Could you be lost Are you so free, do you long to be When the sun goes down, Do you feel the feelin' there's no-one near You know it's such a mystery how you washed up over me And I couldn't breathe, I couldn't speak, lest I drown But it's my kind I'll never be cruel and I'll always play the fool To be as loveless, as shameless as you. But I'm so blind I'll do it again I feel your eyes sink in So faithless as you've been. Yes I'm so lost I am not free but I long to be When life goes down, do you feel as though you're gonna drown You're going down you're going down But it's my kind I'll never be cruel and I'll always play the fool To be as loveless, as shameless as you. But I'm so blind I'll do it again I feel your eyes sink in So faithless as you've been. Yes I'm so lost, but I'm not free Yes I'm so lost, but I long to be But I long to be But it's my kind I'll never be cruel and I'll always play the fool To be as loveless, as shameless as you. But I'm so blind I'll do it again I feel your eyes sink in So faithless as you've been. It's my kind I'll never be cruel and I'll always play the fool To be as loveless, as shameless as you. But I'm so blind I'll do it again I feel your eyes sink in So faithless as you've been.

[Maxi Jazz] If you place a thing in the centre of your life That lacks the power to nourish It will eventually poison everything that you are And destroy you As simple a thing as an idea Or your perspective on yourself or the world No-one can be the source of your contempt It lies within, in the centre Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through Only with mellow are you thin enough to slide through Don't let nothing ride you If the sun or the moon should give way to doubt They would immediately go out One swallow don't make a summer But tomorrow has to start somewhere.

Watch me ride... Take my words and the bass, Taste, and then swallow me, I'm chasing the devil Cos you're level if you follow me For quality, and I make no apology For linking my thinking with computer technology. Cos this is like a modern day hymn For the new church, I search for the truth, I've got a hole in my tooth, I'm Uncouth, yes sir, I'm from the street university Where we learn to earn even in times of adversity. And I will find the easy way out of a hard time Petty crime sometime, But now I'm inclined to find A fresh direction, Check out the funky section. Cos this is the part where I start to rip up words, A comfort coming straight from my heart, I'm not a mystic, my views are realistic, simplistic, One special brew I get pissed quick, And get sick so I don't do it no more, I won't find peace of mind Rolling around on the floor. The point I want to make, Is you can never escape from your fate, The mistake is to take without givin', From within, You know how I'm living, I'm cool, I'm looking after myself, And I could never place wealth before my spirit, I feel it's unhealthy, The devil creep around you so stealthy, stealthy 'Till you get bold, rush the gold, And before you're much older, You're soul is sold, where's it getting ya, Competition starts sweating ya, Gold-diggers setting you up, Soon be forgetting your existence, Do you need a for instance, I have to admire your persistence In sticking to a game plan, That brings you pain man, And at the end of the day nothing is gained, So listen to the voice within, I'll see ya later, Pay heed to the Grand Oral Disseminator. Quiet, still, you feel there's nothing going on Until you realise the space behind your eyes Is filling up with something like peace As your thoughts cease and Pleasure grows in your soul. I ain't a Christian, sometimes I feel like dissing em, but listen I'm just trying to tell ya what I know If you would once relax, chill to the max These words on wax will cause sweet bells To ring in your soul. If I say God is alive I know you wanna know why Babies die, food don't grow, why trains smash, planes crash Situation mash and slam bam your fellow man Money's in fashion, huh, it ain't rational, Because dam it, he didn't just give us the planet And its wealth, deep inside your soul he left a piece of himself The lord is in here. His voice is small. You keep lying and trying, Denying the call from inside You can't hide responsibility So decide from today just how it's going to be, Thou shalt have no other god but me, He can set you free see, But you have to listen, And who's that false idol I see you kissing? Money, success and untold wealth, good health And all you have to do is love yourself. It's a fact you'll attract all the things that you lack, So just chill And get off the racetrack And take a pace back, face facts, It's your decision, You don't need eyes to see, You need vision, Continue to view the lord as being separated And you'll be living a lie that's being perpetrated, For many centuries, I'm on a mission, These facts in my rap, I don't sing, But I want to share the peace that they bring, My name is G.O.D. The Grand Oral Disseminator

The snakes and arrows a child is heir to Are enough to leave a thousand cuts We build our defenses, a place of safety And leave the darker places unexplored Sometimes the fortress is too strong Or the love is too weak What should have been our armor Becomes a sharp and angry sword Our better natures seek elevation A refuge for the coming night No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one We hold beliefs as a consolation A way to take us out of ourselves Meditation, or medication A comfort, or a promised reward Sometimes that spirit is too strong Or the flesh is too weak Sometimes the need is just too great For the solace we seek The suit of shining armor Becomes a keen and bloody sword No one gets to their heaven without a fight A refuge for the coming night A future of eternal light No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one Confused alarms of struggle and flight Blood is drained of color By the flashes of artillery light No one gets to their heaven without a fight The battle flags are flown At the feet of a god unknown No one gets to their heaven, heaven No one gets to their heaven without a fight Sometimes the damage is too great Or the will is too weak What should have been our armor Becomes a sharp and burning sword No one gets to their heaven without a fight A refuge for the coming night A future of eternal light No one gets to their heaven without a fight No one No one gets to their heaven without a fight

Well, you can stake that claim Good work is the key to good fortune Winners take that praise Losers seldom take that blame If they don't take that game And sometimes the winner takes nothing We draw our own designs Fortune has to make that frame We go out in the world and take our chances Fate is just the weight of circumstances That's the way that lady luck dances So roll the bones Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Faith is cold as ice Why are little ones born only to suffer For the want of immunity or a bowl of rice? Well, who would hold a price On the heads of the innocent children If there's some immortal power to control the dice? We come into the world and take our chances Fate is just the weight of circumstances That's the way that lady luck dances Roll the bones Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen? Jack relax, get busy with the facts No zodiacs or almanacs, no maniacs in polyester slacks Just the facts gonna kick some gluteus max It's a parallax, you dig? You move around, the small gets big, it's a rig It's action, reaction, random interaction So who's afraid of a little abstraction? Can't get no satisfaction from the facts? You better run, boy A fact's a fact, from Nome to Rome, boy What's the deal, spin the wheel If the dice are hot, take a shot Play your cards, show us what you got What you're holding, if the cards are cold don't go folding Luck is golden, she favors the bold, that's cold Stop throwing stones, the night has a thousand saxophones So get out there and rock and roll the bones, get busy Roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why does it happen, because it happens Roll the bones, roll the bones Why are we here, because we're here Roll the bones Because we're here
