"Ten Times Around The Sun" lyrics
"Ten Times Around The Sun"
I don't want to run
Ten times around the sun
Chasing every crumb
Oh yes I've seen what it becomes
I don't want to be
Lost in my reality
Or be hostage to these dreams
That you say you've got for me
Gotta be moving at my own pace
With blessings and grace
Travelled long days, just looking some peace
Cannot complain for this life has brought me
Many up days, yet still man just want free
From these constraints that we place upon self
Others pile on, oh the heaviness felt
Obligations, when not met it's gets harsh
People forget so fast
I don't want to run
Ten times around the sun
Chasing every crumb
Oh yes I've seen what it becomes
I don't want to be
Lost in my reality, yeah
Or be hostage to these dreams
That you say you've got for me
Trodding down this road can be lonely as you know
But essential for your growth and sometimes you haffi (wah)
More times you haffi move with determined attitude and preserve, protect your mood
'Cause the heathens active (Jah)
And they don't take a break so I'm making no mistake, haffi wise up and be great
'Cause your destiny at stake, investing in your faith, simplify it down to basics
See life is what you make it
I don't want to run
Ten times around the sun
Chasing every crumb
Oh yes I've seen what it becomes
I don't want to be
Lost in my reality
Or be hostage to these dreams
That you say you've got for me
I don't want to run
Ten times around the sun
Chasing every crumb
Oh yes I've seen what it becomes
I don't want to be
Lost in my reality
Or be hostage to these dreams
That you say you've got for me
I don't want to run
Ten times around the sun
Chasing every crumb
Oh yes I've seen what it becomes
I don't want to be
Lost in my reality
Or be hostage to these dreams
That you say you've got for me
