Alright, we're missing somethin’ though, where's that kick drum at

It's about letting everybody know your inner truth, who you are, what your about, what you wanna go after
Don't be ashamed, let' em all know
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, I write it on the wall
Let the people know how you flow and where you wanna go
Given a nothing but the truth heart and soul SO
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, write it on the wall
Let the people know if you fall and when you need a call
Dancing it up into the rhythm bear it all
So boom, some-a need
A little bit of love and affection,
Get it from my family who give me the direction
Sending me off at times, but still standing by my side
Setting me up for nothing but a good ride, people say
Give it away, give it way, give it away if it’s just not your day
Live like no tomorrow and live like there’s no yesterday
Tonight I feel fine, got a real good vibe
Got my best friend by my side
In my hand I got a pint
Singing woh-oh-oh oh
I love jazz, blues, funk, reggae rock n’ roll,
And if you got your dancing shoes tonight
And your thinking about mine,
Then look me in the eye, gimme the sign
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, I write it on the wall
Let the people know how you flow and where you wanna go
Given a nothing but the truth heart and soul SO
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, write it on the wall
Let the people know
Yie!
In the summertime, you know you’ll find me smilin’
Walkin down the beach, spliff coffee sunrisin’
Thinking’ about my day and how to manifest all my dreams in my life someway
And then I see those ships go sailing by
Cant help but think about the day I’m sailing to the sky
So Im a live today in the best way making the day
Thinking about the words I still need to say
Like when I kiss you yeah you
The world shakes and moves and grooves
And if your feeling’ the same way so,
Then let your heart go
Screaming it loud let the whole world know
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, I write it on the wall
Let the people know how you flow and where you wanna go
Given a nothing but the truth heart and soul SO
Write It On the Wall, write it on the wall, write it on the wall
Let the people know if you fall and when you need a call
Dancing it up into the rhythm bear it all
GO!
Alright this one goes out worldwide
It’s time to write your story on the wall
Let em’ know who you are today not tomorrow, not yesterday nows the time

When your life dream seem like they’re fresh outta sight
And your putting up a sleep just to putting up a fight
And your bank accounts low, overdraw on cost
Just remember not all those who wander are lost
Let’s get lost , Come get lost
I think I need a vacation,
Or just at least get away for a while
And I don’t care what do
But as long as me and you are together
Pack your bags, lets go for an adventure
Need no maps, appreciate the weather
Lets get lost and forget about the world that you and me left behind
Let’s get lost, let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost, let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost
No compass no sign only need you by my side
On al long Sumer day on a backroad drive
With no direction home no reception on the phone
Just rollin’ with the breeze like we’re Rolling Stones, wo-oh
Just like a fresh spring river flow, wo-oh
City to the beaches to the mountain snow
It’s a win whichever way like a rigged coin toss
Cause we’re in this thing together come-a, come-a, come-a lets get lost
Let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost, let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost
Woo
Give us a one way ticket you and me in the wild
Leave a meager at the tone gonna be gone for a while
We on a walkabout, east west north and south
And that’s what I’m talking about
It really don’t matter if it rain or shine
You can rest your head on my shoulder anytime
We’re headed straight for the sky
And top of the treetops
You and me in the unknot come on and lets get lost
Let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost, let’s get lost baby
Come get lost, come get lost with me
Let’s get lost
Let’s get lost
Let’s get lost
Let’s get lost
Let’s get lost
Let’s get lost

I got every reason
I got every reason why I love today
And I got every reason why it all went that way
I know every reason why Im in love with you
And I know every reason why you don’t love me too
Sometimes you fall and just don’t know
Some of them days’ll pick you up
Some of them days’ll knock you down
Some of them day’ll set you straight
Some of them days will spin you round
Some of them days you’ll get it wrong
Some of them days you’ll get it right
Some of them days the only thing I can think about
Is holding you tonight
I wanna hold you tonight
Sometimes it feels like my heart is convincing me to stay
And sometimes it feels like my hearts telling me just walk away
Sometimes it feel like I’m on the right track heading for the sun
And sometimes it feels l like it’s over even before it begun
Sometimes you fall and just don’t know
Some of them days’ll pick you up
Some of them days’ll knock you down
Some of them day’ll set you straight
Some of them days will spin you round
Some of them days you’ll get it wrong
Some of them days you’ll get it right
Some of them days the only thing I can think about
Is holding you tonight
I wanna hold you tonight
Changes in season got me feeling like I found my heart agin
Next thing I know that felling goes the winter cold is closing in
After the low then comes the high
For new life to grow old ways must die
That how it goes, no wonder why
When it gets the darkest we move to light now
No matter which weather that comes my way
The storms in life might bring
I remember this time and sing
So I say I let go just to hold hold on
Some of them days’ll pick you up
Some of them days’ll knock you down
Some of them day’ll set you straight
Some of them days will spin you round
Some of them days you’ll get it wrong
Some of them days you’ll get it right
Some of them days the only thing I can think about
Is holding you tonight
I wanna hold you tonight
Let go just to hold hold on
Let go just to hold hold on

