Well my mumma is an angel set down on my path.
She kept me out of some trouble far from the pain,
the hate, the wrath.
She said, Love your sisters and your brothers love them to,
and child, Please love Jah, cause he gave all of this to you”.
Now theres my neighbor on the corner, he’s crying for his life.
A brief glimpse into the former, the car, the kids, the wife.
While im a man on a mountain, Im 23 stories sky high.
I got an ocean for a window, I watch eagles fly by.
CHORUS
And I take it well, ooooh ho!
I take it well, ooooh ho!
I take it well,
Straight down
Straight down to my heart.
So I got to kick it harder that old black night.
He said he heard it on the radio that it could bleed daylight.
So I got to get my mind strong and my body that too,
And girl I got to get my love strong so when I give it to you…
You’ll take it well, ooooh ho!
You’ll take it well, ooooh ho!
You’ll take it well,
Straight down
Straight down to my heart.
So I’ll play to your strengths
And then I’ll work on your weaknesses
I’ll play to your strengths
And then ill work on your weaknesses.
I’ll play to your strengths
And then ill work on your weaknesses.
While I try to align my mind with a little bit of positivity.
While I try to align my mind with a little bit of positivity.
While I try to align my mind with a little bit of positivity.
Cause we sing truth or fable, whatever keeps your mind stable
And your lovin body able girl,
Yeah we sing truth or fable, whatever keeps your mind stable
And your lovin body able girl,
Cause we sing
Truth or fable, whatever keeps your mind stable.
