Transparent People |
Transparent people we can see right through |
Pass your physical being which does not define you |
Your physical action, is a mechanical reaction |
To feelings that are too closed to hold! |
Your hands and all the busy mechanisms of defense |
Guilt in your heart, and your face innocence |
I know words coming out of your mouth don’t make sense! |
Oh no, you don’t make sense! |
The way you’re teaching, and you’re preaching to me |
Thinking that you’re reaching, but we realize |
That we can see through your lies |
It don’t make sense |
The way you teach the children all the wrong things |
Don’t wanna to grow up, and be no strong team |
Realize that they can see through your lies! |
The wicked mans around me and I |
don’t feel no way |
No matter what they do, I keep that smile on my face |
And watch the waters running, and the children are gon' play |
I wish for them the happiness I found along the way! |
If I teach them right from wrong and never let them go astray |
I never want to see them in the hardships and the pain, |
The hardships and the pain! |
Oh no, you don’t make sense! |
The way you’re teaching, and your preaching to me |
Thinking that you’re reaching, but we realize |
That we can see through your lies |
You can’t judge a book by the color of it’s cover |
Think of every woman as your sister or your mother |
Now in every man you’re bredren like your father or your brother |
And try to do some good for life, we’ll have to further |
And you’re walking of it rightiousness in all your days |
Will be brighter, uh, so much, so much, so much! |
Brighter than that mid day sun, again |
Oh no, you don’t make sense! |
The way you’re teaching, and your preaching to me |
Thinking that you’re reaching, but we realize |
That we can see through your lies |
