	Story Behind the Song I notice that as my musical quest goes on, the more I find myself dipping into my Jamaican roots. Even though this song was essentially written on computer (in entirety), I recall many reggae devices within it, albeit portrayed in a more European flavor... such is the nature of World Fusion). This song is about me in 2002... the roughest year of my life (thus far). Read the lyrics, listen to the tune, and tell me what you think. Lyrics Life Don't Play By- Andrew G. Bolton 11-04-02 copyright 2002 WMW (Chorus:) Life don't play Life don't play Don't waste it till you dead and gone Life don't Play Life don't PLAY... Every day I try to live my life The way that I was meant to live And though I struggle I don't fuss or fight Jus' wait for better days to give I still remember what my Grandma say Be 'appy for the rainy day While it's true you can't go out an' play Imagination takes you away! (Chorus) I'm at the lowest point a man can go I've loved and lost my only bride I gotta learn to build respect and trust And one day she'll be at my side Every mickle make a muckle they say, "Every little bit adds up." And when they throw you 'pon your ass one day You best jus' fi STAND BACK UP! (Chorus) (Bridge:) Yes it's true I'm jus' a simple man Trying just to make my way (In the world!) I still believe there is a master plan, And I'm waiting for my day (To be heard!) (lead guitar) (repeat Bridge) (Chorus) It's for the children why I still press on Or one day they'll be in my shoes I don't regret the stupid things I done But I'll be careful what I choose I see dem sittin' by de street all day Watchin' as their lives go by Yes I know that I'll be old some day But i won't sit an' wonder why! I won't sit an' wonder why! All the things I should have done!!! (Chorus till end approx. 3 and a half times)
