Note To Self (Okay) [feat. Chronixx] - Jah9

Girl, you've been forgetting Just how special you really are And I try to remind you But sometimes I can't find you But the truth is in your heart So write a note to yourself Girl, don't beat yourself up Your best is good enough So pick the pen up And write a note to yourself A note to yourself And don't be cruel 'Cause things do happen And you know it's not your fault Don't cover your wounds With this song Girl, let me tell you what I see You've got to believe me You're a thing of beauty Girl, put it in an envelope Put it in the post It'll come back to your door And read A note to yourself A note to yourself Don't be cruel 'Cause things do happen And you know it's not your fault Don't cover your wounds With this song And write A note to self And read A note to yourself A note to yourself

You know the make-up can come after the break-up When you realize that sometimes it's just bad timing You know the glow up, it happens when you show up And learning how to see the silver linings Note to self If you love something, but it ain't working, then set it free And if it's meant for you, it'll come right back, you've gotta let it be All that late-night overthinking in the dark Never seemed to ever get you very far You just gotta let it be You just gotta let it be You know the blue days can show you new ways To see the sunshine's there behind the rain So if you just let the rays in and you quit the chasing Let everything work out in the end Note to self If you love something, but it ain't working, then set it free And if it's meant for you, it'll come right back, you've gotta let it be All that late-night overthinking in the dark Never seemed to ever get you very far You just gotta let it be You just gotta let it be 'Cause there's always a bigger plan And you might never understand So take a chance and see where it lands Note to self If you love something, but it ain't working, then set it free And if it's meant for you, it'll come right back But you've gotta let it be All that late-night overthinking in the dark Never seemed to ever get you very far, no You just gotta let it be You just gotta let it be You just gotta let it be

Still feeling confusion, but I have decided You're not good enough You have expired I can see the tired in your eyes So back up because you've failed to be What you said to be I don't need you (need to be) Wasting all my time I will be pacified no longer The spark is gone from your eyes(was it ever there?) I will be unified and stronger that you ever were Private bell ringing to justify You can hardly paint your picture as strong You may not be a fool, just a phase We disagree on too many things Look me in the eye You think you're in the right? There's no slap on the wrist this time You've faked it so long, but this time I see your true colors Halftones of gray and whites Nothing too sublime Alive and vibrant

Legitimate or not Some claim indemnity from the original plot As though their integrity cold still be intact What is likelihood of that When if you trace the source of each resource they've got They're tapped into the veins of the masses the system maintains Feeding on their youthfulness and draining from their brains Then when the weak ones are rejected armed and turned toward the strife They return with force and take away their life But make no mistake There is life in abundance for all to partake So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love But too many put feelings in the place of love We all are the same The essence of life in this physical plane And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love Yes I remember the censorship of showing your roots Deception with no lye conditioning for the youths Straightening their follicles while twisting their minds Replacing old tradition with their programs for decline But as I rebel my natty swells defiant of the taming My natural advantage I'm proclaiming These spirals map the course of life and represent the force of life Connected to the source of life So make no mistake There is life in abundance for all to partake So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love But too many put feelings in the place of love We all are the same The essence of life in this physical plane And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love So I have no fear And though I have no enemy I am aware That the few seek the plenty for themselves And justice is rare without material wealth When we delegate our fate to someone else But fortunately, I claim dominion over my destiny With the wisdom and power from knowledge of the key The tree of life is rooted in me So even in the midst of trials I am free So make no mistake There is life in abundance for all to partake So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love But too many put feelings in the place of love We all are the same The essence of life in this physical plane And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love So make no mistake There is life in abundance for all to partake So war is redundant and hate is futile in the face of love But too many put feelings in the place of love We all are the same The essence of life in this physical plane And nothing can restrain the love, you just have to claim the love

A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out Finding a way a way a way over I am a social scientist gathering information Observing different cultures in each of the various nation Trodding incognito As a Rastafari artist Instigating revolution with anyone willing to start it Marketing the mission As a spiritual experience And using the opportunity to do some Major reconnaissance To find out how my people living On the black continents So we can determine a plan for resistance And mount an effective defense As a way A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out Finding a way a way a way over We calling the healer and the engineers Teachers and creatorsImpressing on them the urgency Even helping to process their paper Sake a common ancestral influence We sure to find a few Who not just ready to take instruction But already know what to do Those who've been reading and preparing Burning passionately from time Awaiting engagement Of dem spirit and dem mind And now that time is upon us Sisters brothers ready your station For the victory is eminent Once we commence these activations Will find it There is a will in I that will not be silenced Born of the first race now of the new race We who have emerged out of their history of violence against us Now we're fully cognizant of how Jah bless us And we're finding a way A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out A way a way a way over A way a way out Finding a way a way a way over The way over's the way out's the way in Seek knowledge and look within All of the things that we've been mistaught But still we learning I'm so bored to see you distraught It's really hurting The world is colder than I ever thought But Still we burning A solder can't mistake war for sport And that for certain The person, the individual or the collective All of these things and mean so much more What's your perspective Neglected histories remain hidden And that's on purpose But all we've got to do is some digging And they resurface We're often so focused On how things have become We forget how many victories That we have won A debt that's ancestoral I bet a man bet you That the best you can get You are still lesser than special But the way outs the way within We cannot face everything But before we can even begin We must look within For a way over A way out way over A way out way over A way out way over A way out Oooooo

You are not a king, you are just a pawn Scattering the seeds from which the masses will be born The emphasis you place on the space you put your tail Shows just the kind of weakness that would cause a race to fail Where did you get it in your head that the value you possess Was determined by efficiency of taking off my dress? Huh, who taught you what it means to be a man? Don't blame the absence of a father, blame the absence of a plan Blame the system that would have you drugged and sexing off for sport Blame the rich when you steal Then, when they catch you, blame the court Blame the girls that told you, "Yes" Blame the girl that told you, "No" Blame the girl that was your mother Blame it on the way you grow So many things you have the opportunity to use as your excuse When you lose But what if all you had to do to win Was to learn from the example of the King But he don't love highly Always on the low Heart overfull but he don't want it to show He don't love highly Ever feeling down Draining the energy when ever he's around He don't love highly So the chance is kind of slim Not taking no time to give isles unto him Who is the light and the law The truth and the way So, I can't let him get to me G.Q pimp type Hustling, fly Helping himself to the bulk of the pie Never complained when the sign did a-show Now everything is crumbling Wouldn't you know Fast pace, brain freeze, sikkling heart Fearing a future Before the start of the moves that will lead him astray Unless Haile is leading the way But, he don't love highly (don't love highly) Always on the low Heart overfull but he don't want it to show He don't love highly Ever feeling down Draining the energy when ever he around He don't love highly So the chance is kind of slim Not taking no time to give isles unto him Who is the light and the law The truth and the way So I can't let him get to me For he don't love highly He don't love highly He don't love highly He don't love highly So, he's falling I can't let him get to me No, I can't let him get to me I can't let him get to me I can't let him get to me
