Different World Songtext
von De La Soul feat. Gina Loring

The world around I see in only shades of gray
But when the love light shines upon my face

I′m in a different world (A world worth living)
A world I never knew
I'm in a different world (A world worth living)
A world so sweet and true
I′m in a different world (Worth giving)
I'm in a different (Worth living)
I'm in a different world, hey, hey

There was a time when my mind was so

Caught up in a bind ′cause the grind was so
In my face, but now I′m in a place
Where the taste for the grit is no longer what I'm craving

Testing life and the grades is up
The view is bright when them shades is up
And I don′t mean what sits upon Dwayne Wayne ears
But the dark thoughts my mind bathed in


Now put behind me, come what may
Free spirit residing where the gut lay
A hippie at heart like Freddy
So I keep a smile steady and negativity out of my focus
No longer at odds with staying hard in life
Greener the side where your God's in life
Blessed to be intact with change and having insight to aim
I′m in a different world

I'm in a different world (A world worth living)
A world I never knew
I′m in a different world (A world worth living)
A world so sweet and true
I'm in a different world (Worth giving)
I'm in a different (Worth living)
I′m in a different world, hey, hey

Gravity would have us walk heavy
But we who read the wind know the freedom of levity
We live in the now moment when the beat drops
We march to the beatbox of our own frequency
Field of light ascension
Where friends become ancestors, ancestors become friends
We in a different world where the connection transcends

Hard for me to cry ′cause I'm thankful
You right beside us with a tank full


Steering us through right and left turns
What we earn is another angel on our side
Or is it too hard for me to cry?
′Cause we hold too much in and lie
To ourselves, we're saying we all strong
And wrong in being selfish and wishing you had never died
It′s like we lost a limb to gain a win
But Mase and I would rather be whole
I know you are providing us with warmth
I'd rather you here with us fighting through the cold

Us arguing and mad at each other
Would be better than us to not have each other

But all I can do is bite my lip
And be blessed to have you steering the ship
From a different world

I′m in a different world (A world worth living)
A world I never knew
I'm in a different world (A world worth living)
A world so sweet and true
I'm in a different world (Worth giving)
I′m in a different (Worth living)
I′m in a different world, hey, hey
