Lyrics

Jah Jah... I'm a drifting stranger In the land of the not so free Where there's never care for a weary soul In a reckless society Where a poor man can't have equality Or his offspring a bright morrow And the fight takes toll on the tired bones Leaving almost nowhere to go But we must keep tumbling and fighting on 'Cause I've made my discoveries That we can't ever seem to realize Man's his own greatest enemy A lion is only a threat to man When man crosses on his domain But a man will always be cruel to man And that way will never be changed So I must believe That there's something greater than me To keep up the fight I've just got to see That there's something greater than me Take your head out the clouds and look till you see That there's something greater than me Jail me wrongfully and I'll still be free 'Cause there's something greater than me Jah Jah calling Oh calling Man still tries to separate His own brothers with class and creed Upper class, middle class and lower class With the lower following lead Separation shows like a sore thumb eye And it spreads out rapid and fast Man on dying bed needs a donor's blood Does he request a certain class? No, no! No! No, no! But now who am I? Just a wanderer Passing judgment and kicking fuss Because death is a crucial part of life When man returns to nothing but dust Now I wipe my tears and I stand to pierce Smiling off that class and creed game 'Cause when rich and poor convert back to dust That dust texture remains the same So I must believe That there's something greater than me To keep up the fight I've just got to see That there's something greater than me Take your head out the clouds and look till you see That there's something greater than me Jail me wrongfully and I'll still be free 'Cause there's something greater than me Jah Jah calling Oh calling The mind's description of drug pushers Make them out to look just like we But can drugs slip in through a tight system Without any authority? Those small fries like we distributing it And taking life without mercy Take a nice trip to any system yard Do we look like authority? No, no! No, no! Religions crying religions down Leaving youth to feel so confused False prophets counting the profits gained As religion is fully abused While world leaders seemingly more concerned For their own good welfare and bliss Try to hide the truth from the whole wide world Racism no longer exists So I must believe That there's something greater than me To keep up the fight I've just got to see That there's something greater than me Take your head out the clouds and look till you see That there's something greater than me Jail me wrongfully and I'll still be free 'Cause there's something greater than me Jah Jah calling Oh calling
