《The Ballad Of Noah》歌词

[00:04:24] I am conflicted, traveling the path of the soul, so gifted

[00:04:24] Still unable to break the mold

[00:04:24] I lifted the veil and still could not see

[00:04:24] Insisted my existence began with me

[00:04:24] Seems that I lost much, lost touch of reality

[00:04:24] It cost much of the soul

[00:04:24] What a fallacy this world is at times, I can't escape

[00:04:24] See myself with new eyes, now I'm trying to take

[00:04:24] The first step on a path that I know

[00:04:24] Is paved with much difficulty

[00:04:24] So I think I must save myself

[00:04:24] From a world that is falling down all around me

[00:04:24] I hear the sounds of laughter callin' after me

[00:04:24] Fallin' too fast, my close friends are asking me

[00:04:24] Casting their glance at each other as they speak

[00:04:24] With outstretched hands like I might be a victim of circumstance

[00:04:24] But I run

[00:04:24] If you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So everybody sings the blues

[00:04:24] And if you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So you don't have to sing the blues

[00:04:24] Under the sky, across the land, with a horse

[00:04:24] It felt like a sky and the land were divorced

[00:04:24] The way, it wasn't easy, a rock in the past

[00:04:24] So what's the matter with you when the rock just laughed?

[00:04:24] Carrying a load for the conscious untoiling

[00:04:24] I went to the water and the water was boiling

[00:04:24] The load was heavy and rocks filled my course

[00:04:24] My horse drank the water and the water killed my horse

[00:04:24] I tried to keep going, weak in the knee

[00:04:24] A righteous wind blew and it was speaking to me

[00:04:24] The way seemed harder since my horse been dead

[00:04:24] I couldn't understand everything the wind said

[00:04:24] Looked up at the sky and seen something strange

[00:04:24] Returned to my country and my country was up in flames

[00:04:24] The trees were bleeding, they said they couldn't hide me

[00:04:24] Where will I run to without my horse beside me?

[00:04:24] If you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So everybody sings the blues

[00:04:24] And if you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So you don't have to sing the blues

[00:04:24] Just like king Midas turned things to gold

[00:04:24] I touched my soul and felt my warm blood turn cold

[00:04:24] I was told, we paint the picture we want to see

[00:04:24] The dream, she's the woman, I'm a machine

[00:04:24] Jacqueline is my mother but not Onassis

[00:04:24] Wearing sunglasses, taking me to pray on Sunday

[00:04:24] Not one day, but three, we attended the church

[00:04:24] Watched my father get up, grab the Bible and then work

[00:04:24] The Scripture, get the picture?

[00:04:24] Preacher in my blood

[00:04:24] And people in my hood, no threat of attack

[00:04:24] Just a jean jacket and an arcade, the fact

[00:04:24] From a ecclesiastic kid who was afraid to be black

[00:04:24] Imagine that type of ghetto

[00:04:24] It still isn't settled

[00:04:24] I play Sex Pistols and listen to heavy metal

[00:04:24] I ate lunch all by myself in a meadow

[00:04:24] And healed every scar with wishing to be a star

[00:04:24] Now it's on, so tell me why I sing a sad song

[00:04:24] Who's the pawn? Was I being fooled all along?

[00:04:24] Not at all 'cause now I'm strong

[00:04:24] Innocence deterred, was never gone

[00:04:24] I feel it, it's coming, the break of dawn

[00:04:24] If you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So everybody sings the blues

[00:04:24] And if you reach a dead end trail, pray to God it never fails

[00:04:24] We've all walked in each other's shoes

[00:04:24] So you don't have to sing the blues
