LYRICS
I was looking for a way to spread my wings
I was looking to lift my soul
I was looking for a way to escape material things
I was looking to lose control

And music, it was there for me
My brothers, they were there for me
And this is what they said

Well ya gotta move fast, make the moment last
Always keep it humble even when the feelin passes
When you hear the thunder rumble and your foot is on the gas
Take a second to be grateful, look up in the sky and ask
For a lesson yeah this life is such a blessing
If you're guessing, look around and know you are blessed too
We've come together to see light in any weather
We're forever
We have come to your rescue

I was looking for a way to conquer dreams
I was looking for one a day
I was looking for a way to sew up those open seams
I was looking to run away

And my family, they were there for me
My friends, they were all there for me 
And this is what they said

Well ya gotta move fast, make the moment last
Always keep it humble even when the feelin passes
When you hear the thunder rumble and your foot is on the gas
Take a second to be grateful, look up in the sky and ask
For a lesson yeah this life is such a blessing
If you're guessing, look around and know you are blessed too
We've come together to see light in any weather
We're forever
We have come to your rescue

I was looking for a way to release my pain
I was looking for some company
I was looking for someone to scream my name
I was looking for someone to be

And music, it was there for me
My brothers, they were there for me
And this is what they said

Well ya gotta move fast, make the moment last
Always keep it humble even when the feelin passes
When you hear the thunder rumble and your foot is on the gas
Take a second to be grateful, look up in the sky and ask
For a lesson yeah this life is such a blessing
If you're guessing, look around and know you are blessed too
We've come together to see light in any weather
We're forever
We have come to your rescue

LYRICS:
I've seen the sun slip behind the sea
The stars stretching out to eternity
But baby, they just can't compare
To what you mean- What you mean to me
So I'll wait- I'll wait for you
At the dancehall

Yes I’ll wait- You know I’ll wait for you
At the dancehall

Staring up at the palm leaves
Salt breeze blowin- never felt so free
Me and you- yeah we were the only two
Out on the beach, and out of reach

Remember when we heard our song
I swear I could have held you all night long
I thought loving you could never be wrong
But now you're gone
Now you're gone

And I'll wait- I'll wait for you
At the dancehall
Yes I’ll wait- You know I’ll wait for you
At the dancehall

I say now how can I stop when you keep on keepin me going
You just cut off the current when I need it to be flowing
With every part of me aching- my heart is taking me over
And my head- It keeps spinning like I could never be sober
Cause there's another side of you that I can never ignore
You say you're leaving me baby- I say I'm missing you more
And I would never hurt you, burn you, cut you down to the core
But you got one foot on my heart and got one foot out of the door
Still I'll wait- I'll wait for you
At the dancehall
Still I'll wait- you know I'll wait for you
At the dancehall

LYRICS:
She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

My first words were you're gorgeous
You caught my eye- I think you did it on purpose
I'd never give you lip service
I'd speak the truth even if you never heard this

Cause when I look at you I see the sun shining so bright
I wanna be with you the morning through and every night

She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

She sends me pictures in the bathtub smokin
I wanna jump right in- the thought is so provoking
She's on the beach surfin and tokin
I think she loves the trees more than she loves the ocean

She'd put aside all the other little boys for me
But when it comes to the ganja I just can't compete

She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

She likes to smoke, she loves to burn
Ya know she has to get it everywhere she turns
She likes the weed, she loves the herb
And ya know I need her more with every word

LYRICS:
We're all in this together
It's alright
 
Turn on your television 
Get sucked into a world of corporate greed and get f***
When idle hands empty
Ego run amok 
So get up pass the buck
We ain't got a ton of luck
We ain't got a lot of time either
Calling out my people gotta pick up the receiver
We ask the government and no they won't help neither
So we turn a naysayer to a positive believer
Rise above
 
They try to break you down
Don't let them get ya 
Rise against the system
See the bigger picture
Sound the siren
Know that I am with ya
We're all in this together
It's alright
 
