Life it is a balance, balance, balance
between the simple things and the diamonds and pearls
this is the challenge, challenge, challenge
spiritual man in a material world
[Little Pepe]
Unos tienen tanto tanto tanto,
que su propia avaricia con esa codicia los viene cegando,
muchos tan en llanto llanto llanto,
pues con pan en la mesa y teniendo riqueza jamás serán salvos,
cuando venga el juicio ¿que vas a llevarte?
por mucho que guardes eso no va a salvarte,
no importa si es oro, si es plata o diamante,
Dios vendrá a juzgarte en como te comportaste,
si viste al sediento y le diste de beber,
si viste al hambriento y le diste de comer,
no importa las veces que perdieras la fe,
Jah Jah a ti el camino mas fácil te va a hacer.

[Jah Sun]
some have the bread and don't have the teeth
some have teeth and don't have the bread
out a road is getting refer than red
iniquity flood the world, in a di water we fi tread
some have it all still they are living in misery
lost in the paper chase and face the intensity
to get more they practice pure wizardry
no matter how dem try can find tranquility
some have little or none and still know sey dem blessed
realizing more than all life is the greatest
take time to give thanks for every breath
joy and happiness they manifest, oh yes!
Material and spiritual gain we all require
and very nescesarry to elevate higher
when u start to get ruled by your desire
out of the frying pan, into the fire
