Gentleman - Life Takes More Than That

A wha do yuh man!
Bun grudge and jealousy, ya man,
Don't try fi rob me off my dignity!
Won't let you destroy my divinity.
Shame and pride things of humanity, ya man,
But the soul is infinity.

In dis ya human experience,
I see you putting up a fence.
But a nuh so the journey is meant,
Mankind that's an offense.
Enlightened souls seeking a better way,
We smokin' marihuana.
We think of thoughts just like the Buddha say,
We head to Nirvana.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone;
Not teeth not tongue;
Life takes more than that.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone;
Not teeth not tongue;
Life takes more than that.

All dem words it is just hypocrisy,
Personality that is just psychology.
Shame and pride things of reality,
But the soul is infinity, yeah.
What is good for you is terrible for me,
Don't want to live the mental slavery.
I am a piece in reality,
I come to liberate and set the captives free.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone;
Not teeth not tongue;
Life takes more than that.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone;
Not teeth not tongue;
Life takes more than that.

Trying to get ahead at my expense,
Hoping that I will get bitter.
You keep on doing it with all your relent,
I ask of you what is the matter?
You throw the line and see every day, Lord,
Frying the snapper.
You better hurry up get conscience today,
Before you head get lick by the shotter.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone;
Not teeth not tongue;
Life takes more than that.

Not wood not stone;
Not flesh not bone.
