about

Every human being deserves to be happy. We are now living in a world that feels so uncertain, so sometimes we feel out of control. But we can make choices to be happy. Happiness comes to one when one helps another. With the little we have to share we can make a difference in the world and this is really important for humanity. Even if you just make one person happy, you are making a difference. So be blessed and give thanks every day for it is from above, for The Most High is always by your side. Life is beyond mankind. Everything will be alright. Jah bless brothers and sistren, be happy, be irie.

BE HAPPY LYRICS

I want to see you being happy
Everything will just be alright
Rasta wanna see ya feel irie
Jah mighty is I warrior

Got to live and praise him (hail him I say)
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
Conquering Lion tribe of Judah
Drink up the roots and spit out the truth youth man

Light must shine out of darkness (n’ I say yeah)
And everything will just be alright
I want to see you being happy
Jah mighty is I warrior

I will sing a song to the new world of tomorrow
Dreaming of peace and peaciful days to come
Den when dem shall dem all men understand
Jah sat up upon a throne and he rules us all, I and I yeah

Everything will just be alright
Rasta wanna see ya feel irie yeah
Jah mighty is I warrior

I want to see you being happy hey brother
Everything will just be alright
Rasta wanna see ya feel irie yeah
Jah mighty is I warrior
