[00:39.29] Everywhere I been, I been learning how to get to wherever I am
[00:46.22] And where I am is where I'm going, and I'm going to the promised land
[00:54.38] And I don't always know my direction, but in faith and Love I always stand
[01:01.83] That if I ask up for guidance, I'm guided by the almighty hand
[01:09.88] And every time I'm feeling inspired, I take my guitar in my two hands
[01:17.46] Jah Love is all that I man require to reach that holy Zion land
[01:25.23] And I won't (oh) let them take it away
[01:32.97] No I man (oh), I won't be led astray, no
[01:40.67] And I don't need to ride nobody's Coattails
[01:44.65] And I don't need no one to hold my hand
[01:48.26] I'm gonna make it on my own two feet
[01:51.96] I'm gonna make it on my blood, sweat and tears
[01:56.05] I'm gonna make it, not gonna fake it, no way, no

[02:18.29] They said get a degree, but it wasn't for me
[02:21.44] Higher education of the Almighty through music (music)
[02:24.75] Teach me Love, teach me to use it
[02:27.24] All I ever wanted was to spread Jah Love, and the only way that I could rise above was music (music)
[02:32.58] Sweet Jah reggae music
[02:34.63] So every note I plays is to give praise
[02:38.42] That's why I play guitar and I sing
[02:42.04] And I wouldn't trade these blisters on my fingers for no diamond rings, no way
[02:49.40] I sing just for the Love of Jah music
[02:53.38] To pick you up when you are tattered and worn
[02:57.27] And if I sound a little bit hoarse, it's 'cause I been singing since the day I was born
[03:04.92] And I (I) just wanna sing a little bit more
[03:10.83] And I'm sure that you can feel me (feel me)
[03:16.02] Don't need you to know just where I'm coming from, but I need you to feel me yeah (feel me)
[03:23.91] So you can go take it and make it your own song yo
[03:28.09] And don't (oh) you let them take it away
[03:34.71] No, no, don't (oh) you let them lead you astray, no
[03:43.13] You're gonna make it on your own two feet
[03:47.07] You're gonna make it on your blood, sweat and tears
[03:51.15] You're gonna make it, not gonna fake it, no way, no
