(Tricky) I confide to anything So I have to hide from everything. Everybody wants a piece of me. Rinse the origin and cease to be Sit back and let it happen, Let us take your time away I don't understand you. I don't want your time of day. If you're gonna walk, might as well walk your way, Always walk the whole ways, Forget the punk, I pack the funk. I'm gonna take a piece of you. Making money for good health, but first I learn to see myself (x2) You've promised me poems (x3) (Terry Hall) I rue the day that I ever met you, And deeply regret you getting close to me. I cannot wait to deeply neglect you, Deeply forget you, Jesus believe me, You promised me poems. You might have been my reason for livin' I gave up ungivin', gave up everything. We were a right pair of believers A couple of dreamers, so how come You hate me? You promised me poems (x4). (Martina) Dreamed of ringing voices, They contemplated choices. Taste like a rare kiss, To heighten my awareness. With all fairness, greatness, with gratitude. And simply rhymes with attitude Now do promotion and TV, and ya still can't see. We Down the hill cascade And keep away the masquerade, Dreamed of ringing voices, And you promised me poems (x4). |

It occured to me The suckers had authority Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell How long has it been? They got me sittin' in the state pen I gotta get out but that thought was thought before I contemplated a plan on the cell floor I'm not a fugitive on the run But a brother like me begun to be another one Public enemy servin' time they drew the line y'all To criticize me some crime never the less They could not understand that I'm a Black man And I could never be a veteran On the strength, the situation's unreal I got a raw deal, now I'm lookin for the steel (Tricky: Many switch in, switch on, switch off (x5)) Nevertheless they cannot understand That I'm a black man, and I could never be a veteran. On the strength of situations, I'm real. I got a raw deal, so I'm lookin' for the steel Lookin for the steel |

I can't relax I need to meditate. Yeah, I'll make 'em wait. (x2) Time moves in numbers, I count the summers, direct the drummers. Tell me you don't feel nothing, Would you like to ride on my train, or Would you like to drink from my vein? My vibe's just a (fuckin') feeling. I see the ceiling. And adjust to such a feeling. I be the prophet, slay me then we'll cross it. (repeat twice more) I'm already on the other side (repeated several times) |

[Primera.] They lead us outside, take us out quietly To the cage through the bars You see scars: results of my rage The place where I stand gives way to liquid lino Underneath the weeping willow lies a weeping whino The place where I stand gives way to liquid lino Underneath the weeping willow lies a weeping whino the mind's a crowd -- search for the the spaces And turn around time's gone, I take ten paces. Been up ahead - can't make head or tale of it I drink till I'm drunk, and I smoke till I'm senseless. You see in black and white, feel in slow motion, I drown myself in sorrow, until I wake up tomorrow... (Tricky: The illusion of...until I wake up....) |
