Let Me Be

Selassie I say don't trust dem, even if me buss dem
 They be eva come around, who need enemy wid dem kinda friends?
 They talked me down, called me names,
 My mind made up it ain't gonna change
 Sure in my heart happy and free, why don't they just let me be?
 Jealousy and lies won't defeat you,
 Look how dem aggravated and beat up
 Change yourself cause a good dem no mean
 You, it getting worse and dem mek it so hard
 Some say dem a friend but when me check it dem a counterfeit
 Dem a demi dem no ready, none a dem no real
 Dem only fronting, dem wi slew you in your sleep
 Rather worse, dem go mek it so hard
 Alright well
 Some people hate you and dem no rate you
 Aggravated by your success fi left down
 (Hey) I get de picture dem run in,
 Dem see de glitter, now dem fail me no know weh dem get
 I show dem say;
 Happiness is not a crime, so me nah mek no bitterness kill I
 I risk no time,
 Neva feel guilty to show my smile, when me walk wid me enemy live
 They talked me down, called me names,
 My mind made up it ain't gonna change
 Sure in my heart happy and free, why don't they just let me be
 Talked me down, called me names, my mind made up it ain't gonna change
 Sure in my heart,
 I'm so happy and free, so why don't they just let me be

 Sit around with envy and greed, opportunity fly pass in full speed
 Catch as it as it grows fresh tender
 Trees, don't you grumble while another succeed
 Time fi you get rid a de weathery monster within
 While another man's possession looking so attractive to your eyes
 You know time flies
 So if dem de hypocrite I naw let near me tonight
 They talked me down, called me names,
 My mind made up it ain't gonna change
 Sure in my heart happy and free, why don't they just let me be
 Talked me down, called me names, my mind made up it ain't gonna change
 Sure in my heart,
 I'm so happy and free, so why don't they just let me be

 Look how dem aggravated and beat up
 Change youself cause a good dem no mean
 You, it get worse and dem mek it so hard

 Dem a demi dem no ready, none a dem no real
 Dem only fronting, dem wi slew you in your sleep
