alone by myself I pray tonight oh yeah
to see everyone feelin' irie yeah

I know we can all dance together in spite of
living in ignorance if we try
but you cannot count on everyone's thoughts when
it's hard just to keep your head on tight
the most I try to feel irie
but it's hard when you can't see everything I see

oh why do we act so foolishly

and though we try through this day and age I
still cant find the strength to turn the page
there's one solution we must teach each other
train our eyes to see only one color
the most I try to feel irie
but it's hard when you cant see everything I see

Can anybody in the party show me where the weed is at so I can smoke
heavy off into this reggae beat my feet start movin' everybody groovin'
who in here at Sigma Nu wanna get through burn up a fatty give
me a chance to romance that spliff livin' irie and positive
the way I gotta live Chico style hella wild goin' on like every night
neva tryna fight when I'm drunk I'd rather pick up the mic
and let my rhyme take flight
soarin' from the northern California I warned ya bout the truth
comin' from the Coot and my group the what...the Mystic Roots

so if you're irie then you're feelin' high
and if you're irie then you're feelin' love
cause every man is an equal man
so if you're irie then your positive
I know deep inside you know what's right
and your feelin' irie

I know deep inside you're irie now
and you know what's right
