Oh, it's not an easy road
But everyday we pushing more and more
Watch when they come around
And make them play you for no clown
It's only life lessons we'll use
The smile, the perspective,
Jah guide them so long the way
Why is it now we check it?
Them can't play with fun, no fool
The system said, yes, we check it out
Come on now, ease up, them fall around
compromise themselves for a buck
And when your things say you had enough
I know you feel safe, pick up the clock
The vicious cycle to attain
I know that you got to pay the rent
The pretty gal you are impressed,
Yeah, the politicians them talkin'
Oh Jah, we hope and we pray
they'll change their ways
It's for the good, but don't expect it
Watch when they come around
Just smile with perspective
And make them play a funny clown
It's only life lessons we'll use
Just smile with perspective
You'll guide them along the way
Why is that now we check it?
Them can't play with a no fool
Baby, I will be your knight in shining armor
A river of love you'll find
I will never ever ever disappoint you
Do all the things that you like
And I will be by your side
Forever without you there's no sunlight
And I won't even watch another girl
Cause that is not on my mind
Watch when they come around
Just smile with perspective
and make them play a funny clown
it's only life lessons we'll use
we'll work for a better day
Just smile with perspective,
your guidance along the way
Why is that now we check it?
Them can't play with a no fool
I know your things say you're perfect
So your big dreams will bankroll them
Try once, try twice, try thrice,
fairytale lifestyle, it's not right,
You better get some perspective,
because we all want the same thing
And we got to work for the benefits,
and it a drop at your feet
watch when they come around
and make them play you for no clown
it's only life lessons we'll use
we workin' for a better day,
Now make them play it for no fools
we workin' for a better day,
It's only life blessings for you,
we'll work for a better day
your guidance along the way
Why's that now we check it?
