Blind World |
| What is the world coming to? |
| The way I feel about my life right now is as if I don’t |
| Do something quick that I might end up sick or homicidal |
| Appreciate the blessings lingering in my vibrato |
| Administrate the lessons I’m singing in my recital |
| Give it another title, call it the daily bread |
| A special formula you fix to get the baby fed |
| It’s brain food, that kind they ooze into a baby’s head |
| So he won’t be misled and when the baby’s dead |
| Bury him where they buried Terry just to grow a tree up |
| They cutting down the rainforest looking for space to free up |
| And paving paradise with parking lots where buildings be up |
| What is the world coming to? |
| It’s really messing me up |
| I got a brand new nephew in about a year |
| His lungs will be older than he is from the cloudy air |
| Not saying cloudy like the molecules of H20 |
| I’m talking about the factories and fumes, whatever you know |
| And every time I’m driving, I’m thinking «I'm such a culo!» |
| My contribution of pollution isn’t very cool though |
| But what am I to do though? |
| I got to work to live |
| And if I happen to be living where my working is |
| Then will I ever learn to celebrate it through my kids |
| One day I’ll have 'em maybe but first I need a lady |
| And will I give her all my time and will she really love me |
| And will she give me shelter when the storms are up above me |
| I know sometimes it be my personality is ugly |
| And no amount of make up can make up for that |
| But know I recognize a game and when I’m up to bat |
| I’m gonna put a little change into the thinking cap |
| Because to change the world you gotta change your mind |
| We can’t go on living wrong inside of the same design |
| It gotta be that you and me agree to make a difference |
| Put up a canvas and manipulate the color pigments |
| To paint a portrait of tomorrow full of broader figments |
| In your imagination could you imagine nations? |
| At peace and harmony instead of genocidal warring |
| Where borders don’t exist and nobody’s considered foreign |
| Mother Earth is respected, animals are protected |
| Society perfected, Capitalism’s rejected |
| What is the world coming to? |
| Almost the end of us |
| And it’s the evils in the world today we tend to trust |
| How could we let the ashes crumble till they come to dust |
| I guess that’s what is meant to happen if you blind enough |
| If you ready for what is coming, then come on with me |
| Follow my voice, if you can hear it let the song lift me |
| Into the graces of Heaven’s hugs, to learn love’s embrace |
| And share with every beautiful face |
| I place my right hand on my heart |
| And say, let me be the start |
| I pound my fist on my chest and request |
| Allow me to be the test, and when I’m at my best |
| I can make a Catholic priest confess |
| Cause guilt is worse than the parasite in his flesh |
| And the flesh is weak but the pride is strong |
| And it can make a little lie last a little bit longer |
| Than it was ever intended by whom ever intended to send it |
| Watch the evil manifest that it rendered |
| And I hope you remembered your place in this |
| Look up at a shooting star, go 'head and make a wish |
| Hopefully it will be granted by the gods |
| Against all odds you’ll be wise enough to see through the facades |
| What is the world coming to? |
| I wish I had a answer |
| Better than seeing human beings as a living cancer |
| Better than being what I’m seeing hope I have a chance to |
| Raise the consciousness |
| Peace ya’ll and god bless |
| Blind World |
