[Verse 1]
I love to see my people living in love
I hate to see them fighting and swimming in blood
Nuff neglect the farming, scorning the mud
Yet they want to be the first to reap the fruit as it buds
Oh, they fill the earth with prison, church, and whore house
Love the rum bar, yet they hate the pure house
Dem take the microchip and override the poor out
Less food, more drought and more mouth
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go till the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil
Fi de coil so many go defile
Slave master spit inna dem face and take that with a smile
Da banks of the nile so mild and so fertile; acres more than ah zillion mile
People acting vile; pick up cannibal style
Wan devour mama, papa, and child, oh
Sew life seed and mek it buss har
Dem sey dem ting dem tek too long fi grow and start to cuss har
I could'n't trust them and those as how I trust her
Such is life, dem say ah just her

Some sey fi government, some sey fi matter land
Still no wan' share although dem gotta lot ah land
Dem wan fi turn ah gun range and shot Iran.
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go till the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil

The truth is tearing up my heart
i can't recognise this place
the endless road without a stop sign
can't even find a stranger this time
Chorus
why am i still holding back my tears
in this loneliness there's nothing left to fear
every chord still seems a wonder
how we could be together
everytime i ask if this would be the last
Why am i still talking to myself
hoping you will have the keys to my cell
every song might calm the weather
but it just draws me deeper
how do i get out of this
i think~ i never will
A crystal forming in the eye
maybe this would be the last
the winding path down my face
till i begin to taste the bitterness inside
Repeat chorus
Why am i still holding back my tears
in this loneliness there's nothing left to fear
every chord still seems a wonder
how we could be together
everytime i ask if this would be the last
Why am i still talking to myself
hoping you will have the keys to my cell
every song might calm the weather
but it just draws me deeper
how do i get out of this
i think~ i never will
Girl you know I miss you so
I didn't know you had to go
You've had enough of our distance baby
Before I had the chance to say
I'm staying with you
For the rest of my life Oh Oh~
Don't keep telling me these words
You don't know how much it hurts Woo
And I'll promise you eternity
If you promise me your stay
But now it's too late
I'm no longer the man that I was
I will go on without her
Like a fool who's too sure
I'm like a bird who's lost her wing
A fire without it's flame
I don't know how to be strong
When my love has to move on
I am a song without a soul
Now that she's gone
What's left of us is this song
Don't keep telling me these words Oh no
You don't know how much it hurts Woo
And I'll promise you eternity
If you promise me your stay
But now it's too late
I'm no longer the man that I was Wu~
I will go on without her Wu~
Like a fool who's too sure
I'm like a bird who's lost her wing
A fire without it's flame
I don't know how to be strong
When my love has to move on
I am a song without a soul
Now that she's gone
What's left of us is this song Woo
Oh yeah I know I don't know
Baby I am know I am a foul
And I will go on without her
Like a fool who's too sure
I'm like a bird who's lost her wing
A fire without it's flame
I don't know how to be strong
When my love has to move on
I am a song without a soul
Now that she's gone
What's left of us is this song
This is our song without a soul
Now that you're gone
Cries in a distance Can't stop the tremble I'm just
awaiting my turn
Hiding will never Save me forever The guns gonna get me
for sure
Dear God I pray why won't you be my friend Come to me
and take my hand
Like mama would say Everything will be okay
All i hear is 3 2 1 The scream from the the guns
And them 1 by 1 No one gets to run
Someone's dad or mom Sister, brother and son
No.....no...
All i feel is 1 2 3 My tears start to bleed Smell of
roses on my feet
I feel sore..... I fall..... I call.... I crawl
Cries in a distance Can't stop the tremble I'm just
awaiting my turn
Hiding will never Save me forever The guns gonna get me
for sure
Dear God I pray why won't you be my friend Come to me
and take my hand
Like mama would say Everything will be okay
All i hear is 3 2 1 The scream from the the guns
And them 1 by 1 No one gets to run
Someone's dad or mom Sister, brother and son
No.....no...
All i feel is 1 2 3 My tears start to bleed Smell of
roses on my feet
I feel sore..... I fall..... I call.... I crawl
All i hear is 3 2 1 The scream from the the guns
And them 1 by 1 No one gets to run
Someone's dad or mom Sister, brother and son
All i feel is 1 2 3 My tears start to bleed Smell of
roses on my feet
I feel sore..... I fall..... I call.... I crawl