When I wake up,
And I see your smiling face,
No make-up, and you still brighten up the place,
Just for our eyes, wouldn’t that be nice
When I dream, I know they’re meant for me
But in my dreams, you and me is what I see
So I say, I’m gonna dream the night away

We’re just a bunch of stardust, stardust
Floatin’ around in the atmosphere
So I say come over and float over here
It’s all around, it apart of us,
We’re just a bunch of stardust, stardust
Floating’ around in the atmosphere
So I say come over and float over here
When it comes time,
For us to close our eyes tonight
All I need is a smile from you to send me right
Off dreaming of us, a bunch of stardust, stardust, stardust
A bunch of stardust, stardust, stardust
A bunch of stardust, stardust, stardust

Check Your Heart
03:51

Check your heart, what does it say
Please don’t let this fade away
Is it unsafe this temporary love I crave
I know this might not last too long,
My hungry heart for you is burning strong
And I know the time will come to move on
But my memories of you will always live on
Check your heart, what does it say
Please don’t let this fade away
Is it unsafe this temporary love I crave
Check your heart, it is flatlined
There’s no way I was in my right mind
It’s so unsafe this temporary love I crave
I think about you all the time,
Replaying that whole night in my mind
If I close my eyes, I see your smile
So I think I’ll stick with my memories for a while
I remember first time that I met your girl,
We were chillin’ outside at the reggae show
You were bouncing to the bass
And banging’ to beat,
so I walked up to join your skanking feet
And we danced to the music like we had it all planned
Felt like we knew each other from a different land
Times like those I feel most alive
Wish we could go back to that night
This is how you make me feel
Check your heart, what does it say
Please don’t let this fade away
Is it unsafe this temporary love I crave
Check your heart, it is it line
There’s no way I’ll forget our time
It’s so beautiful this temporary love I crave
Temporary love I crave
Temporary love I crave
Temporary love I crave
Temporary love

Up To Me (Acoustic)
05:04
|
|||
When it’s all said done and its up to me
I’ll grab my dog and set sail to the open sea
With the fire sunset crashing down on me
With a little bit of love and a little destiny
I’ll find my way and all the words to say
How much I truly love you each and every single way
Well I’ll find me a spot that we love the most
We travel from city city
And coast to coast
Gonna find our way someday oh yea
If it was up to me and I held the right key
I’d set all my stray people and the animals free
And give the whole world a nice song to hear
And everyone unhappy a smile ear to ear
You know if I could find a way to all the money in the world
Light it up in smoke and let the story be told
That your status of wealth is not the story of you
It’s the story of society under voodoo
Of the rich and evil and of the corrupt
People never gave a fuck a never could get enough
You could look to the sky, look to the you
But to me it doesn’t really matter what you do
But now your home, grab the loved one that your loving on
And when you find yourself all alone
Don’t live your life with your glass half full
No live your life with your glass overflown
And when you need a friend
You can call me anytime
And I will be there right beside you
Waiting out the clouds until we see some sunshine
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
Yeah I would lay down the law
And unleash on this world
so they could see it like me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
I gotta sail,
Yeah I wanna sail with the moon
I’ll be gone today
Good friend gonna see you really soon
I’m on my way
Would you sail with me
Sailing in the sun
Yeah gonna sail to be free
So sing me your song
If your my true love
Sing it for the oceans
And for the skies above
We’re on our way
Got everything we need
Got a little bit of loving, yeah
And a little destiny
We’re on our way
