Lyrics

One, two
I just came over here to London
To cool out with my man Jazzie B and the Soul II Soul posse
I go by the name of Fab 5 Freddy, I got something I want to sing
Check it out
Lay your cards on the table, place your bets
I'll lay your odds, this is something that you haven't heard yet
It's fine, divine, like a vintage wine
Best of all, yes y'all
It's genuine wine
It's the sound of Soul II Soul
Our time is come
To be together and live as one
Forever living free, happily
Our time is come, yeah
Take my time to create this rhyme
Words of inspiration drew me
Time after time I was flowing
Going on and on
Inducing motivation though it made me strong
So, I'm clearing my mind with intentions and thoughts
Like the ones that board us here
Here to this place
So now you gotta gain your own time and space
By moving in the right direction
Aided by a selection of actions, enriching positivity
It's no time for negativity
It's prospering, developing and we're enveloping
And I'm here, showing you how something flowin'
Going on and on
Our time is now, come on, our time is now, come on
Our time is come
To be together and live as one
Forever living free, happily
Our time is come, yeah
Our time is come
To be together and live as one
Forever living free, happily
Our time is come, yeah
Well, clear and conscious and strong in mind, I said
Meek and heartless, how I find the thoughts
The generator feeling, give life
A whole new meaning
A fresh outlook, you're a new perspective
Making you become an objective abound
Which way you wanna travel
Make your dreams, make your dreams
Unravel your peace of mind
Self-satisfaction, objective, effective
True to your actions, to achieve
Not be denied
By the things in your life that you strive for
Yeah, you can get more, much more
More what you've been looking for
Patience is a virtue
A wait won't hurt you
In the long run it will serve you
Our time is come
To be together and live as one
Forever living free, happily
Our time is come, yeah
Our time is come
To be together and live as one
Forever living free, happily
Our time is come, yeah
Well, the future for Soul II Soul
Still is and always will be
A happy face, a thumping bass
For loving race
Until such time
See ya!
Word up, huh!
Word up
We're getting ready to step off outta here
Got a concord waiting, you know
Got to get back over there and do the right thing
You know, Jazzy, I gotta step off man
You know what I'm saying?
I'm outta here!
Peace!
