Messenger |
| Shooting down yah brothers with your lyrical bullets |
| Teaching the children to go to war |
| Don’t you know? |
| Life or death comes from your tongue |
| It’s poison or pleasure which side are you on? |
| Cut down yah sister with your piercing melodies. |
| I am not the writer |
| I am just the messenger |
| The end is nigh, don’t close your eyes |
| I’ve got something to say but will you hear |
| I’ve got a burden to bear |
| Who will hear let him hear |
| Who will fight let him go to war |
| Who will dare to step out of line and |
| Live for truth withheld from all? |
| Who will speak let him speak |
| Who will sing let them say a word |
| Who will challenge the life we live |
| By trying to forgive? |
| Now everyday on the news the same |
| Somebody’s dying and someone’s to blame |
| They only tell you what they want you to hear |
| They speak of justice but nobody lives there. |
| We need a miracle to stay alive, |
| Cause breathing don’t count no more we got to try |
| You woke this morning thinking that you’re free |
| Or is that what you’re controlled to believe? |
| I am not the writer |
| I am just the messenger |
| The end is nigh, don’t close your eyes |
| I’ve got something to say but will you hear |
| I’ve got a burden to bear. |
| Now I am not pretending |
| Freedom is in ending |
| It’s an illusion that you’re fighting for |
| You’re a slave to the system don’t let them feed you lies no more |
