Different World Lyrics

[Intro: Jermaine Jackson]
The world around I see in only shades of gray (Get up)
But when the love light shines upon my face

[Chorus: Jermaine Jackson & Posdnuos]
I'm in a different world (A world worth giving)
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, ayy, hey

[Verse 1: Posdnuos]
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
Tested life, and the grays is up
The view is bright when no 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 Freddie
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 but changing, having insight to aim
I'm in a different world

[Chorus: Jermaine Jackson & Posdnuos]
I'm in a different world (A world worth giving)
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, ayy, hey

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

[Verse 2: Posdnuos]
Hard for me to cry 'cause I'm thankful
You right beside us with the tank full
Steering us through right and left turns
What we earned is another angel on our side
Or is it too hard for me to cry?
'Cause we hold too much in the lie
To ourselves for saying we are strong
And wrong in being selfish in 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
But I'd rather you here what 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

[Chorus: Jermaine Jackson & Posdnuos]
I'm in a different world (A world worth giving)
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, ayy, hey

[Outro: Jermaine Jackson]
I'm—
I'm—
