lyrics

Bad mind people are no fun
Mi nuh like dem none
Dem chat nuff mout run
Watch ah him say ‘One’
Him did mean ‘A ton’
Each lie come undone
No tale can be spun
Story neva done

Blessings to one, anyone, everyone
Feel nice you are someone
Mi naw go defend mi self to no one
I’m too busy dancing in the sun

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in, oh
Sweet time now
Forget everything that has been
Feel sweet within

When life is no fun
Want argument? None
Want good? Nose must run
Just action. Take one
Multiply a ton
Web won’t come undone
Ah so tale get spun
Ah so story done

Blessings to one, anyone, everyone
Feel nice you are someone
Mi naw go defend mi self to no one
I’m too busy dancing in the sun

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in, oh
Sweet time now
Forget everything that has been
Feel sweet within

All I’ve got is now now
So I’ll make this vow
I’ll take on no stress
Not focus on the mess
Keep loved ones real close
And stop to smell a rose

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in, oh
Sweet time now
Forget everything that has been
Feel sweet within

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in, oh
Sweet time now
Forget everything that has been
Feel sweet within

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in, oh
Sweet time now
Forget everything that has been
Feel sweet within

Sweet time now
Let the sun kiss up my skin
Sweet breezes blowing in
