If I were to say that now I have everything
And I want you to stay no matter what tomorrow brings
Would it make you feel something so real
Like even speaking your mind
Whisper your wildest dreams
Girl it's alright by me
Once there was a king who lived in a foreign land
Had riches and gold, the envy of every man
But he somehow missed out on what I have now
Cuz if I dream in this world
You're all that I'll ever need
Girl it's alright by me
This is the kind of thing
One might see in a movie
This is the kind of thing
That inspires one's greatest poetry
Out of a million chances who would have thought
I'd be this kind of lucky one
Girl it's alright
Girl it's alright by me
Girl, if I should die and have to go away
I know I'll be back to see you another day
Cuz this love that we have is one that will last
So let the mountains all cry
Let the sky falling down
We can't live in the past and the future won't last
But if I live for today it won't go away
So please
I went down to Mississippi and I tried to beg a ride I saw Jesus and the devil they was walkin side by side I said whoa Mr. Devil is that really what I see He said I was thinking folks might try to judge me by my company
Well my boss gave me the wages So I went down to the market Before I bought some bread Somebody took it from my pocket
Now you see why I have a suspicious mind My momma done told me You gonna have to meet all kinds
I thought the preacher stole my Cadillac So I looked him in the eye I asked him for the truth and he told me a lie Well we settled in the middle now I'm too poor to die But I seem to keep on movin and i'm too proud to cry
But I keep on moving But I seem to keep on movin Well I seem to keep on movin and I'm too proud to cry
I met a little pretty and she told me that she loved me If I wanted things to go well I should try to meet her family I bought a diamond ring and I showed it to her mother she told me it was too small And the daughter had another man Another man
So you see why I have a suspicious mind Only way I know I'm ahead Is when they tell me I'm behind
Someone took me to a restaurant and I had to eat something fast I ordered me some chicken They gave me alligator ass
If only I said all the right words
That I needed to say
I probably wouldnÂ't feel this way,
Some are born
On the wrong side of the moon
Girl itÂ's killing me
To keep hurting you
So IÂ'm writing it down in a letter
And IÂ'm hoping that youÂ'll understand
I know girl that you can do better
And itÂ's out of my hands
So go on girl
Find you a better man
Yeah better man
Well a woman like you
Is so hard to find
But to stay here with me
Is throwing pearls to the swine
Why I did you like that
Girl I can not even say
But I hope in your heart
You forgive me someday
And I know that itÂ's gonna be lonely
But I know youÂ'll do the best that you can
With me youÂ'll only end up losing
And that wasnÂ't my plan
So go on girl
Find you a better man
So IÂ'm writing it down in a letter
And IÂ'm hoping that youÂ'll understand
Cause I know girl that you can do better
And itÂ's out of my hands
So go on girl
Find you a better man
Yeah better man

There's a hole in the light and you know there's one way Won't you go in before they keel away Day would forget the night Night would forget the day See if on your journey Hope you can stay
Well its rocky and its rough Its old and its new Its bitter and its sweet Its rough and its smooth Walking through space, life has its own pace Flying high, sometimes low Lightning speed or sometimes slow
For seasons are caught in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
For seasons are caught in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
There's a hole in the light and you know there's one way Won't you go in before they keel away Day would forget the night Night would forget the day See if on your journey Hope you can stay
All of us alive and all of us will cry All of us will live and surely we will die What is the question and who am I? Hearing voices and the // in the sky
This is life its a journey, however you admit This is life its a journey, this is what you get Beat a drum, rumadam and even know the rest All religions have a sound beyond the earth
For seasons are wrapped in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
For seasons are wrapped in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
There's a hole in the light and you know there's one way Won't you go in before they keel away Day would forget the night Night would forget the day See if on your journey Hope you can stay
Do not be distracted I may die yet by your side Wrapped in pye linen You would be a fire
The seasons are wrapped in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
The seasons are wrapped in the night The colour wrapped in the light Do not be distracted That religion must happen inside
There's a hole in the light and you know there's one way Won't you go in before they keel away Day would forget the night Night would forget the day See if on your journey Hope you can stay
Do you fear me You can't stand to be near me Well i come from a different place My philosophy's from outer space My religion is strange I think it's cause you fear change Afraid to try and understand A stranger in a strange land Don't think i'm going away You best believe i'm here to stay Cause my God is better than your God
Maybe you don't like my skin Or what i believe in You don't like my prayer You don't like the clothes i wear How many people have to die For what one man might think is right The true path to like is more than one Why do you force your will with a gun Let's start another holy war I'll show you what i'm killing for My God is better than your God My God is bigger than yours My God is better than your God My God is bigger than yours
I got a case of bad love From a bad man I need you to set me free If you can

Your words they may hurt me If you cut me I might bleed I'm a human, I have feelings just like you, why can't you see You think that your transgressions Can be settled by money Send me legal letters Impress me with your paper laws and greed Paper lawmaker Empty promise maker Judas mind breaker Straight up man faker Lawmakers eat my flesh and drink my blood But I'm not for sale
Chorus
My word is not for sale My reputation is not for sale My bond is not for sale My heart is not for sale You can try to take my soul but it's not for sale You can try to take my love but it's not for sale You can try to take my voice but it's not for sale You can try to take my freedom but it's not for sale
You try to kill us with your lawyers The immoral and corrupt For those who seek the higher wisdom, we will not give up Man's law will take your breath away Man's law will take the light from day Man's law will protect the lawless Man's law will make the righteous powerless Righteous powerless lawmakers eat my flesh and drink my blood But I'm not for sale
Chorus

Mama say we rollin But I like to shake Gonna go up the road for some Christmas cake
I love that girl she got skin like silk I know Mama gonna give me chocolate milk
Ain't no black and there ain't no white Ain't no darkness and there ain't no light It's all just illusion In these different shades of life
I've been trying But I'm still not finding What it's all supposed to mean In the somewhere in between
Come to me baby See it through my eyes When you wake up in the morning And it's all a pack of lies Seems like we're always trying To unravel the disguise
Now I've been searching But I'm still uncertain What tomorrow's gonna bring
'Cause I lie for you baby And I live for you baby And I'd die for you baby There isn't anything I wouldn't do Because of how much I love you But you don't see it my way And you can't hear what I say So let's call it another day In this other world of broken dreams In the somewhere in between
Solo
I'm gonna love you anyway Ain't no doubt gonna stand in my way I'll pay the price that you want me to pay Anytime of the night or day Cause I was born to make you love me
Gunfire in the heavens Willie peat crackin' in my eyes A hungry ghost surrounds me A hooded figure walk across the sky Many people see them when the time of death is near I walk with my protectors I know just what I'm here
Well there ain't no good in fearing death, we all got to die some day
Well I know you gon come for me I hold on to nothing to be free In the sky like nature of the mind This is how to be Dissolve the veil of ignorance work on your performance what leads you into suffering will make you start reforming
And there ain't no good in fearing death cause we all got to die some day
Do you wanna think about A chance at immortality
Do you wanna think about A chance at immortality
Solo
Gunfire in the heavens Willie peat crackin' in my eyes A hungry ghost surrounds me A hooded figure walk across the sky Many people see them when the time of death is near I walk with my protectors I know just why I'm here
And there ain't no good in fearing death cause we all got to die some day
I have a little red rooster Too lazy to crow for days I have a little red rooster Too lazy to crow for days
Keep everything in the barnyard Upset in every way
Dog begin to bark Hound begin to howl I said dog begin to bark Hound begin to howl
Oh watch out strange kin people Little red rooster out on the prowl
