CHORUS:
Is it somethin' I said or somethin' I've done that's making me feel this way? Ok; Is it somethin' I said or that I've done, that makes me feel like I'm the fortunate one? Yeah I...
1st Verse:
Never felt like this before; You're the one I want and who I've been asking for; You're the one I want for life; That's reason why I made you my wife; Do you remember when you said yes?; It definitely made me feel blessed, and our experience has made me feel stronger now, yeah; Individuals in the physical trying to keep it simple as things in life effect the thoughts in our heads; Is it somethin' I said? Is it somethin' I said?
2nd Verse:
Want to help you where I can; Your life has plans and that I can understand; We both have to live our lives, for real; And work together until it's right; I have a confession; I'm only a man with the love in the palm of your hand and there are things I'll do and say that might make you mad, but I'm an individual in the physical, trying to keep it simple as things in life effect the thoughts in my head; Is it somethin' I said? Is it somethin' I said?

INTRO:
Hey yo! This is Kopious DK1; Lord have mercy, I just want to say; Yo mon it's been a long time, mon, a mighty long time.
CHORUS:
Long time it's been a rugged road; Now I got to fill my cup; Long time it's been a rugged road now I got to fill it up. Long time it's been a rugged; Long time it's been a rugged road.
1st Verse:
Born into a system of deception which needs redirection; Don't want to live in detention surrounded by weapons and guns, weighing in at many tons; Can I ask about the system's intention? After some thought and reflection I have another question; Whoppnin' with this world separation? It's hard to know, when I watch our lives flow, that violence still grows, but I'll pray anyway. I live it up every season, give me one reason why should we live in coruption? Don't want to beg for no pardon, hear my flow harden, upon the version now.
2nd Verse:
Man has made a mess they're hypocritical mockers; Stirring up distress between their sisters and brothers; Soldiers take a rest put out your anger; War has gone so long you must forget why you slander and through the towns and inner cities nuff people dead; They go along without pity; Never forget about destruction of ecology; Man of war not caring for the Earth's property; Test this school you best get back on your mule; You better go back to start and understand why you're a fool; You cannot catch the train nothing your ticket is saying; You better go on your mule and lead it right down the lane in vain; Why why, why must it go this way?
3rd Verse:
People, people you must realise that the system separates and it is made up of lies; Lets' all get together and dance and unite; Correct all of man's plight; People, people you must realise we're from different color culture but we're from the same light; Let's all get together and dance and unite; Is it for equality we fight?

INTRO: You've got choices... This is Kopious DK1...
CHORUS:
Life is just the way it is; You've got choices, and that's how it is; Conditioned on a mission with decisions yeah life is just the way it is. (x2)
1st Verse:
There are things that make my head spin; Trying to hold it down now where should I begin? Right here; Trying to live life alright I try to love and this and that; That's everything, alright; Time now to put it to the test; What am I gonna lose? Nothing more, nothing less; Always giving thanks and praise and bless bless; Negative emotions I oppress while I stay simple easy, care for the needy; I don't go hard I go easy; When I find time to kick a little rhyme to make my mind calm and free; I bless bless when I'm feeling restless, sussing out life's messes; One thing I see that's clear unto me as I sing this message; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time ok.
2nd Verse:
No more war; What are we fighting for? I'll tell you what for; Control and money; When most people go along and talk it sounds funny; System's raised a bunch of greedy money hungry people who nah make no friends; All they really want is money and things, and people would tell a lie; Just so they can be more greedy; Be individual while in the physical, and always remember to keep it simple; Now I'm not talking cheesy, but life isn't easy; And we have changes to make in the meantime; Whatever you need; We really need to quit this illegitimate 100% greedy money; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time; Stop wasting time if you're wasting time ok.
