Righteous

All I wanna be
All I wanna be (ay, ay)
All I wanna be (ay)
Grand, grand, uh

All I wanna be is a righteous
But see my family deh they might buss
So watch you speech when you sight us
Nuh because you see we a rise up
Sometimes I feel like I might just
Lef' my enemies inna my dust
Who dem a pree them a size up?
Nah, nah

We naa beg nobody nothing, yes, a we set the trend
Naa follow back a nobody fi make a cent
Two furlong and man a open up the lengths (lengths)
Five album ahit and me ready again
And me no haffi pretend
A new wave coming better run and tell you friend
And me a go set it fi them, blam
Attitude reflect leadership
And gratitude is the fuel what you need for it
So reach for it

All I wanna be is a righteous
But see my family deh they might buss
So watch you speech when you sight us
Just because you see we a rise up
Sometimes I feel like I might just
Lef' my enemies inna my dust
Who dem a pree them a size up? (Ay, Lila)
You nuh see me and my people happy

Haffi drop a classic today
And me grow pon classic, so classic me say
Black woman and child (child)
Sizzla did have every black woman a smile (uh-huh)

Soon asbuju did talk it me spark it up (spark it up)
Them time me khaki up

Find money fi fork it up and cough it up, damn (damn)

All I wanna be is a righteous
But see my family deh they might buss

Nuh becauseyou see we a rise up
Sometimes I feel like a might just
Lef' my enemies inna my dust
Who dem a pree them a size up? (Dem a pree)
You nuh see me and my people happy

My mind tell me go then tell me don't do it
Even these righteous minds they go through it (through it)
Thoughts turns to words then actions so fluid
Wake up and notice all that I've ruined
And all that I'm doing is trying to be a better me
But these evils try fi take a set on me
And this world can make you so cold
Can't dig fi dirt and want fi find gold, oh, no

All I wanna be is a righteous
But see my family deh they might buss
So watch you speech when you sight us
Just because you see we a rise up
Sometimes I feel like a might just (yeah, man)
Lef' my enemiesinna my dust
Who dem a pree dem a size up? (Who?)
You nuh see me and my people happy

All I wanna to be is righteous
In a world that's so, so crazy (how you mean, how you mean)
Yeh, one must try, you know
Yeah, man
My family is love and always love
