Mike Love - Gonna Make It songtekst
Je score:
Everywhere I been, I been learning how to get to wherever I am And where I am is where I'm going and I'm going to the promised land I don't always know my direction, but in faith and Love I overstand That if I ask up for guidance, I'm guided by the almighty hand And every time I'm feeling inspired, I take my guitar in my two hands Jah Love is all that I man require to reach that holy Zion land And I won't let them take it away, no I man, I won't be led astray And I don't need to ride nobody's coattails, and I don't need no one to hold my hand I'm gonna make it on my own two feet I'm gonna make it on my blood, sweat and tears I'm gonna make it, not gonna fake it, no way They said get a degree but it wasn't for me Higher education of the Almighty through music, teach me Love, teach me to use it All I ever wanted was to spread Jah Love, and the only way that I could rise above was music Sweet Jah reggae music So every note I plays is to give praise, that's why I play guitar and I sing And I wouldn't trade these blisters on my fingers for no diamond rings I sing just for the Love of Jah music, to lift you up when you are tattered and worn And if I sound a little bit hoarse it's cause I been singing since the day I was born And I just wanna sing a little bit more, and I'm sure that you can feel me Don't need you to know just where I'm coming from, but I need you to feel me So take it and make it your own song And don't you let them take it away No don't you let them lead you astray You're gonna make it on your own two feet You're gonna make it on your blood, sweat and tears You're gonna make it, not gonna fake it, no way I will never sell my soul to them, so many already givin' in, dem a caught up in confusion Suffering delusions All this dirt that we been digging in Searching for something that we will never find Oh mankind we can't let them take it away We won't let them lead us astray And we don't need no president to lead us And we don't need no general to take a stand We're gonna make it on our own two feet We're gonna make it on our blood, sweat and tears We're gonna make it, not gonna fake it, no way Can you feel me, my heart pumping in my chest Can you feel me, oh people please say yes I need you to feel me, this is the real me, the reason I'm singing, the Love that I'm bringing is pure, unfiltered for sure Cause in my mind I saw a vision of peace Every man, every woman, every child, one family All singing together in one perfect harmony It's not so far away, we're gonna make it someday
