoy

[00:02:33] Then me nar tell you maan.

[00:02:35] My life was like a movie and I was playing the role

[00:02:38] Of a black youth living in the ghetto.

[00:02:40] Where the action was that's where I'd go

[00:02:43] Right or wrong I'd be going with the flow.

[00:02:46] But what you reap is what you sow

[00:02:48] It's like a karma the bad you do will follow

[00:02:51] You around and I was going down

[00:02:53] Right down with my face in the ground.

[00:02:56] Two hands bound to a siren sound

[00:02:59] None of my so called friends anywhere to be found.

[00:03:01] And as I thought to myself in life your alone

[00:03:04] A voice from within said: "Anyone home?"

[00:03:07] Yes Lord! Well here I be

[00:03:09] If I ain't ready yet I go never be.

[00:03:12] I'm sorry for the things that I did before

[00:03:14] Believe me Lord I won't do them no more.

[00:03:17] I'll be an arrow Lord if You'll be my bow

[00:03:19] Anywhere I'm sent I'd gladly go.

[00:03:22] I'll be a witness yeah all around the world

[00:03:25] To every man every woman every boy and girl.

[00:03:48] Well I was born in the ghetto where the strong survive

[00:03:50] And with a will to strive I began to rise.

[00:03:53] From seventy nine or was it seventy five

[00:03:55] When reggae music began to open my eyes.

[00:03:58] About the truth the rights and Jah the most high

[00:04:01] And how to achieve a little pie in the sky.

[00:04:03] Inspirited? Yeah I was totally elevated

[00:04:06] To the point where I decided to chat the mike.

[00:04:08] But my direction was not to only those of my complexion

[00:04:11] But the brown yellow red and white man.

[00:04:13] Critics criticise cynics cynicise

[00:04:16] Any entertainer with a message they victimise.

[00:04:18] But in this world of sin its no surprise

[00:04:21] So with the media I sympathise.

[00:04:24] I hear the rich mans laughter hear the poor mans cries

[00:04:27] See hypocrites advertise there lies through their eyes.

[00:04:30] Everyone's born everyone dies

[00:04:32] But only God's children get the prize.

[00:04:34] Don't be a fool be cool come on and get wise

[00:04:37] Yeah wize up! no compromize.

[00:04:40] And listen to the voice that resides within the mind

[00:04:43] Cause God has sent a guide to all mankind.

[00:04:45] The choice is yours life above or death below

[00:04:48] It's up to yo! To save your soul.