Turn on your record player and run 
Into a world of beautiful collaboration 
Meditate on the melody, lyric, and the one drop
Don't stop until the revelations come
And now it's time to get clever
They try to yell quit but we reply never
They opened up the trap door
Pulled down the lever
But we made a quick escape and now we make it last forever
 
Switch up the melody, sound up the siren 
They say eventually we're burnin' ash in the fire 
They break us down but the music make us high
There's a lesson in the message, when revealed it gets quiet.
Yeah there's something in the air tonight,
Catch a vibe when the feelings right
Kill the silence, ring the alarm
Sound the siren

To see the waves hit the sand on the shore. So I can dive in
Road so hot, I can see the heat rising, man I'm sweatin

Atlantic water come and cool me down
Pull me under, spin me around now

Ya come and cool me down in the morning
Ya come and cool me down every night

The sun is setting on a west coast evenin and I'm drivin
I see the path up ahead. I've been workin, I've been striving
Life so rough, I've been stressin everyday. You know I'm sweatin
I gotta get in
Don't ya know I gotta get in the lovin ocean

Pacific water come and cool me down
Pull me under, spin me around now
Pacific water come and cool me down
It's alright now, all is right now
Ya come and cool me down in the morning
Ya come and cool me down every night

Pull me under, spin me around now

Ya come and cool me down in the morning
Ya come and cool me down every night

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

Wash away my worries
Let my soul be...

What now, it’s coming around
You’re feeling cut down into the ground
So we all come together, we’re making a sound
We sing “Look at all this love we’ve found”

Gotta raise em up, toast to the sweet life
If it’s wrong, I don’t wanna be right
See the sun giving me the green light
To kick back, relax and soak up the sweet sights

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

There’s something in the air
Come and take away my cares
I close my eyes
Remember these dreams that we share
I wash it all away
You gotta give us all a break
Let the troubles of tomorrow 
Wait till another day

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

When life’s moving to fast
We can make this dream last
Just let the past be the past
Just leave it all behind

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

Take me to the ocean 
Take me to the sea
Wash away my worries
Let my soul be free

LYRICS:
Some people they live their whole lives in a compound
They couldn't find any other way out now
And then they came out of it like it was so easy
They turned from a flower into a strong tree yeah
 
So I ask you not to shed a tear
If you get scared you know I'll be here
I will always love you, I keep you in my heart
I will always be there to lead you through the dark yeah

We will always walk together hand in hand
Lead you through the forest and the desert in the sand
We're among the greatest things that grow upon this land
I'll be here to teach you and to help you understand, so

When the sun is getting low
Look at how the Redwoods grow
You forgot but now you know
Just look at how the Redwoods grow yeah

You know we all got to fall sometimes
Pick ourselves up off the ground and learn how to rise
It’s like I’ve been down so long that I just might
Stay here for awhile while I clear my mind

So you can cut my leaves
But you can’t kill my roots
And you can twist my words
But you can’t stop the truth

Because it’s imminent
Tell me are you listening
Universe is speaking to you
We are just the instruments

When the sun is getting low
Look at how the Redwoods grow
You forgot but now you know
Just look at how the Redwoods grow yeah

Look at the reason 
Everyone's sleepin, ain't got nothin to believe in
Dreams are T.V.
They can't see the changing of the seasons
Life is a breeze
And somebody else is just fighting to ****ing be breathing
Rule of treason
Seems we're always dealing with some heathen

But we will rise
We will make it to the top
If we're clever
They can never make it stop
Plant the seed, we are free
Break the lock
And walk the walk
Never just talk the talk, everybody…

When the sun is getting low
Look at how the Redwoods grow
You forgot but now you know
Just look at how the Redwoods grow yeah

LYRICS:
Orange sky over desert and the land so dry
The dirt thirsts for a teardrop
It's like the heavens abandoned the sands of time
The Gods fled for the treetops
Long ago in its stead was a forest of green
Beyond all imagination
And then an ocean so blue, so deep it would seem
To swallow all of creation

