Carl Young - What I Be lyrics

If I could be the sun I'd radiate like Africa and Smile upon the world Intergalactic love laughter and If I were the rains, I'd wash away the whole world's pain and Bring the gift of cool like ice cream trucks on sunny days and If I was the earth I'd be like mountains bountiful And if I were the sky so high, I'd be like wind invincible and If I could be a seed, I would give birth to redwood trees and If I were the trees, I'd generate the freshest air to breathe in [Chorus] What I be, is what I be What I be, is what I be Well, well, well, moving on! Well, well, well, moving on! Do you love someone? Do you love somebody? Love that one! If I could be the leaves, then like jade I would stay evergreen and Spread my limbs out wide and pull love so close to me and If I could be the roots, I would dig deep like ancestry and If I were the fruits, you'd make the sweetest cherry pie from me and If I could be the night, my moon replace all electric lights and Magic music would transmit from outer space on satellites If I myself could be the ocean, you would feel the motion all the time and If I were the words, then everything that everybody said would rhyme [Chorus] What I be, is what I be What I be, is what I be Well, well, well, moving on! Well, well, well, moving on! Do you love someone? Do you love somebody? Love that one! If I could be s** my words would protect I'd be in the lives of all who connect What the heck, I'd make it so we all got selected Pores would be dripping pure hot intellect and The minds of the ma**es would all stay erect and Then just for kicks, I'd mail out some checks Addressed to those who sent their used latex in Yes, that's what I would do if I were s** If I could be you, you could be me I could be you, you could be me I could walk a mile in your shoes... And you could walk a mile in my bare feet [Chorus] What I be, is what I be What I be, is what I be Well, well, well, moving on! Well, well, well, moving on! Do you love someone? Do you love somebody? Love that one!
