Rafi (305) - Power (Prayer) lyrics

[Verse 1: Raƒi] Our father who art in heaven...where are the statues? I see the Buddha, I read Neruda/ You are my ruler, my measure, my treasure/ My pleasure, I've said words/ Like giving my whole life in servitude/ I k**ed the servant I'm such a brute/ Maybe was worth it to eat the fruit/ Maybe the curtain was falling/ Maybe the serpent was balling/ God Almighty ain't stop it/ Always the might the topic/ What about the mini...from the folktales and the fables/ That enabled these kiddies to dream of turned tables/ That disabled the gritty, the sh**ty, but I'm with these/ At the bottom...paid by the hour/ See the problem...benches won't give you the power/ Sentences leaving me sour...writing's beating me up/ Words mean nothing...actions they'll cut/ Fractions of what, we're screaming bout don't mean sh**/ I'm oni, that mean sh**/ You owe me, I'll take it/ [Hook: Raƒi] Power: prevails when the source is undefined/ Power: prevails when the hordes have lost their minds/ Power: prevails when we're k**ing our own kind/ The power's not mine, the power's not mine Power: prevails when the source is undefined/ Power: prevails when the hordes have lost their minds/ Power: prevails when we're k**ing our own kind/ The power's not mine, the power's not mine [Verse 2: Raƒi] Still seeing dark days, but I can eat when I'm hungry/ Still having dark ways, but I can work and make money/ Swearing it's funny...the older I get, the richer I'm not/ The soldiers forget, they live on the blocks/ I'm hoping that this, comes out of your mouth/ We're just robots, programmed by hardware (that's nature) And software, that's programmed by day care/ And that plays fair, except for the fact that software costs money/ Ignoring the faqs, hardware malfunctions, some thing's in life can't be fixed
