Light Years - Jamiroquai

People tell me I'm no good

Cos I'm expressin' all my sentiments

Now I got to channel all my vehemence

For the benefit of my self defence

And you can be a do gooder

But true sincerity ain't charity

It can take a life time to be

How you wanna be.

You can be light years

Away from serious intention

And I thought I knew it all

Someday

I'd get to turn mankind

This way

If you don't know you can be light years

Away from your true destination. No conscious escalation

Until I get with good vibration

I'm never gonna get to use that

use that earthly power

Substitutes

Can never take the place of peace of mind

Losing all sense of direction.

When you're light years.

Too far away to turn you back on substitution

There is no u-turn on a one way route

Goin' up when I learn to love the life I can bite the fruit

Now I got sunshine in my life.

Light years

Never to return to Babylon

See money don't make a man

But if you really want you get there anyway you can.