And if I had the power to rewind these years
And travel back through the ages
I'd watch the story unfold through a river of tears
As I longed to rewrite these pages

You 
When are you gonna wake up
You can't live life for the weekend
You can't live life for the weekend
When are you gonna wake up
You can't live life for the weekend
You can't live life for the weekend

Orange sky and the temperature at 113
Them go hide from their lifeline
I know the tectonic plates shift under me
But they won't split apart in my lifetime
Sacred are the bones of the primitive man
Only had the great spirit to lean on
Palms pressed together as they sit in the sand
Praying for eons and eons

And if I had the power to rewind these years
And travel back through the ages
I'd watch the story unfold through a river of tears
As I longed to rewrite these pages

You get out of bed and wonder how much money can you rake up
Then I'm afraid you're still sleeping
When are you gonna wake up
You can't live life for the weekend

You 
When are you gonna wake up
You can't live life for the weekend
You can't live life for the weekend
When are you gonna wake up
You can't live life for the weekend
You can't live life for the weekend

You can't live life for the weekend
You can't live life for the weekend

[LYRICS BELOW] The Movement new album WAYS OF THE WORLD out now! Produced by Johnny Cosmic.

Released: June 7, 2019
 #MvmtVibe #WaysOfTheWorld

LYRICS:
All we want is to chase our own destiny
But sometimes we all let the winds of change move us so freely
How can I let another no one sow the seed
And expect Gaia to just leave me alone and allow me to be me

All I want is a fire down by the sea
Beneath the palms with my feet in the sand you can find me dreaming
Open my eyes to another in misery
Hate to see a good man fall prey to the mother****ing snakes of society

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass

On the path of life
The task simply is
Don't let the trash tempt me
Strictly keep it classic
And you'll surpass quickly
Powers that be
Will keep us second guessing
And asking the question
Is the glass half full or half empty
Some stars burn out
From fast entry
While others last a century
It's the mind state
Of this entire country
They want us to embrace the superficial
Make the masses feel special
While this empire 
They run it corruptly
Some do it for the income
But we do it for the outcome
Some of us are active
While others just let their mouths run
No doubt son
This is not just about fun
We will not be outdone 
By these cowards
Who shout scum
Upgrade your faith
Just to match your vision
And your decisions will have risen
From their natural prison
And if you listen you can hear every 
Snake in the grass
And you can see them
Through the break in the glass
Wake 'em at last
Come on

“Life exists only at this very moment, and in this moment it is infinite and eternal. For the present moment is infinitely small; before we can measure it, it has gone, and yet it exists forever… You may believe yourself out of harmony with life and its eternal Now; but you cannot be, for you are life and exist Now.”

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass

The Movement's "Mountain" feat. Clinton Fearon is an upbeat and reflective reggae tune of hope and perseverance. "We only need to climb this mountain and we will be free." Out September 4, 2020. https://ffm.to/movementmountain

Produced by Johnny Cosmic & Matt Goodwin.

LYRICS:
I looked but I just couldn’t see
The sun shining down on me
I see but I don’t understand
My shadow when I raise my hand
Yeah we’re all stumbling our way down this open road
Just trying to make it to the next stop
And we’re tired but we keep our eyes open so
We can end up in the best spot

We only need to climb this mountain
And we will be free
 
Still we got a long way till we make it home
I know we’re all a little lonely but we’re not alone
 
I heard the sound of dancing feet
When I was lying in the street
I listened to them take command
I prayed that they would take my hand
Yeah we’re all running away from something we fear
Unless we’re trying to meet it head on
And that voice saying “give up” is just something we hear 
When we know we gotta get on
 
Travel on
It’s a long winding road
Hey
Travel on
No time to get bored
Hey
Travel on
Happiness will come just keep on moving
Travel on
And we will see
What will be
Must be
Just wait and see
You and me
What will be
Must be
Just wait and see
Love ones dancing with glee
