Sometimes you live like a monk (Reggae)

Sometimes you live like a monk You lived a challenging life Made some unique choices Deciding to be my wife Moving into my culture and it's voices The fall of your country You were just a preteen Took in a lot can't you see Trying not to be seen Escaped with your family in a boat All in with a shared mission Feelings are protected by a moat You never accepted submission Life in a refugee camp Learned a different survival Never good to be bright like a lamp But you made it through to your arrival Building a life in another culture Finding a new path So many people acting like a vulture Everything compounds just do the math So I was wondering You live a full life Not just recovering Cutting through it like a knife Sometimes you live like a monk other times you act like a ponk Let's hear your point of view I got some questions, my dear You lived a life experienced only by a few You spirit is strong, absolutely no fear How do you know your loved? Can happiness and sadness coexist? Why do we form families? What does a good day look like? What do you think about when you are alone? Sometimes you live like a monk other times you act like a ponk Why do I love you so much? Why did you choose to marry me? Happy 40th anniversary my dear Sometimes you live like a monk other times you act like a ponk I love both of you Wa Kim Chung Alldus
