Sins of the Father - Wilbert Roget, II

I am the crazy man who lives inside your head But I think I'm breaking through the wall You are the innocent convicted of the crime No one was ever there to catch you when you fall I see the diamonds but you only see the rock I need to run and you only crawl It's time to open up all the doors that you keep locked Nobody gives without a take let's take it all Oh you've been twisted into pieces By the hands of your emotions How much longer are you going to pay For yesterday Sins of the father One more crucifixion, one more cross to bear You're a hole in a photograph Go on lose it in the city, the city can feel no shame See the world with electric eyes They call it mystery But any fool could see You thought he walked on the water And if the pain was gone And you were free to run away And get out Would you get out of there Or do you really care It's not safe or easy And maybe when you're gone You just won't belong At all Oh you're the only witness To the murder of an angel How much longer are you going to pay For yesterday Sins of the father Now it's just another crucifixion One more cross to bear Go on lose it in the city Take a look at the world You've got electric eyes

I lie awake at night And I think about it Where I have been And who I' ve been with 'Cause all around me I see them dropping like flies Everytime they tell us We say it doesn' t exist And all we wanna do Just to have some fun Reverand Jackson says The time has come That the holy book Has been talking about The good Rev. also said Where there' s pleasure There will always be danger On his knees I heard him pray so hard He said God save your children Chorus: Save us from the sins of the flesh Things we have learned From our good & loving parents When temptation comes It all becomes useless Like an ashtray on a motorbike Everything you do remember The body bag hangs Next to the first aid kit It' s your life It' s your world I' m just passing through Reverand Jackson said The time has come That the holy book Has been talking about Chorus till fade

I've been a good boy And I've behaved Time to go and I won't be saved I ain't no sinner I've never be The sins of the next man They come looking They come looking for me Now satan wanna take my soul Now satan wanna take my soul He gonna hang me on the wall Satan wants me And I fight the temptation The greed and the lust I never sleep now The sleep and the good night night now And we've got no room Oh, for this handsome man I'm too goodlooking yeah! To be touched by the hand Oh, hand of God, hold on to me now Cus I know I know satan gonna take my soul I know satan wanna take my soul yeah He wanna hang me on the wall Satan wants me, cause I'm beautiful I fight the temptation The greed and the lust It's ashes to ashes Dust to dust Why must I suffer? Why all the pain? Why must I burn? I'm not to blame I've been a good boy And I'll behave My time to go, and I won't be saved I ain't no sinner, I'll never be The sins of the next man They come looking, they come looking for me I know satan wanna take my soul now I know satan wanna take my soul yeah He gonna hang me on the wall Satan wants me I know satan wanna take my soul I know satan wanna take my soul now He gonna hang me on the wall Satan wants me, he wants me They come looking I know satan wanna take my soul I know satan wanna take my soul now He wanna hang me on the wall Satan wants me
