You know it isn't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me There are no words to describe it In french or english Cause diamonds they fade And flowers they bloom And I'm telling you That these feelings won't go away They've been knockin me sideways They've been knockin me out litely Whenever you come around me These feelings won't go away They've been knockin me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away But these feelings won't go away |

Things have been getting real heavy these days
The media the system the people chasing pay Somebody's got a rifle he won't turn the other cheek Now its his turn Things have been getting real hectic these days An eye for an eye A spade is a spade They're shooting him down and he's running away That was their turn I believe in The same thing that makes the night become day Tide and the water Sons and the daughters Can't hide it can't fight it Love I'm a say it again It's the same thing that makes the moonlight Meet up with the sunlight Can't fight it can't buy it Love... I'm a say it again When cut deep the same blood we bleed We're not immune to addiction or disease Got violent deaths in our family trees Now it's our turn Things have been seeming real ready these days From the North to the South to the East to the West Happiness will you put it to your chest When it's your turn |

The woman that I love Is forty feet tall She's a movie star She's all in the papers And everywhere i go People hand me quarters And they pat me on the back They treat me like im famous I'll never leave her side 'Cause today can be dangerous And when the night arrives The light hit her features And the cars drive by Just so they could see her And she never bats an eye When someone takes her picture Mr.Officer if you've come to take her Then that means one of us Gonna end up in a stretcher Gonna end up in the papers, going end up in the papers, yeah If i had a pistol I'd brandish it and wave it She's the only one alive that knows that I'm not crazy She's gonna testify on my behalf Down at the Navy So I can get some peace And provide for my babies I got a stick and a bottle I'll pretend I got a razor Helicopters and cameras all shottin' for the station They say that a wild man defending his lady But for some odd reason they keep calling you a painting |

I will carry you through the hurricane waters
And I'll remember you in the blue skies I will carry you through the hurricane waters And I'll remember you in the blue skies Something happens when You're caught searching for an answer When you're stuck in the middle Of a place that you don't belong When you start to lose sight of what's right and wrong When we started it was innocent 'Cause when we started it was innocent I will carry you through the hurricane waters And I'll remember you in the blue skies I will carry you through the hurricane waters And I'll remember you in the blue skies Until we meet again Until it's like it was Until then Until the answers start raining down Until the skies open up until the trumpet starts Until then Until the city and the county ain't divided Until then Until the spirit and the mind ain't fighting Until the scenes of tomarrow and today finally play I will carry you through the hurricane waters And I'll remember you in the blue skies I will carry you through the hurricane waters And I'll remember you in the blue skies |

I've been sinning I've been livin' I've been beaten By Saturdays On a diamond I lay on a diamond On a diamond I lay awake D'Artagnan Good ol' D'Artagnan He ain't got a thing on me I've been minding To my field of timing Too bad your time in It just never came Well I don't know how else to say it In a diffrent way But why don't you just fade away 'Cause there's a battle going on Down south of Babylon So why don;t you just fade away I've been dealing I've been healing I've been dealing A crooked game Thieving pirates |

Mr. Dali Lamas Another sister's shootin' heroin tomorrow Amputees in Freetown Sierra Leone's The church wasn't honest The state put the youth in a harness Creatin' hostility among us Teacher said no college Still the kid's gotta get a check with a couple commas People wanna bomb us More people gotta scatter and run from us You can blame it on Zeus and Apollo and Adonis But what you've done here Is put yourself between a bullet and a target And it won't be long before You're pulling yourself away But what you've done here Is put yourself between a bullet and a target And it won't be long before You're pulling yourself away I've been knowing her for years I've been seeing her for years She got dark, dark wavy hair With a voice like she just don't care She got a skirt with a halter top She's got a dad who never gave a fuck She drinks a beer with her mom 'til dawn She got knocked up in a pickup truck But she got engaged when she was nineteen To this dude who was acting insane Had a .45 that he always cleaned Said one day one day one too many days Now she ducked and she ran away Never to be heard from, never to be seen I check the cover of a magazine I'm just wondering how, just wondering how But what you've done here Is put yourself between a bullet and a target And it won't be long before You're pulling yourself away |
