The Fire

[Verse 1: Cris Cab]

Just take a second let your problems go

Wipe the sweat up off your back, let’s take it slow

Everyday you wearing out your soul

Raise it higher, higher

And you can start taking control

When Monday comes it’s always 9 to 5

You got the man up in your face

And trouble on your mind

Well if you’re working just to live

Then you’re not alive

You need to make a little time to feel it

Oh you’re not satisfied with the small things

So open up your eyes, you’ve got to start right now


[Chorus: Cris Cab]

Just put the fire in the air and take the weight up off your shoulders

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time

Just hold the fire in the air when it gets a little colder

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time


[Bridge: Cris Cab]

Yeah, working all the time


[Verse 2: Cris Cab]

Now that it’s easy, you can understand

It’s not the money in the pocket that defines the man

To see it clearly is the righteous plan

Take it higher (higher)

And you can start taking control

You got that feeling deep within your bones

The good vibration resonating with your girl at home

She say she loves it, every time you make her scream and moan

You got to take it up to the ceiling

Don’t be preoccupied with the wrong things

I’ll help you realize, you’ve got to start right now


[Chorus: Cris Cab]

Just put the fire in the air and take the weight up off your shoulders

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time

Just hold the fire in the air when it gets a little colder

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time

[Verse 3: The Green (Ikaika Antone and Caleb Keolanui)]

Hey mister officer, tell me where you’re coming from

Is it illegal to be this hot under the sun

Cause we’ve been working overtime with no pay

And it’s 96 degrees in the shade

You need to take it all before it goes away

So God can guarantee us all another day

So give thanks for life every day and every night cause

Every little thing is gonna be alright


[Chorus: Cris Cab]

Just put the fire in the air and take the weight up off your shoulders

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time

Just hold the fire in the air when it gets a little colder

They got you working all the time, working all the time, time
