Pastime Paradise - Najee

Been spending most their lives

Living in a pastime paradise

Been spending most their lives

Living in a pastime paradise

Been wasting most their time

Glorifying days long gone behind

Been wasting most their days

In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise

Tell me who of them will come to be?

How many of them are you and me?

Dissipation, race relations

Consolation, segregation

Dispensation, isolation

Exploitation, mutilation

Mutations, miscreation

Confirmation to the evils of the world

Been spending most their lives

Living in a future paradise

Been spending most their lives

Living in a future paradise

They’ve been looking in their minds

For the day that sorrow’s lost from time

They keep telling of the day

When the Savior of love will come to stay

Tell me who of them will come to be?

How many of them are you and me?

Proclamation of race relations

Consolation, integration

Verification of revelations

Acclamation, world salvation

Vibrations, simulation

Confirmation to peace of the world

Been spending most their lives

Living in a pastime paradise

Been spending most their lives

Living in a pastime paradise

They’ve been spending most their lives

Living in a future paradise

They’ve been spending most their lives

Living in a future paradise

We’ve been spending too much of our lives

Living in a pastime paradise

Let’s start living our lives

Living for the future paradise

Praise to our lives

Living for future paradise

Shame to anyones life

Living in a pastime paradise
