crocker - soul on fire lyrics
(verse 1) /conflicted since a youngster, black, white, or whatever/ labels i avoided, lost sight in the weather/ re-steered the ship, brought light cause i’m clever/ never lost verbiage, concise for the ever/ said pick a side, know your kind, h-ll the are you speaking/ said this, said that, said the other are weaklings/ man there with me, last day of the weekend/ putting money in the plate and teaching the seedlings/ quoting anecdotes of love and unbelievable faith/ though beneath he restrained, was concealing his hate/ till the inner city came, playing late in the day/ thought the game went awry, and the flock went astray/ man built a mob and they politely conveyed/ that the shepherd lost his way and no longer could stay/ there ten years old and i’m feeling betrayed/ banished all my friends, and no longer we played/
(hook) i was young and naive, thought thinking was free/
looking for the truth, that was sinking in me/
didn’t know there was lines in the city i see/
and love ain’t seem what i believed it to be/
(verse 2) /in arizona they picket, running out the illegals/ be the same politicians campaign for the steeple/ reaffirm their faith to their section of people/ to ward off suspicion they’re corrupt or they’re evil/ now they wanna profile, to help with the seizure/ both sides with jesus, either church or cathedral/ all in a land that don’t belong to us neither/ d-mning god’s people, protecting our freedom/ up in newberry, heard a man took a beating/ that led to his death, from the earth he was leaving/ pigs said a hate crime ain’t thought they conceiving / though he was dragged eight miles, barely breathing and bleeding/ kids without a father they loved and they needed/ and a wife all alone left to pick up the pieces/plastered on the news, prime-time in the evening/ headline fodder for whomever to see it/
[feather fly focus]
/i’ve got a lot hate in my heart/
/martin luther/
/i pride in not playing my part/
/target nuisance/
/looking outside of my window, the wind blows/
/and the seasons change, but i still seem the same/
/i can’t run from the bias/
/even in private/
/so i keep my eyes from the violence/
/by being honest/
/livin’ in the sh-ll that created my conscious/
/or will i live to tell how i made the profit/
/i’m in/ way over my head/
/but still holding on/
/but i can’t hide in the shed/
/through the cold and storm/
/i know the sun’ll shine again/
/when you least expect/
/that’s why i’m grinding for my kin/
/’cause i need the check/
/i need the rest, but i’ll take it in death/
/i’m making my steps/
/headed in the direction that’s next/
/so, if you don’t mind, i’ll quiet and let crocker talk/
/and the hook should m-ssage your thoughts/
