Paradise

Over the hills and the valley

There is a place that is so stress free

Come with me, come with me

Come with me, come with me

Where the kids wear smiles everyday

And grownups don't have no bills to pay

Birds sing so sweet in the trees

Dew fall so thick on the leaves

Ay, come come come come come let us fly

Let me dry your eyes and leave your fears behind

Who waan stay, make dem stay, me done make up me mind

Me gone, me gone, me gone, ay

Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, that fulfill me wants and me needs

Paradise, where truths reign like hail from the sky

Whoa, Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, that fulfill me wants and me needs

Paradise, ay, I'm gone, yay

But for those who find it hard to overstand

Paradise is the cleansing of the mind

Purification of the heart and the soul, yes

Don't let the devil take control

Some a look fi paradise inna physical form

Paradise it is a state of mind

And if you search long enough, hard enough

And a you will, and a you will find

Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, that fulfill me wants and me needs

Paradise, where truths fall like hail from the sky

Yay, well I'm hurting, deep inside of me

And I'm aching, still no one no see

Daddy's asleep, don't you wake him up

'Cause only when he's asleep

He find paradise as he sleep

I saw gun smoke from the rifle

One man is down, three more kids get stifled

All because of mistaken identity

Ooh wee, ooh wee, ooh wee

Well we won't tarry where they don't like us

Babylon, I'm sorry, I refuse to be your slave

I'm free from your tyranny

Ooh wee, ooh wee, ooh wee, ay

If you keep on starving my kind

Then you ain't no friend of mine

And this is where my people draw the line

We come a, we gone a, we come a

Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, that fulfill me wants and me needs

Paradise, where truths fall like hail from the sky

Yay, Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, that fulfill me wants and me needs

Paradise, where truths fall like hail from the sky

Yay

Well I and I a yard from yaso

'Cause yaso a pure hold down, yanno me a say

Yeah, call upon King Selassie I name and dare and move along, yeah

Yeah, we roll with the punches, yeah

Back beat, I roll with the punches

Front page, I roll with the punches, yeah

This is something I want to stick

Inna the back of your mind every time

Here is where the pressure starts, and where the pressure lies

So find paradise nuh, inna your mind nuh, inna your step nuh

Paradise, where there's no envy or greed

Paradise, where Jah fulfill your wants and your needs

Paradise, where truths fall like hail from the sky

Come a, come a, Paradise, where there's no envy or greed
